Methods: A pre–post, one-group design was used with a convenience sample (n = 24) of Latino adults with type 2 diabetes and A1C ≥ 7 who consented to participate. Over 8 weeks, participants were sent 23 educational and motivational text messages that were based on the American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) 7 self-care tasks and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Diabetes knowledge, self-efficacy, self-care, and A1C were measured. Results: Diabetes knowledge, self-efficacy, self-care, and A1C improved after 8 weeks. Statistically significant results (p < .05) were seen in two of the four evaluation instruments administered (Spoken Knowledge in Low Literacy in Diabetes Scale [SKILLD], p = .001, Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale [DSES], p = .000). A1C improvements were significant (0.86 or 10 mmol/mol) from the pre-intervention (M = 9.06 [76 mmol/mol], SD = 1.49) to the post-intervention (M = 8.20 [66 mmol/mol], SD = 1.27, t [23] = 3.02, p = .006). Conclusion: Personalized communication, education, and follow-up via text messages improved diabetes knowledge, self-efficacy, self-care, and A1C among pilot project participants. Text messages are a useful tool for diabetes management.","PeriodicalId":35432,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic Health Care International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41342474","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}

Factors varying in priority and value come into play during contraceptive decision making. When measuring these, relevant survey items may vary by populations.Aim: This study focused on developing an ethnically responsive, patient-centered, content-valid survey for measuring factors that influence contraceptive decision making among immigrant Latinas.Method: Nonpregnant self-identified Latinas ages 15 to 24 years in Baltimore, MD, were recruited from a family planning facility. Using the theory of planned behavior as a theoretical framework and prior formative research, initial survey items were drafted (Step 1). Content validation and cognitive interviewing procedures (Step 2 and Step 3) were used to develop final items.Results: Final items (27) were content-validated by the target population; items reflect important factors and relevant contexts affecting contraceptive decision making among Latinas in Baltimore.Discussion: These theory-based items provide an important contribution to the literature because they measure and explore factors related to contraceptive decision making in an understudied population. Providers might consider these factors during counseling to build patient-centered communication. These items might serve to measure responses to theory of planned behavior-based interventions designed to improve the contraceptive counseling of Latinas.","PeriodicalId":35432,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic Health Care International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1540415319883422","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41994370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple cross-sectoral obesity prevention strategies have been implemented yet remain unsuccessful in generating sustainable lifestyle changes. Method: The purpose of this integrative review, using the Whittemore and Knafl method, was to examine the literature from 2009 to 2018 regarding Mexican American parental knowledge and perceptions of childhood obesity. The CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, and ERIC databases were used to search the literature, and 13 peer-reviewed articles met the inclusion criteria. Results: Three main themes emerged from the literature synthesis: (1) parental misperception of child body weight and size, (2) influence of cultural health and growth beliefs on parental perception of child weight, and (3) parental perspectives of causes and consequences of childhood obesity and how to address it. However, cultural variations in parental perceptions were found; therefore, attempts to generalize Mexican Americans’ cultural practices should be avoided. Conclusion: Studies using qualitative approaches are needed to gain deeper insights about Mexican American culture regarding children’s health as it relates to body weight, the roles of different family members in the Mexican American childrearing tradition, and the impact of their associated health beliefs.","PeriodicalId":35432,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic Health Care International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1540415319873400","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41962729","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}

The aim of this secondary analysis was to explore predictors of changes in mean systolic and diastolic BPs over an 8-week weight loss intervention period in a sample of 54 overweight American Latinos using data collected during the Adelgaza trial. Baseline BP, exercise energy use (in units of metabolic equivalent of task), weight change, average daily intake of calories from beverages, average daily intake of calories from fat, age, and gender were considered as potential predictors of reductions in BP, as measured at baseline, 3, and 8 weeks. Baseline characteristics were as follows: mean age 45.3 (SD = 10.8) years, 31.5% male, 61.1% born in the United States. Mean baseline systolic and diastolic BPs were 122.1 (SD = 14.4) mmHg and 76.6 (SD = 9.8) mmHg, respectively. Both baseline systolic and diastolic BPs predicted reductions in systolic BP after adjusting for other factors (p < .001). None of the nine variables predicted reductions in diastolic BP (p > .05). This finding suggests that overweight American Latinos with higher baseline systolic or diastolic BP should be identified and provided with early intervention education to achieve better hypertension management or prevention.","PeriodicalId":35432,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic Health Care International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1540415319869936","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48668221","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}
