  • Network threats to causal inference

    Open AccessC Mcmillan, Mark C Pachucki et al.ARTICLESocial Networks2026Referências: 11

    Researchers and practitioners rely on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to make causal inferences. However, most people who participate in RCTs are part of multiple, overlapping social networks that shape their behaviors and attitudes. As a result, variations in trial participants’ and non-participants’ network positions may impede the generalizability of a RCT’s conclusions. The current project evaluates the extent and impact of these variatio…

  • Disparities in cigarette smoking and the health of marginalized populations in the U.S

    Open AccessDiane E Levy, Stephanie S Lee et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Differences in cigarette smoking portend substantial ongoing and future disparities in life expectancy and time to reach 5% smoking prevalence. Reducing tobacco-related disparities in the U.S. will require an explicitly equity-focused vision, and the tobacco endgame will only be truly achieved when it includes all groups

  • US state implementation of policies restricting sales of flavoured E-cigarettes

    Gina Kruse, G B Chadwick et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2025

    Implementing policies restricting the sale of flavoured e-cigarettes is complex and variable from state to state. Future implementation efforts and policy evaluations should take this variability into account

  • Changes in tobacco use in rural South Africa during the 2020 tobacco sales ban

    Acadia Thielking, Yiqi Qian et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2025

    South Africa's 2020 tobacco sales ban, prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic, was associated with a 26% decrease in retrospectively reported tobacco use prevalence among a rural cohort. Tobacco use largely, but not completely, rebounded after the ban

  • The impact of tobacco smoking and smoking cessation on lung cancer and stroke incidence among people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy in South Africa

    Open AccessHelen D’Couto, Acadia M Thielking et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2024

    INTRODUCTION: With declining HIV-related mortality, over 20% of people with HIV (PWH) in South Africa are now over age 50 years, and tobacco-related non-communicable disease burden is increasing. We quantified the impact of smoking and smoking cessation on lung cancer and stroke incidence among PWH in South Africa. METHODS: Using a microsimulation model, we simulated 18 cohorts of initially virologically suppressed PWH over their lifetime, catego…

  • Assessment of the Massachusetts Flexible Services Program to Address Food and Housing Insecurity in a Medicaid Accountable Care Organization

    Open AccessJessica L McCurley, Vicki Fung et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2023

    This mixed-methods qualitative evaluation study found that to improve implementation, Medicaid and health system programs that address social needs may benefit from providing funding for administrative costs, developing bidirectional data-sharing platforms, and tailoring support to patient preferences

  • Costs to Implement a Pediatric Weight Management Program Across 3 Distinct Contexts

    Open AccessNatalie Smith, Natalie Riva Smith et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023Referências: 36

    BACKGROUND: The Connect for Health program is an evidence-based program that aligns with national recommendations for pediatric weight management and includes clinical decision support, educational handouts, and community resources. As implementation costs are a major driver of program adoption and maintenance decisions, we assessed the costs to implement the Connect for Health program across 3 health systems that primarily serve low-income commu…

  • Implementation Activities in Smoke-Free Public Housing

    Open AccessBoram Lee, Vicki Fung et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    A 2018 rule requiring federally-subsidized public housing authorities (PHAs) in the United States to adopt smoke-free policies (SFPs) has sparked interest in how housing agencies can best implement SFPs. However, to date, there is little quantitative data on the implementation of SFPs in public housing. Massachusetts PHAs were among the pioneers of SFPs in public housing, and many had instituted SFPs voluntarily prior to the federal rule. The aim…

    Open AccessAnne N Thorndike, Oliver-John M Bright et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2017

    Objective To conduct a pilot study to determine if improving the visibility and quality of fresh produce (choice architecture) in corner stores would increase fruit/vegetable purchases by families participating in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Design Six stores were randomly assigned to choice architecture intervention or control. Store-level WIC sales data were provided by the state. Primary o…

  • Delivering on the Promise of Smoke-Free Public Housing

    Diane E Levy, Douglas E Levy et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2017Citada por: 1Referências: 15

    On November 30, 2016, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published a final rule mandating that public housing authorities it supports prohibit all smoking on their residential premises, including within residents’ apartments. The primary rationale for this action was to protect nonsmoking residents from the harms of tobacco smoke exposure. Although the harms of secondhand smoke are clear and the potential for reducing nonsmo…

    Diane E Levy, Anne N Thorndike et al.ARTICLETobacco Control2007

    Use of NRT for reasons other than quitting smoking may be more common than was previously estimated. This population based survey finds no strong evidence that NRT use for purposes other than quitting smoking is either harmful or helpful

  • Military Wives

    Open AccessDiane E Levy, Gary L Faulkner et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1991

    The traditional pattern of the two-person career in the military has undergone a transition so that the contemporary role of the military wife has become similar to the civilian one. Data from 111 women married to servicemen stationed overseas at 13 bases in 4 countries suggest that, although the traditional dependent pattern is no longer universal, much role ambiguity and conflict remain as families adapt to the changing military environment

  • Self-Interest and Public Opinion Toward Smoking Policies

    Richard D Dixon, Roger C Lowery et al.ARTICLEPublic Opinion Quarterly1991Citada por: 10Referências: 1

    Numerous studies report that self-interest has a non significant influence upon various political and social attitudes. In contrast, a recent article by Green and Gerken (1989) reports a California study showing that cigarette smokers are significantly more opposed than nonsmokers to public smoking restrictions and tobacco sales tax increases. The present article replicates and extends this analysis with data from two different states—Illinois (i…
