Exploring differences in perceived barriers and facilitators to Covid-19 vaccine uptake and testing intention by vaccination status and testing hesitancy among rural Latino communities in Southwest Fl…
Promoting family and community safety may be effective facilitators influencing vaccine and testing intention in rural Latino communities. Enhanced education by trusted information sources, such as doctors and faith leaders may alleviate associated concerns. Our findings may inform actions for future pandemics. Further studies should determine the generalizability of our findings across other rural migrant communities and other vaccines
Post-traumatic stress in older, community-dwelling adults with hypertension during the Covid-19 pandemic
COVID-19 pandemic-related traumatic stress (PRTS) symptoms are reported in various populations, but risk factors in older adults with chronic medical conditions, remain understudied. We therefore examined correlates and pre-pandemic predictors of PRTS in older adults with hypertension during COVID-19. Participants in California, aged 61-92 years ( n = 95), participated in a pre-pandemic healthy aging trial and later completed a COVID-19 assessmen…
Systemic Inflammation and Cognitive Decrements in Patients With Stage B Heart Failure
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the role of systemic inflammation in reduced cognitive functioning in patients with early-stage heart failure (HF) while determining associations with other cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS: Patients with stage B HF (n = 270; mean [standard deviation] age = 66.1 [10.1] years) were examined cross-sectionally for relationships among cardiovascular disease (CVD) and psychological risk factors, C-reactiv…
Exploration of Multilevel Barriers and Strategies That Affected Early Covid-19 Vaccination and Testing in Rural Latino Communities in Southwest Florida
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted multiple racial and ethnic minority groups, including Latinos residing in rural communities. Low rates of vaccination and testing combined with social determinants of health have contributed significantly to this disparate impact. Given the needs and constraints unique to rural Latino migrant and immigrant communities, this qualitative study examined multilevel barriers and strategies that aff…
Food Insecurity and the Hispanic Population during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Historically, food insecurity has been a problem for the Hispanic/Latino population in the United States. Variations in food insecurity exist among this population by origin, immigration status, household composition, and region. The coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated existing vulnerabilities this population faces with food insecurity including limited economic resources, reliance on programs unprepared for atypical circumstances, closure of av…

Pilot Randomized Study of a Gratitude Journaling Intervention on Heart Rate Variability and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Patients With Stage B Heart Failure
OBJECTIVE: Stage B, asymptomatic heart failure (HF) presents a therapeutic window for attenuating disease progression and development of HF symptoms, and improving quality of life. Gratitude, the practice of appreciating positive life features, is highly related to quality of life, leading to development of promising clinical interventions. However, few gratitude studies have investigated objective measures of physical health; most relied on self…
An Exercise-Based Program for Veterans with Substance Use Disorders
Substance use disorders (SUDs) are prevalent among veteran populations. Adjunctive treatments for SUDs are warranted for many reasons, including high relapse rates. Physical exercise has broad health benefits as well as mood-enhancing, anxiolytic, and withdrawal-reducing effects, but veterans with SUDs report low rates of regular exercise. Evaluating exercise-based interventions that incorporate evidence-based behavior change strategies tailored …
Leukocyte ß-Adrenergic Receptor Sensitivity and Depression Severity in Patients With Heart Failure
OBJECTIVES: Clinical outcomes are worse for patients with heart failure (HF) and elevated depression symptoms. Depression-related sympathoimmune dysregulation may be one mechanism leading to poorer HF prognosis. Sympathetically mediated adrenergic activity is known to regulate immune activity via β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs). However, studies show conflicting relationships between leukocyte β-AR sensitivity and depression symptoms. The aim of t…
Independent Association Between Lower Level of Social Support and Higher Coagulation Activity Before and After Acute Psychosocial Stress
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between social support and coagulation parameter reactivity to mental stress in men and to determine if norepinephrine is involved. Lower social support is associated with higher basal coagulation activity and greater norepinephrine stress reactivity, which in turn, is linked with hypercoagulability. However, it is not known if low social support interacts with stress to further increase coagulation reac…
Coagulation Activity Before and After Acute Psychosocial Stress Increases With Age
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether stress further increases hypercoagulation in older individuals. We investigated whether acute stress-induced changes in coagulation parameters differ with age. It is known that hypercoagulation occurs in response to acute stress and that a shift in hemostasis toward a hypercoagulability state occurs with age. However, it is not yet known whether acute stress further increases hypercoagulation in older individuals, and…
Cardiac-related Hospitalization and/or Death Associated With Immune Dysregulation and Symptoms of Depression in Heart Failure Patients
OBJECTIVE: Congestive heart failure (CHF) patients with depressive symptoms have a greater risk of morbidity and mortality. Immune activity such as inflammation is increasingly implicated as underlying this relationship. However, it is unknown whether there is a broader spectrum of immune dysregulation beyond inflammatory activity. This study examined in CHF patients the relationship of depressive symptoms with cellular immune activity measured b…
Differential Immune Cell Chemotaxis Responses to Acute Psychological Stress in Alzheimer Caregivers Compared to Non-caregiver Controls
OBJECTIVE: Caregiving for a spouse with Alzheimer's disease is associated with alterations in various immune cell responses. Chemotaxis of immune cells to chemokines is an important factor involved in lymphocyte migration, which plays an essential role in inflammatory responses to infection and may also be involved in atherogenesis. However, the effects of chronic stress on chemotaxis have not been investigated. The objective of this study was to…
Acute Psychological Stress
OBJECTIVE: Activation of a psychological stress response increases autonomic activity and enhances immune function by inducing a significant increase in numbers of leukocytes at sites of inflammation. Chemotaxis and cellular adhesion are thought to mediate leukocyte trafficking. In this study, we examine the effects of an acute psychological stress on chemotactic responses of PBMCs and on CAM expression in relation to measures of sympathetic acti…
Disordered Sleep, Nocturnal Cytokines, and Immunity in Alcoholics
OBJECTIVE: Alcoholics who are at risk for infectious disease show profound disturbances of sleep along with decrements of cellular immunity. This study examined the relationships between sleep, nocturnal expression of immunoregulatory cytokines, and natural killer (NK) cell activity in alcoholic patients as compared with control subjects. METHODS: Alcoholic patients (N = 24) and comparison control subjects (N = 23) underwent all-night polysomnogr…
Responses to Laboratory Psychosocial Stress in Postpartum Women
OBJECTIVE: Lactation has been associated with attenuated hormonal responses to exercise stress in humans. This study was designed to determine the effect of lactation on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, autonomic nervous system, and anxiety responses to psychological stress. METHOD: The Trier Social Stress Test was administered to 24 lactating women, 13 postpartum nonlactating women, and 14 healthy control women in the early follicular phase …
