Abstract
Objective The perinatal period presents several opportunities to identify and treat perinatal mental health and substance use disorders by integrating into existing care pathways. We aimed to examine the role of birth doulas in supporting their clients' perinatal mental health. Methods Thematic content analysis of focus groups with doulas, and interviews with doula clients was used to characterize the doula-client relationship, investigate whether and how doulas provide mental health and substance use support, and identify barriers and recommendations for doulas to support their clients' mental health. Participants were doula clients from communities underserved due to race, income, language and culture. Results Doulas and clients reported positive relationships, supported by congruence in culture, language, and lived experiences. Doulas varied in their confidence in identifying perinatal mental health problems, though most agreed that doulas could support their clients' mental health to different degrees. Barriers to engaging in perinatal mental health treatments included low perceived need and socio-economic burden. Conclusions With adequate support and training, doulas can play an important role in supporting their client's emotional well-being.

Abstract
PURPOSE While fecal incontinence is a primary concern for many children with anorectal malformations (ARM), urinary incontinence is also prevalent in this population. Racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in urinary continence have been observed in other conditions, but have not been previously evaluated in ARM. We aimed to evaluate urinary continence and associated demographic and socioeconomic characteristics in individuals with ARM. METHODS We performed a multicenter retrospective study of ARM patients evaluated at sites participating in the Pediatric Colorectal and Pelvic Learning Consortium (PCPLC). We included all patients with ARM 3 years and older. The primary outcome was urinary continence which was categorized as complete (no accidents), daytime (accidents at night), partial (rare or occasional accidents), and none (frequent accidents or no continence). We evaluated for associations between urinary continence and race, sex, age, insurance status, and adoption status, employing Kruskal-Wallis and trend tests. Secondary outcomes included bladder management strategies such as clean intermittent catheterization and continence surgery. P-value < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS A total of 525 patients with ARM were included. Overall, 48% reported complete urinary continence, and continence was associated with greater age. For school-aged children (age ≥ 5 years), 58% reported complete continence, while 30% reported none. Public insurance and adoption status were associated with decreased likelihood of incontinence. CONCLUSIONS We observed a novel finding of disparities in urinary continence for children with ARM related to insurance and adoption status. Further investigation regarding the etiologies of these inequities is needed in order to affect clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Timbre is a major structuring force in music and one of the most important and ecologically relevant features of auditory events. We used sound stimuli selected on the basis of previous psychophysiological studies to investigate the neural correlates of timbre perception. Our results indicate that both the left and right hemispheres are involved in timbre processing, challenging the conventional notion that the elementary attributes of musical perception are predominantly lateralized to the right hemisphere. Significant timbre-related brain activation was found in well-defined regions of posterior Heschl's gyrus and superior temporal sulcus, extending into the circular insular sulcus. Although the extent of activation was not significantly different between left and right hemispheres, temporal lobe activations were significantly posterior in the left, compared to the right, hemisphere, suggesting a functional asymmetry in their respective contributions to timbre processing. The implications of our findings for music processing in particular and auditory processing in general are discussed.
