Correlates of Mammogram Screening Among Brazilian Immigrant Women in the United States
A closer examination of the “rural mortality penalty”
BACKGROUND: Racial health disparities are well documented and pervasive across the United States. Evidence suggests there is a "rural mortality penalty" whereby rural residents experience poorer health outcomes than their urban counterparts. However, whether this penalty is uniform across demographic groups and U.S. regions is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To assess how rural-urban differences in mortality differ by race (Black vs. White), U.S. region, pov…
Nurturing Healthy Smiles
Background/Objectives: Oral health (OH) in early childhood is a key determinant of long-term well-being, shaped by parenting-related dietary and hygiene habits. While these influences are well-documented, they remain underexplored among Brazilian immigrant families in the United States (U.S.). Therefore, this study was designed to examine how Brazilian immigrant parents' perceptions and practices regarding diet and oral hygiene affect their presc…
Varying Forms of Childhood Sexual Abuse and Late-Life Depression Among Older Adults Living with HIV
Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) has been linked to depression in adulthood. However, studies examining the potential link between CSA and depression in older adulthood are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the association between CSA and late-life depression among older adults living with HIV (OALH) using two measures of depression. Data were obtained from OALH attending an immunology clinic in South Carolina (n = 91). Multiva…
Place-based, intersectional variation in caregiving patterns and health outcomes among informal caregivers in the United States
Introduction Informal caregiving is a critical component of the healthcare system despite numerous impacts on informal caregivers’ health and well-being. Racial and gender disparities in caregiving duties and health outcomes are well documented. Place-based factors, such as neighborhood conditions and rural–urban status, are increasingly being recognized as promoting and moderating health disparities. However, the potential for place-based factor…
Exploring Brazilian Immigrant Mothers’ Beliefs and Practices Regarding Their Preschool Children’s Oral Health
Parents' beliefs and practices significantly shape young children's oral health (OH), particularly during preschool years when these habits are being established. Immigrant parents often face challenges in promoting OH due to cultural, financial, and logistical barriers. This qualitative study explored OH beliefs, practices, and barriers among Brazilian immigrant mothers in the United States (U.S.). Semi-structured interviews, guided by the Healt…

Black/White Disparities in Obesity Widen with Increasing Rurality
These findings underscore the need for policies and programs aimed to reduce racial disparities in obesity and related conditions to consider the geographic context in which these outcomes occur
Rural‐urban differences in informal caregiving and health‐related quality of life
OBJECTIVES: Rural-urban health disparities are pervasive among older adults. Rural US locations have a disproportionately high population of older adults, have reduced access to services, and are therefore more reliant on family and friends for care. However, little is known about rural-urban disparities among the 40+ million informal caregivers nationwide. There is a critical need to understand how rural-urban disparities impact caregiving exper…
Moderation of the Association between Primary Language and Health by Race and Gender
In the United States (US), limited English proficiency is associated with a higher risk of obesity and diabetes. “Intersectionality”, or the interconnected nature of social categorizations, such as race/ethnicity and gender, creates interdependent systems of disadvantage, which impact health and create complex health inequities. How these patterns are associated with language-based health inequities is not well understood. The study objective was…
Self-reported changes in physical activity, sedentary behavior, and screen time among informal caregivers during the Covid-19 pandemic
The majority of respondents reported that their MPA, VPA PA, sedentary behavior, and screen time had changed during the pandemic. Living with the care recipient was associated with both positive and negative changes in behavior. Future research can explore factors associated with these reported changes in behavior

Relationship between Physical Activity, Screen Time, and Sleep Quantity and Quality in US Adolescents Aged 16–19
Despite the health benefits associated with physical activity (PA), screen time reduction, and sleep quantity and quality, the relationships between PA, screen time, and sleep quantity and quality remain unclear in adolescents. The present study is a cross-sectional analysis of data from adolescents aged 16-19 years who participated in the 2005-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey ( n = 542). Multivariable logistic regression mod…
Racial/Ethnic Disparities in US Adolescents’ Dietary Quality and Its Modification by Weight-Related Factors and Physical Activity
There are well-known disparities in the prevalence of obesity across racial-ethnic groups, although the behavioral and psychological factors driving these disparities are less well understood. Therefore, the objectives of this study were: (1) to examine differences in dietary quality by race/ethnicity and weight-related variables [body mass index (BMI), weight loss attempt, and weight dissatisfaction] and physical activity (PA) using the Health E…
