Health-related Quality of Life following Mild (Covid)-19 Illness
Objectives: A cluster analysis was undertaken to help explain reported differences in health-related quality of life among acute respiratory illness (ARI) outpatients. Methods: Symptomatic enrollees (18-87 years) completed the Short Form Health Survey at enrollment and 6-8 weeks later from March 30, 2020 through April 30, 2021. We compared changes in physical health composite score (PCS) and mental health composite score (MCS) across high, medium…
Willingness to Co-receive Covid-19 and Influenza Vaccines among Outpatients
Objectives: This study was designed to examine future willingness to co-receive COVID-19 and influenza vaccines and factors associated with that willingness among outpatients with acute respiratory illness (ARI). Methods: Outpatients ≥15 years with respiratory symptoms for ≤10 days were surveyed about vaccination behaviors and intentions. We used multinomial logistic regression to assess associations between demographic, behavioral and health-rel…
Spirituality, quality of life and frailty in community-dwelling adults ≥ 50 years
Differences between Frequentist and Bayesian inference in routine surveillance for influenza vaccine effectiveness
Bayesian estimates of influenza VE can differ from frequentist estimates to a clinically meaningful degree when VE diverges substantially from previous seasons
Intention to Receive Influenza Vaccine after an Acute Respiratory Illness
The combined experience of not being vaccinated against influenza and seeking medical attention for an ARI seemed to influence approximately one-half of unvaccinated participants to consider influenza vaccination for next season
Cost-effectiveness of programs to eliminate disparities in elderly vaccination rates in the United States
A practice-based vaccination program designed to eliminate disparities in elderly minority vaccination rates and including four interventions would be cost-effective
A community–academic partnership develops a more responsive model to providing depression care to disadvantaged adults in the US
Background: Socioeconomically disadvantaged adults experience greater healthcare disparities and increased risk of depression compared to higher-income groups. Aim: To create a depression care model for disadvantaged adults utilizing service agencies, through a community–academic partnership. Methods: Using participatory research methods, an organizational needs assessment was performed to ascertain depression care needs, identify barriers to cli…
Assessing Disparities in Adult Vaccination Using Multimodal Approaches in Primary Care Offices
Impact of the 2004 Influenza Vaccine Shortage on Patients from Inner City Health Centers
Beliefs and Attitudes about Influenza Immunization among Parents of Children with Chronic Medical Conditions over a Two-Year Period
Predictors of Lower Endoscopy Use Among Patients at Three Inner-City Neighborhood Health Centers
Tailored Interventions to Increase Influenza Vaccination in Neighborhood Health Centers Serving the Disadvantaged
Objectives. We designed and evaluated interventions to increase adult immunizations within inner-city health centers. Methods. Interventions included reminders, standing orders, and walk-in “flu shot clinics.” Patients were surveyed and records evaluated. Results. Records from 1 center showed that immunization rates increased from 24% to 30% (P Conclusions. Tailored interventions can improve immunization rates at inner-city health centers
Behavioral self-regulation in the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus
Psychologic stress and blood glucose levels in nondiabetic subjects
This study analyzed the effect of a standardized psychologic stressor on blood glucose levels in nondiabetic subjects. Subjects participated in a stress and nonstress session, presented in counterbalanced order. At each session, subjects were fed a carbohydrate load and blood glucose responses were measured 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min after the load. On nonstress days, subjects relaxed after drinking the load, while on stress days subjects partici…
