A large-scale national database of federal employees who participated in the smoking cessation intervention from January 2009 to January 2019 was obtained from FOH's administrators. The sample included 1265 participants who completed the survey 6 months post intervention. Descriptive statistics, chi square (c2), Pearson's correlation, and logistic regression were used to describe and correlate variables. Out of 1243 smokers, 590 (47.5%) successfully quit smoking while 653 (52.5%) did not quit smoking post intervention. Employees smoked, on average, for 23 years and smoked 18 cigarettes (more than ½ pack) per day before quitting. There was a positive correlation between the number of cigarettes smoked and number of years smoked before quitting. As the number of cigarettes and length of time smoking increased, the odds of quitting increased. FOH's cessation intervention helped participants quit smoking. FOH is positioned to integrate cessation strategies with its health promotion and protection programs to help end tobacco-related illnesses and diseases. The investigators' findings provide important evidence and support for FOH's work-site smoking cessation intervention. FOH could collaborate with other federal entities and provide evidence-based smoking cessation interventions with limited or no barriers.</p>","PeriodicalId":73847,"journal":{"name":"Journal of National Black Nurses' Association : JNBNA","volume":"31 2","pages":"53-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25393853","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 to improve adherence include psychosocial therapy and education, offering and beginning antipsychotic long-acting injections, electronic reminders, service-based interventions, and financial support systems. However, it is difficult to measure the standard of adherence to treatment, as some of the interventions are not applicable to most patients. We conducted a literature review focusing on related topics published from 2014 until 2019 using PubMed and CINAHL searching tools. Other mental health disorders were excluded from our search to avoid confounding the results.

Although understudied, pregnancy in the presence of COVID-19 increases the risk for illness severity. Data suggest that pregnant women with COVID-19 are more likely to be hospitalized, to be admitted to the intensive care unit, and to require life support. Similarly, COVID-19 poses significant challenges to maternal and obstetric care during the postpartum recovery period. African- American women bear a disproportionately higher morbidity and mortality burden for diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. Pre-existing chronic health conditions may place pregnant and postpartum women at a higher risk for developing severe health consequences from COVID-19 before, during, and after delivery.

All the study participants were male and from 31 to 91 years of age. A pre- and post-intervention diabetes knowledge test, body mass index (BMI), lipids, blood pressure, and lifestyle data were obtained as predictor variables. A1c levels were measured at baseline and fructosamine levels at 8-12 weeks post-intervention and converted to A1c levels. A diabetes toolkit was presented as an educational intervention to participating veterans. The pre- and post-intervention knowledge test measured an increase (p = 0.001) in diabetes knowledge. The pre- and post-intervention BMI, lipids, and blood pressure assessments measured changes in such variables associated with toolkit exposure. The regression model was marginally significant (p = 0.055) and the predictor variables explained 18.8% of variance in change of A1c.
