This article presents findings from an exploratory, mixed methods study to: (1) Ascertain whether Latina immigrant clients of a healthcare clinic for uninsured patients suffer a higher rate of PTSD compared to the citizen population at large and (2) Explore whether factors unique to immigrants, such as surviving human smuggling, would predict PTSD. Two validated instruments were deployed with clients who agreed to be screened (n = 62). Ten percen…
Diabetes, obesity, and recommended fruit and vegetable consumption in relation to food environment sub-types
These results suggest that there are sub-types within larger categories of food environments that are differentially associated with adverse health outcomes. These observations support the specific food establishment composition of an area may be an important component of the food establishment-health relationship
Past residence outside of the United States is associated with diet quality in adults currently residing in the United States
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate healthy dietary factors in relation to prior residence outside the United States (US) among university-affiliated individuals currently residing in the US. METHODS: Current diet information was collected via a 4-day food record and residential history data were collected by in-person interview for 114 individuals. RESULTS: Residence outside of the US at any point during the interviewee's life was associated with higher diet…
Fruit and vegetable intakes in relation to plasma nutrient concentrations in women in Shanghai, China

Frequency of soy food consumption and serum isoflavone concentrations among Chinese women in Shanghai
Objective: The food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) can be an efficient tool to evaluate dietary intake in large, population-based studies, especially for specific foods. The objective of this study was to validate the assessment of soy and isoflavone (daidzein and genistein) intakes, measured by an FFQ, by comparing intakes with serum isoflavone concentrations. Design and setting: Soy and isoflavone intakes and serum isoflavone concentrations were…
