Increasingly, these tactics operate across digital platforms, contributing to unhealthy dietary patterns, rising obesity levels, and widespread exposure to foods high in fat, sugar, or salt. Vulnerable groups such as children, adolescents, parents, and socioeconomically disadvantaged communities face higher risks owing to limited capacity to recognize or resist persuasive marketing and targeted commercial practices. Despite clear evidence of harm, regulatory progress remains limited, constrained by voluntary industry pledges, neoliberal policy norms, and a lack of digital-specific protections. This commentary argues for stronger, mandatory, World Health Organization-aligned regulatory measures and coordinated prevention strategies across all levels of public health prevention to reduce exposure, protect vulnerable populations, and prioritize public well-being over commercial interests.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759261424836"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147356847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to investigate specific internet websites associated with online searching for information about sex and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A cross-sectional study was carried out on 702 high school students in Belgrade, the capital city of Serbia. Relevant data were obtained through an anonymous questionnaire. The questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, use of the internet and online platforms.

The prevalence of seeking online information about sex was 31.9% and 12.4% about STIs. Being a boy, having lower grades, attending the humanities-languages program, being younger when using the internet for the first time, using forums and social media, but not websites run by physicians, and browsing online information about STIs were associated with seeking online information about sex.

Based on the Common-Sense Model, the current study aimed to investigate and document the public's perceptions of COVID-19, examine the relationship between health literacy, fear of COVID-19, and illness perceptions and explore their role in the adoption of protective behaviours. Data from 330 adults were collected through an electronic questionnaire, including the Perceived Stress Scale, the Brief Illness Perceptions Questionnaire, the European Health Literacy Questionnaire-16, the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale, the Fear of COVID-19 Scale, and items related to socio-demographic characteristics, protective behaviours and experience of illness. The results show that increased fear was correlated to more dysfunctional perceptions and increased adherence to protective behaviours (mask use and intention to vaccinate). Increased health literacy was correlated to more functional perceptions and higher intention to use masks, but not to get vaccinated. Health literacy was a significant mediator in the relationship between fear and illness perceptions and between fear and protective behaviours. The results could be useful for promoting public health risk prevention. Targeting strategies for managing negative emotions and enhancing health literacy could be an important step toward more functional illness perceptions and health behaviours.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"88-98"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144530330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, existing literature highlights a lack of systems thinking and coordination, limiting sports clubs' capacity to implement sustainable health promotion interventions. The aim of this article is to describe the scaling-up process and the initial systems map of a health promotion intervention in sports clubs - the PROSCeSS intervention - and to discuss the use of the ExpandNet/WHO guide in this context.A participatory research approach using the nine-step guide from the ExpandNet/WHO was used. Five 2-hour meetings, completed with feedback and questionnaires between meetings, involving 36 stakeholders (14 from public health, 7 from sports, 7 academics and 8 political actors, from local to national levels), were recorded. The data (notes, meeting minutes, questionnaires) were analysed using a deductive process based on the nine-step ExpandNet/WHO guide. Results enabled researchers to identify targets of the intervention, as well as challenges and facilitators for implementing health promotion interventions in sports clubs. Fifty political, sports, academic and public health organisations at local and regional levels were identified as being able to support the scaling-up of the intervention, endorsing different roles : 1) methodological support, 2) communication, 3) provision of resources, 4) advocacy and 5) research. Twenty-two actions were identified and prioritised to support organisations in fulfilling the role they can play in the institutionalisation and expansion of health promotion in sports clubs. This work contributes to strengthening the multi-level systems thinking needed for health promotion implementation in sports clubs, enhancing their societal role to support individuals' health.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"45-55"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144334076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
