Conditions such as coronary artery disease, osteoarthritis, and cancer and its treatments are considered high risk for the onset of frailty, which may worsen disease responsiveness, activities of daily living (ADL), and life prognosis. Therefore, prevention of frailty in non-older adults at high risk holds significant individual and societal value. However, the evidence remains insufficient regarding whether digital health service interventions s…
Rewriting the Erased History of Blacks in New Orleans Urban Gardening and Farming
Urban agriculture has gained prominence over the last decade in New Orleans, but the majority of the new gardens and farms that have emerged in the city since 2010 are neither culturally nor socially connected to the vibrant history of local food provisioning in the city’s Black communities. The history is tied closely to the region’s economic boom and bust, systemic oppression and segregation, and the cultural co-optation and devaluation of Blac…
Pandemic gardening
The disruption of social and food systems during the COVID-19 pandemic presented a unique set of opportunities and challenges for urban agriculture. Based on 79 in-depth interviews with the managers of community gardens, school gardens, and urban farms in the DC metropolitan area, this study explores the divergent responses of each type of urban agriculture to the social, economic, and personal disruptions that the pandemic wrought using the post…

Protein intake per day and at each daily meal and skeletal muscle mass declines among older community dwellers in Japan
Objective: To examine associations between protein intake per day and at different meals and skeletal muscle mass declines. Design: Two-year prospective cohort study among older community dwellers. Setting: National Institute for Longevity Sciences–Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS-LSA) in Japan. Participants: Older men ( n 292) and women ( n 363) aged 60–87 years who participated in the baseline (2006–2008) and follow-up studies (2008–2010) of N…
Green tea and coffee intake and risk of cognitive decline in older adults
Objective: To examine the association between green tea and coffee intake and cognitive decline in older adults. Design: A prospective cohort study. The average intake of green tea and coffee in the previous year was assessed through a dietitian interview using a dietary questionnaire. A Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was conducted up to six times biennially. Cognitive decline was screened using the MMSE; its incidence was defined as the fi…
Gardening in Times of Urban Transitions
Expanding scholarship on urban farming has not systematically examined what spurs the proliferation of cultivation practices, especially when the city is undergoing economic and social transitions. This study examines the development of the urban cultivation (UC) scene in New Orleans over the decade following Hurricane Katrina with a particular focus on entrepreneurial UC projects. By contextualizing in–depth interviews with the growers in the hi…

Fish and Meat Intake, Serum Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid Levels, and Mortality in Community-Dwelling Japanese Older Persons
The associations between meat/fish consumption, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)/eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) intakes, and blood DHA/EPA levels, and mortality in Japan were examined as part of the National Institute for Longevity Sciences-Longitudinal Study of Aging: 520 men and 534 women (60-79 years at baseline) were followed from 1997-2017. Nutritional intakes were assessed using a 3-day dietary record and fasting venous blood samples were collected.…
What inhibits working women with mental disorders from returning to their workplace?-A study of systematic re-employment support in a medical institution
BACKGROUND: It has been customary for working women in Japan to retire when they marry and to devote themselves to household work as well as having children. However, according to a report published by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications in 2013, the number of working women has increased consistently. As more women are advancing into society, they have more options with respect to lifestyle but may encounter new psychological burd…

Bringing food desert residents to an alternative food market
Political Gardening in a Post-disaster City
The study examines the emergence of urban gardening activities in New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Drawing on ethnographic and qualitative research conducted throughout the city between 2009 and 2012, it examines the ways in which various gardening projects in New Orleans exhibit different levels and scopes of political engagement, with a particular focus on how they manifest (sometimes in contradictory ways) in the projects’ mission…
Not Just the Price of Food
This case study of a community-supported agriculture (CSA) organization in New Orleans focuses on the lack of participation in the CSA market by the local residents despite its intentions, and how various constituencies diagnose the causes of the disengagement. Interview and ethnographic observation data indicate a general consensus on the economic constraints, but some non-resident supporters of the organization attributed the issue to lack of k…
Coming of Age in the Bubble
This article explores how suburban middle-class adolescents use a spatial metaphor, 'bubble,' as a symbolic boundary. The narratives about the bubble, collected through focus group discussions and ethnographic observations, show consensus among the teenagers about the socioeconomic and cultural superiority of the community, but they also reveal opposing views on its moral status. I also find that the teens use the same metaphor to draw moral dist…
Doing consumption and sitting cars
Compared to the studies of the relationship between young people and urban public space, the way middle-class youths counterparts navigate suburban landscapes is understudied. This paper focuses on different ways young people's bodies adapt, explore, negotiate, and resist the behavioral norms associated with various parts of commercial space in an American planned suburb. The analysis of the data collected through ethnographic fieldwork and focus…
Planning and Social Diversity
This is a comparative case study of residential segregation in three US 'new towns'. New towns are distinct from older suburban and other master-planned communities in four regards: larger size, mixed use of land, existence of a master developer and phased planning. The study investigates whether the three new towns, which are considered highly successful in the field of urban planning, have broken the older patterns of racial diversity and resid…
