The transcripts the were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis;...
Self-tracking can help personalize self-management interventions for chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes (T2D), but reflecting on personal data requires motivation and literacy. Machine learning (ML) methods identify patterns, a key challenge is making actionable suggestions based health data. We introduce GlucoGoalie, which combines ML with an expert system to translate output into personalized nutrition goal individuals T2D. In controlled experiment, participants T2D found that were...

Rural public health personnel serve communities that have been particularly susceptible to COVID-19 and yet faced the pandemic with far less well-resourced capacity than their urban counterparts. A critical aspect of addressing local inequities is access high-quality population data effectively use support decision making. However, much required investigate are not readily available rural departments tools training analyze often lacking.
To create and evaluate a public health informatics tool, Florence, for communicating information to the public.
The aim of the current study was to explore relationships among perceived cognitive function, glucose variability, and self-management in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A mixed methods design used data from: (a) questionnaires on function self-management; (b) continuous monitoring (CGM) reports; (c) semi-structured interviews. Thirty T2DM (47% female; mean age = 68.5 [SD 5.2] years) participated. Those who exercised more days per week had stable glucose. reported fewer...
Abstract Purpose The study purpose was to compare dissemination of PhD dissertation research by format: traditional (five‐chapter document providing a complete and systematic account the research) versus an alternate (substudy [document containing three smaller studies but not written as stand‐alone manuscripts] or publication more related manuscripts intended for submission published in peer‐reviewed journal]) format. Design A retrospective all dissertations (1999–2019) from one intensive...
Diabetes knowledge is associated with health, including lower A1C levels. The Knowledge Questionnaire (DKQ-24), developed 30 years ago for Mexican Americans type 2 diabetes and since used diverse samples in many countries, contains outdated items that no longer accurately assess current needed self-management. We revised the DKQ-24 tested psychometric properties of DKQ-Revised (DKQ-R) a sample.We conducted five-phase instrumentation study as follows: 1) were to reflect care standards; 2)...
Acute respiratory tract infections ( ARI ) are a major burden in pediatric long‐term care. We analyzed the financial impact of 2012–2013. Costs associated with during viral season were ten times greater than non‐respiratory season, $31 224 and $3242 per 1000 patient‐days, respectively P < 0·001). burdensome for care facilities not only because morbidity mortality, but also due to great costs prevention.
People with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) experience elevated risk for poor health social outcomes in adulthood are at experiencing homelessness housing instability. Although the exact prevalence of IDD among homeless populations is unknown, a small body literature related to intersection suggests differential needs service use patterns, need targeted services. In this study, we explore perceptions experiences 18 or disability providers about (a) their clients (b) role...
Purpose The purpose of this study is to use text-mining methods examine the dominant sources online information and content about continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). Because internet most popular source for health information, it important understand what being said CGMs in information. Methods A text miner, algorithmic-driven statistical program was used identify main topics on CGMs. Content limited English posted from August 1, 2020, 4, 2022.

We present an analysis of challenges facing public health nursing faculty members (PHNF) in the United States and their broader societal implications. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated these challenges, making them untenable. Current academic structures—influenced by sociopolitical climate—are problematic for PHNF: they disincentivize PHNF from researching social determinants systems, teaching systems-level content that may be deemed “controversial” is not included on licensure exams,...
