Nutrition standards limited sugary drinks served by city agencies. Mass media campaigns educated New Yorkers on the added sugars in sugary drinks and their health impact. Policy proposals included an...... hiện toàn bộ
Transgender Population Size in the United States: a Meta-Regression of Population-Based Probability Samples
American journal of public health - Tập 107 Số 2 - Trang e1-e8 - 2017
Esther L. Meerwijk, Jae Sevelius
Background. Transgender individuals have a gender identity that differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. The population size of transgender individuals in the United States is not well-known, in part because official records, including the US Census, do not include data on gender identity. Population surveys today more often collect transgender-inclusive gender-identity data, and...... hiện toàn bộ
Cancer-related risk indicators and preventive screening behaviors among lesbians and bisexual women

METHODS: Prevalence estimates of behavioral risk factors (nulliparity, obesity, smoking, and alcohol use), cancer screening behaviors, and self-reported breast cancer histories derived from 7 indepen...... hiện toàn bộ
The transfer of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) across the human placenta and into maternal milk.
American journal of public health - Tập 74 Số 4 - Trang 378-379 - 1984
Joseph L. Jacobson, Greta G. Fein, Sandra W. Jacobson, Peter H. Schwartz, Jeffrey K. Dowler
Cord serum and maternal milk levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) were examined in relation to maternal serum levels. Maternal serum levels were significantly higher than cord serum levels for both types of compounds. Placental passage was indicated by significant maternal to cord serum correlations for both PCBs (r = .42) and PBBs (r = .81). Corr...... hiện toàn bộ
Neighborhood Social Inequalities in Road Traffic Injuries: The Influence of Traffic Volume and Road Design
American journal of public health - Tập 102 Số 6 - Trang 1112-1119 - 2012
Patrick Martineau, Lise Gauvin, Céline Plante, Michel Fournier, Catherine Morency
Objectives. We examined the extent to which differential traffic volume and road geometry can explain social inequalities in pedestrian, cyclist, and motor vehicle occupant injuries across wealthy and poor urban areas. Methods. We performed a multilevel observational study of all road users injured over 5 years (n = 19 568) at intersections (n = 17 498) in a large urban ...... hiện toàn bộ

The relationships between exposure to sunlight and to the ultraviolet-B (UVB) component of light and the prevalence of lens opacities were examined in the Beaver Dam Eye Study. METHODS. Persons 43 to 84 years of age residing in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, were examined using standardized photographic assessm...... hiện toàn bộ
From Mosques to Classrooms: Mobilizing the Community to Enhance Case Detection of Tuberculosis

Rifat Atun, I. D. Rusen, Mohammad Hasan Mahmud, Israt Nayer, Akramul Islam, Faruque Ahmed
In response to the global challenge of inadequate case detection of tuberculosis (TB), the Fund for Innovative DOTS Expansion through Local Initiatives to Stop Tuberculosis (FIDELIS) was developed in 2003 to rapidly assess and implement innovative approaches to increase the detection of new smear-positive TB cases. As previously reported, a wide range of target populations and interventio...... hiện toàn bộ
Longitudinal tracking of adolescent smoking, physical activity, and food choice behaviors.
American journal of public health - Tập 84 Số 7 - Trang 1121-1126 - 1994
Steven H. Kelder, Cheryl L. Perry, Knut‐Inge Klepp, Leslie L. Lytle
OBJECTIVES. A major assumption underlying youth health promotion has been that physiological risk factors track from childhood into adulthood. However, few studies have systematically examined how behaviors change during adolescence. This paper describes longitudinal tracking of adolescent health behaviors in two Minnesota Heart Health Program communities. METHODS. Beginning in sixth grad...... hiện toàn bộ
