Applying the RE-AIM framework to evaluate a diabetes prevention intervention delivered through a food bank
BACKGROUND: Food insecurity correlates with poorer general health and health outcomes, increased risk for chronic diseases, including diabetes, and increased healthcare expenditures. OBJECTIVE: To describe the application of the RE-AIM framework to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of an intervention aimed at improving diet, physical activity, and food security of food bank clients who were at risk for prediabetes. METHODS: Food bank cli…
Perceptions About Housing and Neighborhood Characteristics Among Aging Adult Black Americans in Two Predominantly Black, Low-Income Neighborhoods in Pittsburgh
Examining the Cross-sectional Association Between Neighborhood Conditions, Discrimination, and Telomere Length in a Predominantly African American Sample
Design of the Think PHRESH longitudinal cohort study
Understanding how structural racism has influenced the lived experience of Black Americans, including dynamic changes in neighborhood conditions over time, is critical to inform multi-level intervention and policy efforts to reduce pervasive racial and socioeconomic disparities in ADRD
Social Determinants of Health and Diabetes
Decades of research have demonstrated that diabetes affects racial and ethnic minority and low-income adult populations in the U.S. disproportionately, with relatively intractable patterns seen in these populations’ higher risk of diabetes and rates of diabetes complications and mortality (1). With a health care shift toward greater emphasis on population health outcomes and value-based care, social determinants of health (SDOH) have risen to the…
Do investments in low-income neighborhoods produce objective change in health-related neighborhood conditions

Changes Over Time in Disparities in Health Behaviors and Outcomes by Race in Allegheny County
Experiences of Community Doulas Working with Low-Income, African American Mothers
Purpose: The aim of this study was to learn from doulas the components of their services that might best serve low-income, African American (AA) women and to show the significance of doulas in helping these women have healthy, positive, birth experiences. Methods: Ten doulas were recruited from a local community doula program and through word-of-mouth referrals from participants and completed in-depth interviews. Interviews were transcribed verba…
Evaluation of a Mobile Farmer's Market Aimed at Increasing Fruit and Vegetable Consumption in Food Deserts
Purpose: In November 2015, Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank implemented a pilot phase of the Green Grocer mobile market, a program aimed at improving access to locally sourced fresh foods in low-resource neighborhoods. We conducted an evaluation of this pilot phase. Methods: We conducted baseline surveys of residents in six neighborhoods that received Green Grocer in the pilot phase to understand the food environment, including perceptions …
Reducing Sugar-Sweetened Beverage Consumption by Providing Caloric Information
Objectives. We examined the ways in which adolescents altered the type and size of their purchases of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), together with whether the effects persisted after removing caloric information signs in stores. Methods. We used a case-crossover design with 6 stores located in low-income Black neighborhoods in Baltimore, Maryland, from 2012 to 2013. The intervention used 1 of 4 randomly posted signs with caloric information: a…
Reduction in Purchases of Sugar-Sweetened Beverages Among Low-Income Black Adolescents After Exposure to Caloric Information
Objectives. We examined the effect of an intervention to provide caloric information about sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) on the number of SSB purchases. Methods. We used a case-crossover design with 4 corner stores located in low-income, predominately Black neighborhoods in Baltimore, Maryland. The intervention randomly posted 1 of 3 signs with the following caloric information: (1) absolute caloric count, (2) percentage of total recommended d…
Bleich et al. Respond
We appreciate Sainani’s careful review of our research. She highlights two interesting issues regarding the interpretation of our results but does not uncover limitations in our article not already noted.1 Because we cannot be responsible for the media’s interpretation of our results, characterizing our article as “misleading” is unfair. She correctly notes, however, that our analysis did not account for the potential correlation of customers wit…
Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status, Depression, and Health Status in the Look Ahead (Action for Health in Diabetes) Study
In this selected group of weight loss trial participants, lower neighborhood SES was significantly associated with poorer health status. Whether these associations might influence response to the Look AHEAD weight loss intervention requires further investigation
Healthy food availability and the association with BMI in Baltimore, Maryland
Objective To study the association between the availability of healthy foods and BMI by neighbourhood race and socio-economic status (SES). Design Trained staff collected demographic information, height, weight and 24 h dietary recalls between 2004 and 2008. Healthy food availability was determined in thirty-four census tracts of varying racial and SES composition using the Nutrition Environment Measures Survey–Stores in 2007. Multilevel linear r…
Association of Walkability With Obesity in Baltimore City, Maryland
Objectives. To investigate the association between walkability and obesity, we studied adults residing in Baltimore City, Maryland, in neighborhoods of varying racial and socioeconomic composition. Methods. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 3493 participants from the study Healthy Aging in Neighborhoods of Diversity across the Life Span. We used the Pedestrian Environment Data Scan to measure neighborhood walkability in 34 neighborhoods of …
Neighborhood and weight-related health behaviors in the Look Ahead (Action for Health in Diabetes) Study
In this selected group of weight loss trial participants, restaurant availability was associated with some weight control practices, but neighborhood SES was not. Future studies should give attention to other populations and to evaluating various aspects of the physical and social environment with weight control practices
