Cognitive Impairment among People Who Use Heroin and Fentanyl
Background: Cognitive impairment is common in people living with HIV (PLWH). Opioid drugs exert direct and indirect effects on cognitive processes, which may contribute to cognitive dysfunction among PLWH. This study was designed to determine if opioid use is associated with cognitive impairment and whether the effect differs between PLWH and HIV-uninfected adults. Other neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as depression and apathy, were also examined…

Comparison of Two Indices of Diet Quality with Acculturation Factors and Demographics in Haitian Americans
This study examined associations of language preference and length of stay in the United States and diet among 132 Haitian Americans aged ≥35, born in Haiti. Two dietary indices, Healthy Eating Index (HEI) and Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), were used to assess dietary quality. Years in the United States (>15 years; B = 0.063, p = .012) and female gender (B = 5.63, p = .028) were positively associated with AHEI. Lower HEI scores were ass…

The Healthy Eating Index and the Alternate Healthy Eating Index as predictors of 10-year CHD risk in Cuban Americans with and without type 2 diabetes
Objective To examine the relationship between dietary patterns, as measured by the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) and the Alternate Healthy Eating Index (AHEI), and 10-year predicted CHD risk in Cuban Americans with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D). Design In a cross-sectional study participants were selected from two randomly generated mailing lists of individuals with and without T2D. HEI and AHEI scores were calculated from a self-reported FFQ. C…
Waist Circumference and BMI in Relation to Serum High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) in Cuban Americans With and Without Type 2 Diabetes
Relationship between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and adiposity by diabetes status and gender in Cuban-Americans with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) was studied. Adult subjects, 226 females, 129 males participated in a case control, single time point study. Subjects with T2D were older, had higher waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI). WC and BMI were associated with ln hs-CRP (P < 0.001). An interaction with diabe…
