Dietary acculturation, or adoption of dominant culture diet by migrant groups, influences human health. We aimed to examine dietary acculturation and its relationships with cardiovascular disease (CVD), gut microbiota, blood metabolites among US Hispanic Latino adults.
Abstract Background Higher levels of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity have been associated with a lower risk diabetes, but less is known about how daily step counts (steps/day) are diabetes risk. Therefore, we examined the association steps/day and intensity incident diabetes. Methods We included 6634 adults from population-based prospective cohort Hispanic Community Health Study/Study Latinos (HCHS/SOL) (2008–2017). Cox proportional hazard models that accounted for complex survey...
Introduction: Dietary acculturation, defined as diet adaptation after migration, is related to human health. However, the influence of dietary acculturation on cardiovascular disease (CVD) largely unknown, nor potential mechanism clear. Hypothesis: (diet reflecting U.S. exposure - years in and nativity [U.S. 50 states/DC vs. foreign-born]) associated with altered gut microbiota metabolites, which may contribute CVD risk. Methods: A score was derived from 14172 participants two 24-hr recalls...
Introduction: Physical activity has been associated with a lower risk of diabetes but less is known about the association steps per day (steps/d) and step intensity incident diabetes. Hypothesis: We hypothesized an inverse between both number steps/d time spent at stepping rate corresponding to purposeful ( > 40 steps/min) Methods: included 7247 participants free baseline in prospective HCHS/SOL cohort Latinos sampled from four communities United States. Steps/d minutes (min/d) steps/min...
As humans increasingly settle in dense urban areas, localized natural and anthropogenic shocks become more likely to impact larger numbers of individuals. Research suggests that resilience is a function physical fortifications social processes including critical infrastructure, networks, trust. Although are relatively easy identify catalog, elude simple measurement due data limitations geographic constraints. Recent work has shown certain types infrastructure may correlate with enhance...
As more humans settle in dense urban areas, the effect of natural or anthropogenically induced shocks at these locations has an increased potential to impact larger numbers individuals. In particular, a disruption delivery goods and services can leave large portions population vulnerable state. Research suggests that resilience is function physical fortifications social processes, such as levees critical infrastructure, strength networks, community efficacy, trust. While are relatively easy...
As complexity and diversity of military assets increase, ensuring that forces are well-trained becomes complex costly when relying on traditional classroom instruction. Human instructors bear the burden manually creating training datasets with tools often not geared to their missions, tasks, objectives. Further, analyzing how well students learned tasks requires collecting managing student performance over time, which may be feasible in time-critical situations, consume instructor time...
