Behavioral interventions related to plastic waste management in low-and middle-income countries
Addressing the mounting plastic waste problem requires system-level solutions, along with interventions that promote behavioral change. In low-resource countries, inadequate, if not absent, waste management systems lead to unsafe disposal practices, including open burning. While theory-informed approaches are essential for identifying enablers and barriers to target behavior change, their application is limited in these settings. Given the lack o…
Development of personal air pollution exposure report-back materials to Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (Hapin) trial participants in Guatemala and Rwanda
BACKGROUND: Report-back of individual exposure information to research participants is recognised in high-income countries as an important, yet often overlooked, component of environmental research, with many potential benefits to study communities. Nonetheless, the optimal means of communicating findings to participants in low-income countries with limited health and scientific literacy is unknown. METHODS: Between March 2021 and May 2022, we co…
Provision of a liquefied petroleum gas cookstove and fuel during pregnancy and infancy and linear growth trajectories between birth and 12 months
Exposure to particulate pollution from cooking with solid biomass fuels is associated with impaired child linear growth. We examined the effect of a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cookstove randomized controlled trial during pregnancy and infancy on linear growth trajectories among infants born to women enrolled during pregnancy. The Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN) randomized controlled trial enrolled 3195 pregnant women (9 to…
Reported Racial Discrimination in Healthcare Settings and Impacts on Health Outcomes in a Racially Diverse Sample in the United States
Exposure–response relationship of household air pollution on body mass index among women in rural areas of Guatemala, India, Peru and Rwanda
Evidence suggests a significant association between CO exposure and increased odds of being overweight/obese, whereas impacts of PM 2.5 and BC on BMI had null or inverse effects
Bots and fake participants
Recruitment for successful health sciences research requires balancing efficiency, cost, accessibility, and reliability of available recruitment methods. Our case-control study used online recruitment methods, which broadened our reach to potential participants across the United States. However, this approach also exposed us to challenges associated with bot interference and fraudulent participation. This paper focuses on maintaining data integri…
Beliefs About the Causes of Type 2 Diabetes Among First-Generation Asian Indians in the United States
INTRODUCTION: Asian Indians (AIs) have the highest prevalence rates (18.3%-29%) of diabetes in any minority group in the United States, yet little is known about their beliefs about what causes type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this study was to examine first generation AIs causal beliefs about type 2 diabetes. METHOD: Interpretative phenomenology was used to interview 12 first-generation AI participants with type 2 diabetes to elicit causal belief…
Facing the Realities of Pragmatic Design Choices in Environmental Health Studies
Objective: Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN) investigators tested a complex, non-pharmacological intervention in four low- and middle-income countries as a strategy to mitigate household air pollution and improve health outcomes across the lifespan. Intervention households received a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stove, continuous fuel delivery and regular behavioral reinforcements for 18 months, whereas controls were asked to …
Biomass Smoke Exposure and Atopy among Young Children in the Western Highlands of Guatemala
Women and children in rural regions of low-income countries are exposed to high levels of household air pollution (HAP) as they traditionally tend to household chores such as cooking with biomass fuels. Early life exposure to air pollution is associated with aeroallergen sensitization and developing allergic diseases at older ages. This prospective cohort study assigned HAP-reducing chimney stoves to 557 households in rural Guatemala at different…
Developing Visual Messages to Support Liquefied Petroleum Gas Use in Intervention Homes in the Household Air Pollution Intervention Network (Hapin) Trial in Rural Guatemala
BACKGROUND: Household air pollution adversely affects human health and the environment, yet more than 40% of the world still depends on solid cooking fuels. The House Air Pollution Intervention Network (HAPIN) randomized controlled trial is assessing the health effects of a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stove and 18-month supply of free fuel in 3,200 households in rural Guatemala, India, Peru, and Rwanda. AIMS: We conducted formative research in …
Fidelity and Adherence to a Liquefied Petroleum Gas Stove and Fuel Intervention during Gestation
The fidelity of the HAPIN intervention, as measured by stove installation, timely ongoing fuel deliveries, and behavioral reinforcement as needed, was high. Exclusive use of the intervention during pregnancy was also high
Effectiveness of Gas and Chimney Biomass Stoves for Reducing Household Air Pollution Pregnancy Exposure in Guatemala
Household air pollution (HAP) due to solid fuel use during pregnancy is associated with adverse birth outcomes. The real-life effectiveness of clean cooking interventions has been disappointing overall yet variable, but the sociodemographic determinants are not well described. We measured personal 24-h PM 2.5 (particulate matter n = 218) gravimetrically with Teflon filter, impactor, and personal pump setups. To estimate the effectiveness of ownin…
Adoption of Liquefied Petroleum Gas Stoves in Guatemala
Acculturation, Inflammation, and Self-rated Health in Mexican American Immigrants
Designing a behavioral intervention using the COM-B model and the theoretical domains framework to promote gas stove use in rural Guatemala
NCT02812914, registered 3 June 2016, retrospectively registered
Engagement with health care providers as a mediator between social capital and quality of life among a sample of people living with HIV in the United States
This study emphasizes importance of social connections and mediating role of HCP in improving QoL for PLWH. To develop social capital effectively, interventions should focus on strengthening PLWH's social connections and engagement to HCP
Factors associated with secondhand tobacco smoke in the home
While few women reported having ever used tobacco, one in seven women in this study reported that smoking/SHS occurred daily in their homes. Therefore SHS exposure is a potential health concern for women and children in this rural community. Findings from this study provide baseline data for monitoring tobacco control policies in Ethiopia, particularly in relation to the promotion of smoke-free homes, and could be used to inform prevention progra…
Premature or Just Small? Training Guatemalan Birth Attendants to Weigh and Assess Gestational Age of Newborns
We describe Guatemalan birth attendants' identification of vulnerable newborns, their evaluation of gestational age and anthropometry, and the validity of the Capurro and New Ballard newborn gestational age assessment methods. We interviewed 49 birth attendants and trained 10 of these women to assess 63 newborns. The Capurro and Ballard methods were correlated (Spearman rho = .75, p < .001) and showed agreement (Bland-Altman plot, difference and …
