Homemade infant formula recipes may contain harmful ingredients
Objective: When breast-feeding is not possible, commercially made human milk substitute is recommended. Some consumers would prefer to make their own homemade infant formula (HIF) and may seek information on this practice from internet sources. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the content of blogs posting HIF recipes. Design: Blog postings were identified through a comprehensive search conducted using the Google search engine a…
Application of Ecological Models to Risks Related to Being Overweight among Nurses
This paper provides a discussion of environmental strategies to improve health behaviors of nurses. Behavioral choices, partly due to social and environmental factors, influence risk of chronic disease. Strategies that modify environments are critical components of public health interventions, particularly those concerned with improving diet and physical activity. Nurses' health behaviors may be especially important, due to their influence as mod…
Non-Equipment Exercise-Related Injuries Among U.S. Women 65 and Older
The objective of this study was to estimate the relative frequency, types of injury, types of exercise, and mechanism of non-equipment exercise-related injury among women 65 and older. Methods included a descriptive analysis of emergency department (ED) visits to hospitals participating in the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS). Researchers identified 851 exercise-related injuries to women 65 and older. Estimates are that 3772…
Risk Factors for Osteoporosis Among Middle-Aged Women
Osteoporosis prevention programs need to emphasize the importance of hormonal status and body composition in addition to obtaining adequate calcium intake
Changes in Behavior and Behavioral Intentions among Middle-Age Women
The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in behaviors and behavioral intentions that occurred among 342 middle-age women ( M age 49.5 yr.) after participating in an Osteoporosis Prevention Program. The valid and reliable Osteoporosis Preventing Behaviors Survey (developed by Doheny and Sedlak) and a survey developed for this work were measures. Significant changes in behaviors were reported, especially increases in weight-bearing physica…

Influence of Yard Work and Weight Training on Bone Mineral Density Among Older U. S. Women
The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of type of physical activity on bone mineral density among older U.S. women. Findings from the present study indicate that jogging, swimming and calisthenics were weak predictors for high bone density values. Bicycling, aerobics, walking and dancing were moderate predictors for positive bone density. Yard work and weight training were strong and independent predictors for positive bone dens…
A Prediction Model for Polypharmacy
INTRODUCTION: This study attempts to account for variation in the number of prescription medications concurrently consumed in geriatric populations. METHODS: Data were selected from The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, III, 1988-1994 (NHANES III), Adult Household Questionnaire, a complex, multistage, clustered sampling of civilian, non-institutionalized populations, which included a volunteer sample of 5,249 individuals aged 65 a…
Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Weight-Control Behaviors Among US Youth
Although some weight-control behaviors may be hazardous, adolescents who were practicing weight-control behaviors engaged in the positive dietary behavior of consuming more servings of fruits and vegetables
Counseling Female Athletes
Research indicates that female athletes from all sports are at risk for developing disordered eating. amenorrhea, and resulting complications. These disorders, termed the female athlete triad by the American College of Sports Medicine, may lead to significant morbidity and mortality as well as medical and psychological problems. When female athletes feel pressured to fit a specific physical image, they may develop distorted body images and show d…
Predictors for Osteoporosis Diagnosis Among Postmenopausal Women
Osteoporosis is a serious health problem in the U.S. today resulting in premature mortality, deformity, pain, loss of function, and disability. Diagnosis of osteoporosis is key to obtaining treatment. The purpose of this study was to examine risk factors that are correlated with osteoporosis diagnosis among a national sample of postmenopausal women. Factors associated with osteoporosis diagnosis included age, race, and family history. Health care…
Osteoporotic Fracture among Older U.S. Women
The purpose of this study was to develop a predictive model for osteoporotic fracture among a national sample of 2,325 women ages 50 years and older. Predictors for examination included age, race, heredity, body mass index (BMI), physical activity, smoking status, alcohol use, and dairy product use. Analyses were conducted using Standard Analysis System (SAS) procedures. Strong risk factors predicting osteoporotic fracture included age, race, low…
The Compensatory Model in Weight Control
Acknowledging Baker's 1996 critique of our recent work in this Journal, comments are provided
Association of Depressive Symptoms and School Adolescents' Smoking
This study examined the association of depressive symptoms of adolescents and their smoking behavior. A national cohort sample of school adolescents (N = 5,855) who participated in the 1989 and 1993 Teenage Attitudes and Practices Survey was obtained. The information from this survey included measures of smoking behavior and a series of factors related to depressive symptoms during a 3-yr. span. A cross-lagged analysis with Kendall tau b correlat…
