Prevalence of Chronic Disease and Cost Effectiveness of a Free Clinic
Free clinics are a widespread, yet limited research has examined the health status of people served and the cost effectiveness of free clinics. The purpose of this study was to describe the sociodemographic characteristics and prevalence of chronic conditions in patients seen at a free clinic and estimate the clinic's cost-effectiveness. The study was a retrospective chart review of 350 randomly selected paper medical charts (2009-2020) and 1,676…
The moderating effects of child appetitive traits on the association between parental controlling feeding practices and child weight status at 18 and 24 months
Increasing Access to Medical Care for Hispanic Women Without Insurance
Maternal depressive symptom trajectories and associations with child feeding
A Moderate-Severe and Stable depressive symptom trajectory was associated with more responsive feeding practices and a Mild-Moderate and Stable trajectory was associated with higher restrictive feeding. Preliminary evidence suggests that depressive symptoms impact mothers' ability to match their use of restriction to the temperamental needs of their child
Mi Gente, Nuestra Salud
By de-centering specific interventions and conceptualizing them as single events in a complex web, our system-oriented community ownership model brings the focus back to the system itself, and to system-based processes and solutions, while still guided by CBPR principles
Maternal responsiveness and toddler body mass index z-score
Associations between mothers' use of food to soothe, feeding mode, and infant weight during early infancy
Weight status and rate of weight gain in the first six months postpartum are strong predictors of later obesity; thus, infant feeding practices are an important target for obesity prevention efforts. The use of food to soothe (FTS) is associated with less-favorable eating habits and weight outcomes for older infants and children. However, few studies have examined correlates of use of FTS during early infancy. The primary aim of this cross-sectio…
Associations between parenting stress, parent feeding practices, and perceptions of child eating behaviors during the Covid-19 pandemic
The aim of this study was to explore associations between parenting stress, feeding practices, and perceptions of children's eating behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Parents (n = 284) of children ages 4-6 years completed a cross-sectional online survey during the onset of pandemic-related stay-at-home mandates in the U.S. Parents reported current levels of parenting stress, feeding practices, and child eating behaviors. Parents also reporte…

WLM have higher ED scores than do NW, but this is mostly due to exercising for weight control
