The United States Food and Drug Administration proposed a rule to ban flavored cigars, which could impact co-use, particularly blunt use (removing tobacco from cigar and mixing or replacing with cannabis). We sought to explore the impact of cigarillo flavor on cannabis/cigarillo co-use. The sample included 38 young adults (21-28) who smoked cigarillos and cannabis in the past month recruited from a non-probability sample of participants in the Cigarillos Flavor and Abuse Liability, Attention, and Substitution (C-FLASH) Study. Semi-structured phone interviews were conducted, double-coded, and analyzed for emergent themes. Most participants believed cigarillo flavor enhances the co-use experience, but participants mostly felt that a cigar flavor ban would not impact their cannabis use. They would continue using unflavored cigarillos to roll blunts or migrate to another method of consuming cannabis. Other influential cigarillo characteristics (e.g., burn time) and social-contextual factors (e.g., management of mental health, easy access) emerged. Banning flavored cigars may have a neutral to positive impact on co-users. To reduce co-use, policymakers should consider approaches to address psychosocial and structural determinants of use.</p>","PeriodicalId":73205,"journal":{"name":"Health behavior research","volume":"8 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12121993/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144183131","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}

Obesity is related to negative impacts across all aspects of cancer care as well as more adverse side effects of cancer treatment. African American breast cancer survivors (BCS) show higher incidences of chronic conditions, like obesity, with barriers to body wellness. Lifestyle interventions can improve survivorship outcomes, but most have not been adapted to African American BCS needs. The purpose of this research is to explore and honor the lived experiences of breast cancer survivorship among African American women with obesity to better understand their experiences and perceptions of how their cancer journey intersects with other health behaviors and to identify barriers to health-promoting behaviors. A co-design approach with five participants was used to understand specific barriers to a healthy weight and lifestyle as well as potential solutions that would benefit African American or Black BCS entering an evidence-based lifestyle intervention that targeted weight and body wellness. Participants completed one co-design session for problem identification. This initial session identified the participants' most impactful cancer- and non-cancer-related barriers to building health behaviors. Cancer- and non-cancer-related barriers to a healthy lifestyle were identified from artifact creation and affinity diagramming for intensity and frequency. Top cancer-related barriers were pain and fatigue related to cancer treatment and its side effects. Non-cancer related barriers included time and responsibilities, lack of nutritional information and culturally, medically sensitive exercise resources, as well as restrictive definitions of health used by medical professionals. Both cancer-related and non-cancer-related barriers were identified as contributing to difficulty in maintaining health behaviors. Further research should examine how these barriers can be addressed in lifestyle interventions targeted to African American BCS.</p>","PeriodicalId":73205,"journal":{"name":"Health behavior research","volume":"7 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12366777/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144981077","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}

However, lifestyle change can be challenging even with positive intentions. The Health Action Process Approach (HAPA) theoretical framework bridges the intention-behavior gap by targeting planning behaviors and strengthening efficacious beliefs for behavioral change. In the current trial, an adaptive design was employed to examine differences in HAPA measures (i.e., planning and self-efficacy) regarding the target behaviors of dietary intake and physical activity (PA). Adults ≥ 21 years old with overweight or obesity and prediabetes (n = 185) received the standard Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB) intervention during the first month of treatment. Weight loss responders (lost > 2.5% of weight) at week five remained in GLB during weeks 5-16; slow responders (lost ≤ 2.5%) were stratified to the adaptive GLB Plus (GLB+) intervention during weeks 5-16. GLB+ augmented self-regulatory skills and practices consistent with HAPA. We conducted mixed model analyses with a group-by-time interaction for fixed effects at four months. GLB experienced greater improvement in behavioral intention for both diet and PA, planning behaviors (action and coping planning) for diet, and self-efficacy beliefs (action and maintenance self-efficacy) for PA compared to GLB+ (all <i>p</i>s < .0125). However, GLB+ also experienced statistically significant improvement in planning and self-efficacy and in energy intake and food group servings (all <i>p</i>s < .01). Whereas an adaptive intervention can be advantageous in improving HAPA measures and food choices, greater focus on increasing PA is needed. Additional research may help to determine effective PA strategies.</p>","PeriodicalId":73205,"journal":{"name":"Health behavior research","volume":"7 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11488647/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142482353","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}

In mid-2021, we assessed the acceptability and application of implementation outcomes to the process of designing and implementing cancer clinical trials as perceived by physician stakeholders using semi-structured interviews. We were able to expand our interviews as we found remote interviews with automated rapid transcription provided by Zoom^™ through the Otter.ai platform to be efficient, highly accurate, and inexpensive. Thus, we were able to engage stakeholders from multiple specialties and perspectives. All interviews were conducted by a single interviewer via Zoom between July and September 2021.
