  • System dynamics modeling in support of community-based decision-making to reduce opioid overdose fatalities

    Open AccessTurner Canty, Matthew R Lootens et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Both New York State (NYS) and the United States have experienced heightened levels of opioid overdose death and prevalence of opioid use in recent decades. While evidence-based practices (EBPs) to address opioid use and prevent overdose fatalities exist, their reach in many communities remains limited. Persistent systems-level barriers must be overcome to support and sustain effective EBP implementation. This paper describes the Systems Think Tan…

  • Citywide park renovations and changes in perceived stress

    Open AccessRachel L Thompson, Katarzyna E Wyka et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    In one of the first and largest studies on park quality improvement and mental health, park renovation near one's home was associated with decreased perceived stress among divorced/separated/widowed adults and middle-aged frequent park users. Frequent users of renovated parks experienced a larger drop in perceived stress than infrequent users, suggesting that high-quality parks may be an important pre-condition to the benefits of frequent park us…

  • Adolescent health behavior profiles and associations with mental health in a longitudinal study

    Open AccessKatherine M Kidwell, Rebecca L Brock et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2025Referencias: 67

    To characterize adolescent health behavior profiles and associations with mental health, mixture models using data from two assessment points ( N = 201; Female = 53.7%, Time 1 m -age = 15.4 years; Time 2 m -age = 16.3 years) identified three distinct health behavior patterns. Profile 1 (27.9% of sample) had overall healthy behaviors (e.g. diet, physical activity, sleep), except nearly half tried e-cigarettes. Profile 2 (51.9%) had above average p…

  • Leveraging systems science and design thinking to advance implementation science

    Open AccessTerry T-K Huang, Emily A Callahan et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024

    Many public health challenges are characterized by complexity that reflects the dynamic systems in which they occur. Such systems involve multiple interdependent factors, actors, and sectors that influence health, and are a primary driver of challenges of insufficient implementation, sustainment, and scale of evidence-based public health interventions. Implementation science frameworks have been developed to help embed evidence-based intervention…

  • Evaluating the outcomes and implementation determinants of interventions co-developed using human-centered design to promote healthy eating in restaurants

    Open AccessMelissa Fuster, Emily Dimond et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Background Restaurants are an emerging yet underutilized setting to facilitate healthier eating, particularly among minoritized communities that disproportionately experience health inequities. The present study aimed to examine outcomes from interventions co-developed using Human-Centered Design (HCD) in two Latin American restaurants, including sales of healthier menu items (HMI) and the consumer nutrition environment. In addition, we aimed to …

  • The association of park use and park perception with quality of life using structural equation modeling

    Open AccessHanish Kodali, Hanish P Kodali et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Introduction The literature is limited on the impact of neighborhood parks on quality of life (QoL) and the mechanism linking them. Methods In this paper, we applied the structural equation model to data from a cross-sectional sample of 650 participants in low-income communities of New York City, we examined the associations of neighborhood park use vs. park perception and QoL, and whether these associations were mediated through self-reported pe…

  • Insights from a cross-sectional binational study comparing obesity among nonimmigrant Colombians in their home country and Colombian immigrants in the U.S

    Open AccessCarlos Devia, Karen R Flórez et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Colombian immigrants in NYC exhibit a higher prevalence of obesity compared to their nonimmigrant counterparts back home and sex strengthens this relationship. More obesity research is needed to understand the immigration experience of Colombians in the U.S. and the underlying mechanisms for sex difference. Public health action focused on women in Colombia and both Colombian men and women immigrants in the U.S. is warranted to avert the long-term…

  • Perceived neighborhood environment walkability and health-related quality of life among predominantly Black and Latino adults in New York City

    Open AccessJiaqi Zhu, Hanish Kodali et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Among NYC residents living in minoritized neighborhoods, mitigating negative aspects of the neighborhood environment may be more crucial than adding positive features in terms of HR-QoL. Our study points to the need to investigate further the role of the built environment in urban, minoritized communities

  • Hepatitis C virus risk among young people who inject drugs

    Open AccessPedro Mateu-Gelabert, Pedro Mateu‐gelabert et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background Injection drug use (IDU) is the leading risk factor for hepatitis C virus (HCV) transmission in the U.S. While the general risk factors for HCV transmission are known, there is limited work on how these factors interact and impact young people who inject drugs (YPWID). Methods Project data were drawn from a study of 539 New York City (NYC) residents ages 18-29 who were recruited via Respondent-Driven Sampling and, reported past-month n…

  • Promoting healthy eating in Latin American restaurants

    Open AccessMelissa Fuster, Rosa Abreu-Runkle et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    LARs can positively influence eating behaviors but doing so requires balancing public health goals and business profitability. LARs also faced various constraints that require different levels of assistance and resources, underscoring the need for innovative engagement approaches, including incentives, to promote these changes

  • Qualitative System Dynamics Modeling to Support Community Planning in Opioid Overdose Prevention

    Open AccessNasim S Sabounchi, David W Lounsbury et al.ARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice2022Referencias: 2

    SD modeling is a novel approach to helping community stakeholders to see the inter-connectedness of actors, factors and sectors and the need for multiple mutually reinforcing strategies to avert opioid overdose and fatality. Social workers could play a key role in linking actions across sectors in such a complex system

  • The Role of the Physical and Social Environment in Observed and Self-Reported Park Use in Low-Income Neighborhoods in New York City

    Open AccessJavier E Otero Peña, Javier Otero Peña et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    Physical and social environments of parks and neighborhoods influence park use, but the extent of their relative influence remains unclear. This cross-sectional study examined the relationship between the physical and social environment of parks and both observed and self-reported park use in low-income neighborhoods in New York City. We conducted community- ( n = 54 parks) and individual-level ( n = 904 residents) analyses. At the community leve…

  • Joint international consensus statement for ending stigma of obesity

    Open AccessFrancesco Rubino, Rebecca M Puhl et al.ARTICLENature Medicine2020

    People with obesity commonly face a pervasive, resilient form of social stigma. They are often subject to discrimination in the workplace as well as in educational and healthcare settings. Research indicates that weight stigma can cause physical and psychological harm, and that affected individuals are less likely to receive adequate care. For these reasons, weight stigma damages health, undermines human and social rights, and is unacceptable in …
