Walking is associated with reduced diabetes incidence, but few studies have examined whether it reduces mortality among those who already diabetes.To estimate the association between walking and risk for all-cause cardiovascular disease (CVD) persons diabetes.Prospective cohort study of a representative sample US population.Interviewer-administered survey in general community.We sampled 2896 adults 18 years older as part 1990 1991 National Health Interview Survey.All-cause CVD 8...
Background: Although weight loss improves risk factors for cardiovascular and metabolic disease, it is unclear whether intentional reduces mortality rates. Objective: To examine the relationships among intention to lose weight, loss, all-cause mortality. Design: Prospective cohort study using a probability sample of U.S. population. Setting: Interviewer-administered survey. Participants: 6391 overweight obese persons (body mass index 25 kg/m2) who were at least 35 years age. Measurements:...
Introduction:Multiunit housing (MUH) residents are susceptible to secondhand smoke (SHS), which can infiltrate smoke-free living units from nearby and shared areas where smoking is permitted. This study assessed the prevalence characteristics of MUH residency in United States, extent SHS infiltration this environment at both national state levels.
The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between intention lose weight, actual weight loss, and all-cause mortality among overweight individuals with diabetes.We performed a prospective analysis 1,401 diabetic adults aged > or =35 years sampled in National Health Interview Survey. previous year change were assessed by self-report. Nine-year rates examined according intent which adjusted for age, sex, education, ethnicity, smoking, initial body diabetes complications.Individuals...
OBJECTIVE—Recent data suggest that residential environment may influence health behaviors and outcomes. We assessed whether perception of neighborhood problems was associated with diabetes RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—This cross-sectional analysis included 7,830 diabetic adults enrolled in Translating Research Into Action for Diabetes, a study care outcomes managed settings. Perception measured using summary score participants’ ratings crime, trash, litter, lighting at night, access to...
To examine racial/ethnic and economic variation in cost-related medication underuse among insured adults with diabetes.We surveyed 5,086 participants from the multicenter Translating Research Into Action for Diabetes Study. Respondents reported whether they used less because of cost past 12 months. We examined unadjusted adjusted rates underuse, using hierarchical regression, to determine race/ethnicity differences still existed after accounting economic, health, other demographic...
OBJECTIVE—This study examines the association between physician gender and diabetes quality of care. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—We examined primary care physicians (n = 1,686) they provided to their patients participating in Translating Research Into Action for Diabetes (TRIAD) study. Main outcome measures were processes including receipt dilated retinal exams, urine microalbumin/protein testing, foot lipid HbA1c (A1C) recommendation take aspirin, influenza vaccination over 1 year....
Objectives. We evaluated whether ethnicity and language are associated with diabetes care for Latinos in managed care. Methods. Using data from 4685 individuals the Translating Research Into Action Diabetes (TRIAD) Study, a multicenter study of care, we constructed multivariate regression models to compare health behaviors, processes intermediate outcomes Whites English- Spanish-speaking Latinos. Results. had lower rates self-monitoring blood glucose worse glycemic control than did Whites,...
Background: Performance of diabetes clinical care processes has improved recently, but control hemoglobin A1c (A1c) and other vascular disease risk factors more slowly. Objectives: To identify patient associated with among patients receiving recommended processes. Population: Managed enrollees who participated in the TRIAD (Translating Research into Action for Diabetes) Study received at least 5 7 during 12 months before second survey (2002–2003). Methods: Comparison 1003 good (<8%),...
Background: Versus whites, blacks with diabetes have poorer control of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), higher systolic blood pressure (SBP), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol as well rates morbidity microvascular complications. Objective: To examine whether several mutable risk factors were more strongly associated poor multiple intermediate outcomes among than similar whites. Design: Case-control study. Subjects: A total 764 whites receiving care within 8 managed health plans. Measures:...
<h3>Importance</h3> Timely eye care can prevent unnecessary vision loss. <h3>Objectives</h3> To estimate the number of US adults 18 years or older at high risk for loss in 2017 and to evaluate use services compared with 2002. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This survey study used data from 2002 (n = 30 920) 32 886) National Health Interview Survey, an annual, cross-sectional, nationally representative sample noninstitutionalized civilians. Analysis excluded respondents younger than...
The increasing burdens of obesity and diabetes are two the most prominent threats to health populations developed developing countries alike. Central America Diabetes Initiative (CAMDI) is first study examine prevalence in America.The CAMDI survey was a cross-sectional based on probabilistic sample noninstitutionalized population five American conducted between 2003 2006. total 10,822, whom 7,234 (67%) underwent anthropometry measurement fasting blood glucose or 2-h oral tolerance test.The...
Abstract On 21 August 2017, a total solar eclipse traversed the continental United States and caused large‐scale changes in ionospheric densities. These were detected as medium‐ high‐frequency radio propagation by Solar Eclipse QSO Party citizen science experiment organized Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (hamsci.org). This is first eclipse‐ionospheric study to make use of measurements from citizen‐operated, global‐scale HF network develop tools for comparison physics‐based model...
Vision impairment affects approximately 3.22 million persons in the United States and is associated with social isolation, disability, decreased quality of life (1). Cognitive decline more common adults vision (2,3). Subjective cognitive (SCD), which self-reported experience worsening or frequent confusion memory loss within past 12 months, 11.2% aged ≥45 years (4). One consequence SCD occurrence functional limitations, especially those related to usual daily activities; however, it not...
Although preventing diabetes complications requires long-term management, little is known about which patients persistently fail to get recommended care.
Appalachia is a region of the United States noted for poverty and poor health outcomes its residents. Residents poorest Appalachian counties have high prevalence diabetes risk factors (obesity, low income, education, etc.) type 2 diabetes. However, exceeds what these alone explain. Based on this, history in Appalachia, personally observed rates childhood obesity lack concern about prediabetes, we speculated that people with diagnosed might tend to be younger than their non-Appalachian...
