Fourteen participants-MSM (n = 7; 50%), genderqueer/nonbinary persons (n = 4; 29%) and TGW (n = 3; 21%)-in Cape Town were recruited and enrolled in the intervention and administered pre- and post-intervention assessments of HIV knowledge, HIV risk-reduction self-efficacy, stigma and resilience.

Scores on HIV knowledge and HIV risk-reduction self-efficacy were statistically significantly higher at post-intervention compared with pre-intervention. Additionally, participants responded affirmatively (i.e. 'Agree' or 'Strongly agree') on all items assessing intervention acceptability. Findings demonstrate the high acceptability, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an arts- and theatre-based intervention for increasing HIV knowledge and HIV risk-reduction self-efficacy among MSM and TGW migrants in South Africa.

We analyzed the data from a nationally representative two-wave rolling cross-sectional survey of YYA in the United States, collected from 2014 to 2017 (baseline n = 10 642; follow-up n = 4001). Less than 5% of the participants ever scanned pro-smoking and anti-vaping information. Scanning anti-smoking information had significant positive relationships with support for all anti-smoking policies cross-sectionally, and this pattern was longitudinally significant in two anti-smoking policy contexts. Scanning pro-vaping information had significant negative associations with support for anti-vaping policies cross-sectionally, but not longitudinally. The lagged positive relationships between scanning anti-smoking information and support for anti-smoking regulations were stronger among YYA smokers than among YYA non-smokers, whereas evidence from adult data suggested the opposite pattern. The findings suggest that scanning information can affect YYA support for tobacco regulations. Future efforts are required to investigate mechanisms underlying the influences of scanned information on YYA support for tobacco regulations.","PeriodicalId":48236,"journal":{"name":"Health Education Research","volume":" ","pages":"426-444"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10516358/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9972367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies were extracted from PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases. Nine studies, comprising 2627 participants, were included.

SBP and DBP were significantly reduced at the 6-month (MD = -4.38 mmHg, 95% CI: -6.95 to -1.81; MD = -2.09 mmHg, 95% CI: -3.69 to -0.50, respectively) and 12-month time points (MD = -2.48 mmHg, 95% CI: -3.96 to -1.01; MD = -1.71 mmHg, 95% CI: -2.88 to -0.55, respectively) with intervention.

Guided by UK Medical Research Council's framework, using embedded mixed-methods design, continuous process evaluation documented fidelity, dose, reach, acceptability and mechanisms. Intervention was implemented as intended, with high reach (91%) in both groups: 'comparison group' (n = 366): inadequate use of pamphlets (46%); 'intervention group' (n = 366): with timely remedial measures to remove implementation/usage barriers, dose of SMS (93%), WhatsApp (89%) and 'SMART Eating' kit (100%) was adequate, but website usage was low (50%); compliance was evident from participants' interactions with the implementor and observations on kit usage. All these might have improved attitude, social influence, self-efficacy and household behaviours, which, in turn, mediated intervention's effect on improving FSS and FV intake. Among poor performers, lack of effect on FV intake was perceived to be related to high cost/pesticides use and FSS intake was related to lack of family support. Low website usage, challenges with WhatsApp messaging and contextual factors (cost, pesticides abuse and family support) need to be considered while designing similar future interventions.","PeriodicalId":48236,"journal":{"name":"Health Education Research","volume":" ","pages":"469-489"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9489114","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}

Twenty-eight trained CHAs implemented a series of three cancer educational group workshops for N = 375 workshop participants across 14 churches.

However, CHAs with family history of cancer had significantly greater participant attendance at the workshops than CHAs without family history of cancer (P = 0.03) and a significant, positive association with male workshop participants' prostate cancer knowledge scores at 12 months (estimated beta coefficient = 0.49, P < 0.01) after adjusting for confounders.
