Reach and representativeness within a rural randomized controlled trial designed to improve community health through civic engagement for built environment change in Texas and New York
Background: Community-based trials are important for developing effective, real-world health improvement approaches that address built environment changes, but they often lack rural representation. This paper reports on community (n = 12) and study participant (n = 2420) characteristics of the Change Club (CC) project. Study participant characteristics are compared to publicly available data to determine reach and representativeness, and therefor…
Comparisons of social and demographic determinants of tobacco use in the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Data indicate that tobacco use in the DRC, as is common in the developing world, is heavily concentrated in the working poor with lower educational status. Higher educational status is consistently predictive of avoiding tobacco use. Additionally, examining only national-level data to ascertain tobacco use levels and patterns may lead to mistaken conclusions that can lead to inefficient and ineffective allocation of resources aimed at controlling…

A Comparative Analysis of Indigenous Research Guidelines to Inform Genomic Research in Indigenous Communities
BACKGROUND: Genetic research has potential benefits for improving health, such as identifying molecular characteristics of a disease, understanding disease prevalence and treatment, and developing treatments tailored to patients based on individual genetic characteristics of their disease. Indigenous people are often targeted for genetic research because genes are easier to study in communities that practice endogamy. Therefore, populations perce…
The Relationship between Obesity and the Prevalence of Fast Food Restaurants: State-Level Analysis
PURPOSE: Obesity accounts for approximately 300,000 deaths a year in the United States, and prevalence rates have been increasing over the past decade. The nutrition environment may be contributing to this epidemic. This study examined the relationship between fast food restaurants and obesity on a state-wide basis. DESIGN: A one-time cross-sectional analysis of secondary data was used for this study. SETTING: The setting for this study was the U…
