in the Aug. 29 issue of the U.S. Centers for ******** Control and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Adam Rowh, M.D., and Shane Jack, Ph.D., from the CDC in Atlanta, analyzed changes in the incidence and characteristics of intimate partner ********* using data from 49 states (all except Florida), the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico reported to the National Violent ****** Reporting System (2018 through 2021).

The researchers identified 3,991 female victims of intimate partner ********* (median victim age, 38 years). Most incidents occurred at the victim’s residence (68.0 percent) and involved a male suspect (98.5 percent), a single victim (61.4 percent), and a firearm (66.6 percent). One in five of the suspects (20.3 percent) were known to have a previous history of abusing the victim, 15.8 percent had suspected alcohol or substance use near the time of the incident, 14.7 percent had contact with law enforcement during the 12 months preceding the *********, and 6.0 percent were known to have mental illness that directly contributed to the *********. The rates of intimate partner ********* were similar for 2018 to 2019 (0.97 per 100,000) and 2020 to 2021 (0.95 per 100,000). During 2020 to 2021, victims were more frequently ****** (32.1 versus 27.3 percent during 2018 to 2019) and less frequently White (47.7 versus 51.2 percent during 2018 to 2019).

“The exacerbation of ******* disparities highlights the importance of comprehensive prevention efforts and further research into the influences of structural factors on intimate partner *********, including *********,” the authors write.
