Food Desert Status of Family Child Care Homes
Family child care homes (FCCHs) are a favored child care choice for parents of young children in the U.S. Most FCCH providers purchase and prepare foods for the children in their care. Although FCCH providers can receive monetary support from the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), a federal subsidy program, to purchase nutritious foods, little is known about FCCH providers' access to nutritious foods, especially among FCCH providers servi…
The Association Between Perceived Discrimination and BMI Trajectory
Evidence suggests that socioenvironmental stressors, such as discrimination, may serve as determinants of the ongoing obesity epidemic and persisting disparities in obesity prevalence. The objectives of these analyses were to examine whether perceived discrimination was associated with body mass index (BMI) trajectory and whether this relationship differed by race or sex. Data for these analyses came from the Healthy Aging in Neighborhoods of Div…
Cost-effectiveness of a Digital Health Intervention for Acute Myocardial Infarction Recovery
BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a common cause of hospital admissions, readmissions, and mortality worldwide. Digital health interventions (DHIs) that promote self-management, adherence to guideline-directed therapy, and cardiovascular risk reduction may improve health outcomes in this population. The "Corrie" DHI consists of a smartphone application, smartwatch, and wireless blood pressure monitor to support medication tracking,…

For older women, financial strain may be a better predictor of mortality than annual income, particularly in the case of older African American women
Provider and clinic cultural competence in a primary care setting

Epidemiologic data suggest it may prevent age-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) and bone loss. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality and disability in women.1Eaker E.D.
