Individuals who are from marginalized groups, including racialized populations and those with a low socio-economic status, are more physically inactive compared to those who identify as white or who have a higher income. The differences in physical activity level by socio-demographic characteristics reflect inequitable access to lifestyle resources. Exercise is Medicine On Campus (EIM-OC) is a unique international post-secondary initiative that aims to promote a culture of physical activity and chronic disease prevention and management on university/college campuses and within their local communities. EIM-OC programs currently exist on every continent, with the majority of chapters existing in North America. This provides EIM-OC a unique opportunity to address inequities in physical activity promotion. This commentary provides perspective on traditional EIM-OC program offerings, highlights learnings from the COVID-19 pandemic, and recommends strategies to increase the inclusivity of future physical activity programming.","PeriodicalId":302892,"journal":{"name":"Healthy Populations Journal","volume":"127 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123655664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Infographics and pictograms are visual science communication tools that have been shown to improve medication adherence. Objective: To synthesize and critically evaluate literature surrounding the use of infographics and pictograms in medication adherence. Methods: We conducted a literature search on PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and PsycInfo with the purpose of identifying literature published between the years 2000 and 2022. Primary research articles were included for quantitative analysis if they explored/reported the following topics and/or outcomes: (a) infographics and/or pictograms as the exposure of interest and (b) adherence, comprehension, or health outcomes as the outcome measures. Results: 30 studies were included in the results. Outcome measures assessed included (a) comprehension and understanding of factors surrounding medication adherence, (b) medication adherence, and (c) health outcomes. Our review of the studies showed that 87.5% of studies measuring outcome (a), 78.2% of those measuring outcome (b), and 100% of those measuring outcome (c) found improvements when using infographics or pictograms. Conclusion: Our review supports the use of infographics and pictograms as a means of improving medication adherence among a diverse set of demographics, illnesses, and treatments. Practice Implications: Infographics and pictograms are useful tools to improve medication adherence. When these tools are designed carefully, they increase the accessibility of medication information in a wide range of patient populations.","PeriodicalId":302892,"journal":{"name":"Healthy Populations Journal","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123645671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interventions that aim to improve hospital-to-home transitions do not generally focus on subacute care. Objective: To summarize the existing literature on subacute-to-home transitions for individuals receiving palliative care near the end of life, and to explore whether these interventions are targeted toward marginalized groups to improve their transition experience. Methods: We searched the MEDLINE, Embase, HealthSTAR, and Cochrane Library electronic databases using terms related to end of life, palliative care, and transitions from subacute facilities to home. We identified 896 records and included 29 articles, 11 of which were intervention articles. We searched the 11 intervention articles for equity stratifiers. Results: Of the 29 included articles, four addressed transitions for end-of-life populations, three discussed family caregiver perspectives, and 11 were intervention studies, including regular home visit follow-ups, individualized transition care plans, and an individualized intervention with an advanced practice nurse. Subacute-to-home interventions showed positive outcomes such as reduced risk of hospital readmissions, reduced length of stays, and improved functional status. However, study limitations included small sample sizes, inconsistent definitions of outcomes, and incompletion due to COVID-19. No studies focused on marginalized groups. Conclusion/Discussion: While there was some literature supporting targeted interventions for subacute-to-home transitions for those receiving palliative care or end-of-life care, the included interventions did not target marginalized groups. Further research in these areas is required.

This scoping review mapped the peer-reviewed literature to understand how MHL is defined, conceptualized, and measured in studies involving those becoming teachers (pre-service teachers) and working teachers (in-service teachers). The search was performed following the method for scoping reviews by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Searches were conducted in four scientific databases with no time limit, although all sources had to be written in English or French. Primary studies (N = 35) that measured MHL for pre- and in-service teachers provided a global snapshot of MHL conceptualization and measurement across five continents. Global conceptualizations of MHL were largely driven by the definition and measures developed by Jorm, though the definition by Kutcher et al. was used in one fourth of the papers. Few studies explicitly stated a theoretical framework. Most studies used closed-ended scales, or a combination of closed-ended scales and vignettes to measure MHL. From a closer examination of the results, Canada emerged as a major leader in teacher MHL. Future research in this area should aim to include vignette measures, especially for pre-service teachers, and explicit theoretical frameworks, including socio-ecological and social or structural determinants of health-related frameworks that take an intersectional approach to MHL.","PeriodicalId":302892,"journal":{"name":"Healthy Populations Journal","volume":"216 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134154840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many teething pain management strategies exist, yet there is a lack of research investigating which strategies are used by parents and whether they are evidence based. Using an established social media initiative, this study sought to better understand parents’ experiences managing teething pain and to determine which strategies are evidence based. Methods: Parents’ experiences with managing teething pain were gathered through a Facebook post in partnership with researchers and a Canadian digital publisher, YummyMummyClub.ca. This Facebook post, part of a larger social media initiative called #ItDoesntHaveToHurt, asked the following question: “What do you do when you think your baby has teething pain?” Comments underwent descriptive thematic analysis to identify common management approaches. An evidence review of literature was undertaken to determine if the most frequently used pain management strategies reported by parents are supported by research. Results: The post received 163 comments. Analysis identified that the most frequently mentioned strategies were frozen/chilled objects, over-the-counter oral analgesics, frozen fruits/vegetables, oral anesthetic gels, and teething necklaces. The evidence review findings suggest a lack of research in the area of teething pain management. Professional dental associations recommend rubbing the gums with a clean finger or using chilled teething toys and over-the-counter analgesics as effective management strategies. Evidence indicates that oral anesthetic gels and teething necklaces are unsafe. Conclusion: Parents use a variety of teething pain management strategies for their infants, many of which are unsafe and not supported by evidence. What information is used by parents and how they select teething pain management strategies is an area that requires further research.","PeriodicalId":302892,"journal":{"name":"Healthy Populations Journal","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129571541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although frailty has been thoroughly investigated in developed countries, it has been understudied in developing countries. Like other countries worldwide, Arabic-speaking countries (ASCs) are experiencing an increase in the aging population; thus, the risk of frailty increases, and it becomes imperative to address the limitations of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of frailty in this area of the world.Objective: This protocol describes a scoping review that will investigate what is known about frailty in older adults living in ASCs. The aim is to synthesize and map the literature addressing the concept of frailty, its association with other geriatric conditions, and measurement tools used to identify or assess frailty among this subpopulation in this part of the world.Methods: This review will employ Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines (JBI). Studies considered for this review must involve the concept of frailty among older adults living in the Arabic-speaking world. Conclusion/Discussion: This scoping review protocol outlines the specific methodologies to improve the overall quality of the finalized scoping review. The finalized scoping review will present an overview of the current literature on frailty in older adults living in ASCs and summarize the knowledge gaps in frailty assessment and interventions.
