Expanding team-based care for hypertension and cardiovascular risk management with HEARTS in the Americas
Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of premature morbidity and mortality globally, with hypertension as their main modifiable risk factor. In Latin America and the Caribbean, hypertension affects more than 30% of adults, yet control rates remain alarmingly low. The HEARTS in the Americas Initiative, led by the Pan American Health Organization, promotes a model of team-based care to enhance risk management for hypertension and cardiov…
Surveying Community Environmental Justice
In an urban region of eastern Tijuana, there are long-standing water runoff sites which community members have identified as having an impact on residents, including contributing to flooding. This community-based participatory research (CBPR) project in collaboration with the Colectivo Salud y Justicia Ambiental (CSJA) used the geospatial surveying tool Survey 123 to conduct community-based monitoring of five runoff sites. Results from 170 comple…
Connecting schools and communities
Outdoor environmental education aims to immerse students in environmental spaces and create opportunities for classroom learning to be applied in the field. However, students from Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and low-income communities often have less access to these educational opportunities. This study examined the environmental education programs of nine community organizations in the San Francisco (SF) Bay Area. Through twen…
Implementación de la Iniciativa HEARTS en Argentina
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the Region of the Americas, and hypertension is one of the main risk factors. In 2018, Argentina began implementing the HEARTS Initiative in five primary health care centers, through the National Plan for the Prevention and Control of Arterial Hypertension. This study presents the impact its implementation has had on the indicators of effective coverage, treatment, combin…
The confidence to speak
This case study explores the participant perspectives of a Community Leadership Program (CLP) in an underserved community. The CLP aimed to improve community conditions by increasing participants’ knowledge, skills, and confidence to participate in local governance forums. Our three research foci were to understand (1) how successful the program was in building individual leadership skills, (2) how skills were applied through participation in lea…
Waist circumference percentiles for Hispanic‐American children and comparison with other international references
INTRODUCTION: Waist circumference (WC) constitutes an indirect measurement of central obesity in children and adolescents. OBJECTIVE: To provide percentiles of WC for Hispanic-American children and adolescents, and compare them with other international references. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The sample comprised 13 289 healthy children between 6 and 18 years coming from public schools of middle and low socioeconomic levels in different parts of Argent…
Community Participation and Recognition Justice in Border Environmental Governance
In the U.S.-México border region, environmental governance is fractured by the multiplicity of jurisdictions that overlap and create accountability gaps for local communities. In order to understand the role that community members play in influencing this governance process, this research is focused on the types of participants in, and barriers to community participation in the Border 2020 program, an institution of environmental governance in th…
Borderland environmental justice and governance apertures
The theorization of borderland environmental justice is expanded by examining the specificities of fragmented governance and accountability and how this affects environmental injustice in the region. I argue that borderland environmental justice is distinct from U.S.-based environmental justice because of the congruence of three elements: socio-economic and ecological integration, the core-periphery relationship between the U.S. and Mexico, and t…
La composition corporelle des adolescentes. La mode et quelques répercussions cliniques
The biological and psychological changes which occur during growth stages render children fragile, which can favour risk factors during the period of maturation as well as later on in adult life. The influence of advertising and social pressure is particularly strong in the case of girls, and a new prototype of body proportion has emerged in which extreme thinness is no longer the exception as it has been in previous periods. In order to detect t…
Vers un ailleurs prometteur
Les migrations sont-elles une réponse universelle à une situation de crise ? Poser cette question ouvre sans doute le plus vaste débat sur l’histoire du mouvement des hommes. Cet ouvrage illustre bien la diversité et la multiplicité de cette incroyable richesse qu'est le mouvement des hommes et des peuples sur notre planète. Tout changement est un déséquilibre et, réciproquement, ce sont les déséquilibres qui permettent le changement. Est-il poss…

Report on the natural interruption of pregnancy related to menarche in the population of Madrid
All cases of spontaneous abortion which were registered between June 1982 and June 1984 in the Ciudad Sanitaria de la Paz have been studied in Madrid (n = 1,259). Together with the women who had miscarriages, a control sample of women (n = 1,016) of similar socioeconomic status and ages was analyzed. The main aim of this study is the analysis of the link between the age of menarche and the incidence of miscarriage, as well as morphological charac…
