Long‐Term Benefits Following Hepatitis C Cure Through Facilitated Telemedicine; Experiences of People With Opioid use Disorder Five Years After Achieving a Sustained Virological Response
BACKGROUND: Facilitated telemedicine is highly effective for hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment among people with opioid use disorder (OUD). However, the long-term impact of sustained virological response (SVR) through this model of treatment remains unexplored. We examined how people with OUD perceive SVR achieved through facilitated telemedicine. METHODS: We conducted two focus group discussions (FGDs) with nine participants at least 5 years pos…
Behavioral Weight Management Interventions for Hispanic Men in the United States: A Systematic Review
Hispanic men have the highest prevalence of obesity relative to other racial and ethnic subgroups; however, this population is consistently underrepresented in weight management interventions. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of behavioral weight management interventions adapted for Hispanic men and describe their tailoring strategies and efficacy. Six online databases were selected for their abundant collection of high-quality,…
I didn’t expect to be so close to being diabetic: Beliefs of prediabetes and diabetes prevention among Hispanic men at a federally qualified health center
Influences potentially unique to Hispanic men in this setting included references to unhealthy foods environments, overwhelming working conditions, carbohydrate-rich cultural staples, and the threat of diabetes to self-perceptions of being head-of-family. These findings provide insight into Hispanic men's perceived barriers to engaging in preventative behaviors and motivators that can potentially facilitate their engagement in diabetes prevention
Associations of peer generational status on adolescent weight across Hispanic immigrant generations: A social network analysis
The generational status of peers in Hispanic adolescents' social networks, particularly the proportion that are second-generation Hispanic, moderates the positive association between immigrant generation and BMI. Moreover, this moderation effect is different across immigrant generations so that the proportion of second-generation adolescents within a social network is associated with higher BMI in first-generation Hispanic adolescents, but with l…
Adolescents’ proxy reports on obesity-related parenting practices: Factorial validity and reliability across four behavioral domains
We found that adolescent- and parent-reported obesity-related parenting were significantly associated, while adolescent-reported parenting were more explanatory of fruit and vegetable intake and physical activity than parent-reported parenting. These findings suggest that adolescent proxy reports may be a valid source of information on obesity-related parenting
Challenges with social distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic among Hispanics in New York City: A qualitative study
Despite understanding the risks for contracting COVID-19 and taking appropriate precautions, Hispanics faced numerous challenges to social distancing and quarantining, such as living in crowded, multi-generational households, working as essential workers, and providing unpaid care to family members. Such challenges took a toll on their physical, emotional, and financial well-being. Our findings suggest that a tailored approach to public health me…
A metonym for the marginalized
When it comes to seeing representations of historically marginalized groups in US cinema, I tend to be a “glass half-full” sort of person. It is hard to contain my joy at seeing even a modicum of p

Fire and Snow
C]lassics are the books that come down to us bearing the traces of readings previous to ours, and bringing in their wake the traces they themselves have left on culture or cultures they passed through (or, more simply, on language and customs).-Italo Calvino, "Why Read the Classics?"Faced with information overload, we have no alternative but pattern-recognition

Latino Sci-Fi: Cognition and Narrative Design in Alex Rivera’s Sleep Dealer
What is science fiction (sci-fi), and why are there so few such works created by Latinos in the United States? While the first part of my question has already been explored in excellent detail by pioneering scholars such as Darko Suvin, Fredric Jameson, and Brooks Landon, the second part both taunts and tantalizes. The most direct answer suggests the mystery surrounding the relative absence of sci-fi in Latino/a fiction. Eric Garcia's The Reposse…
