Increasing food insecurity severity is associated with lower diet quality
Objective: Food insecurity may reduce diet quality, but the relationship between food insecurity severity and diet quality is under-researched. This study aimed to examine the relationship between diet quality and severity of household food insecurity. Design: A cross-sectional, online survey used the United States Department of Agriculture Household Food Security Six-item Short Form to classify respondents as food secure or marginally, moderatel…
Characterizing the Health of Older Rural Australians Attending Rural Events
This paper describes the health of older Australians (>65 years) attending rural events to inform health promotion interventions for rural populations. This cross-sectional study collected survey data and objective health measures between 2017 and 2020 at two events held in rural New South Wales, Australia. Participants included in the analysis were adults > 65 years of age. Data included demographic and health information, anthropometric measure…
Effectiveness of interventions to optimise dietary intakes in the first 1000 d of life in Indigenous children
Objective: Indigenous infants are disproportionately more likely to have negative outcomes compared to non-Indigenous infants with suboptimal nutrition in the first 1000 d playing a major role. This review aimed to systematically assess the effectiveness of interventions designed to optimise dietary intake and/or nutrition-related behaviours among Indigenous infants globally and to identify whether Indigenous populations were involved in the co-d…
Be Healthe for Your Heart
This pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed to determine the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of a web-based cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention intervention for women following preeclampsia. Australian women with a recent history (≤4 years post diagnosis) of preeclampsia were randomized into two study arms: (1) Be Health e for your Heart, a web-based behavioral intervention or; (2) Control, access to the National Heart Foundatio…

Trends in Food and Beverage Portion Sizes in Australian Children; a Time-Series Analysis Comparing 2007 and 2011–2012 National Data
In 2011-2012 approximately 26% of Australian children aged between 5-17 years were reported to be overweight or obese. Furthermore, the increase in prevalence of overweight and obesity among US children parallels reported increases in energy intake and portion sizes of common foods, leading to the recognition that availability of larger portion sizes contributes to the rise in overweight and obesity prevalence. Thus, the aim of this time-series a…
Confronting the paradigm of discipline specific expert knowledge
The World Health Organisation (WHO) global strategy on-people centred and integrated health services calls for a radical shift in the way health services are funded, managed and delivered. The juxtaposition of longevity, burden of chronic disease and availability of complex medical interventions is stretching the health system’s ability to deliver, and government’s capacity to financially sustain.Online availability of healthcare information has …
