Social determinants of health in the Mixtec and Zapotec community in Ventura County, California

Adoption of an evidence-based colorectal cancer screening promotion program by community organizations serving Filipino Americans
Open AccessÁgústa Edwald Maxwell, Annette E Maxwell et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2014
The high rate of adoption among organizations that were referred by community partners or had partnered with us in the past underscores the importance of community resources, community-academic relationships, and partnership in the dissemination process. However, the moderate rate of adoption among new organizations and the demands of completing documentation and assessments in our trial to advance dissemination research raise questions regarding…
Neighborhood socio-economic disadvantage and race/ethnicity as predictors of breast cancer stage at diagnosis
Open AccessYvonne N Flores, Pamela L Davidson et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013
Hispanic women showed the least improvement in breast cancer stage at diagnosis from 1990 to 2000. Breast cancer screening and education programs that target under-served communities, such as the rapidly growing Hispanic population, are needed in California

Results of a Community-Based Randomized Trial to Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening Among Filipino Americans
Ágústa Edwald Maxwell, Annette E Maxwell et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2010Citada por: 2Referencias: 17
Objectives. We conducted 1 of the first community-based trials to develop a multicomponent intervention that would increase colorectal cancer screening among an Asian American population. Methods. Filipino Americans (n = 548) nonadherent to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening guidelines were randomized into an intervention group that received an education session on CRC screening and free fecal occult blood test (FOBT) kits; a second intervention g…
Why are Korean American Physicians Reluctant to Recommend Colorectal Cancer Screening to Korean American Patients? Exploratory Interview Findings

Tobacco use among South Asians
Beth A Glenn, Zul Surani et al.ARTICLEEthnicity and Health2008Citada por: 1
These findings emphasize the need to disaggregate data for South Asians and suggest that tobacco control interventions should target specific segments of the population (men, Bangladeshis, Pakistanis). Interventions to decrease use of smokeless tobacco products are especially warranted for South Asians

Ninez A Ponce, Soonim Huh et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2005Referencias: 25
BACKGROUND: Few studies have explored health care market structure and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test use, and little is known whether market factors contribute to racial/ethnic screening disparities. OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether HMO market level factors, controlling for individual covariates, differentially impact Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) subjects' access to CRC screening compared with white subjects. RESEARCH DES…
