Published: October 2019

Objective: To describe the rationale and design of a prospective study of ambula­tory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) combined with measurement of contextual factors to identify hypertensive phenotypes in a Caribbean population with high rates of HTN and cardiovascular disease.Design: Prospective, multi-center sub-study.Setting: Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network Cohort (ECHORN) Study, with study sites in Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados.Participants: Community-residing adults without a diagnosis of HTN and not taking antihypertensive medication.Intervention: Ambulatory BP patterns are assessed using 24-hour ABPM. Contextual factors are assessed with: ecological mo­mentary assessment (7-item survey of expe­riences, exposures and responses associated with daytime BP measurements); actigra­phy (capturing physical activity and sleep quality); and self-report surveys (assessing physical and social health, environmental and social stressors and supports).Main Outcome Measures: Phenotypes of contextual factors associated with hyperten­sive BP patterns (sustained HTN, masked HTN, and nocturnal non-dipping)Methods and Results: This study will enroll 500 participants; assessments of blood pressure and contextual factors will be conducted during Waves 2 and 3 of the ECHORN parent study, occurring 2 years apart. In Wave 2, we will assess the associa­tion between contextual factors and ABPM patterns. Using advanced analytic clustering methods, we will identify phenotypes of contextual factors associated with hyper­tensive ABPM patterns. We will then test the stability of these phenotypes and their ability to predict change in ABPM patterns between Waves 2 and 3.Conclusions: Assessment of ABPM, and the contextual factors influencing ABPM, can identify unique phenotypes of HTN, which can then be used to develop more preci­sion-based approaches to the prevention, detection and treatment of HTN in high-risk populations.Ethn Dis. 2019;29(4):535-544; doi:10.18865/ed.29.4.535
Leveraging Delivery of Blood Pressure Control Interventions among Low-income African American Adults: Opportunities to Increase Social Support and Produce Family-level Behavior Change
Authors: Yang Tracy J. , Cooper Lisa A. , Boulware L. Ebony , Thornton Rachel L. J.
Published: October 2019

Purpose: Few family-oriented cardiovas­cular risk reduction interventions exist that leverage the home environment to produce health behavior change among multiple family members. We identified opportu­nities to adapt disease self-management interventions included in a blood pressure control comparative effectiveness trial for hypertensive African American adults to ad­dress family-level factors.Methods: We conducted and analyzed semi-structured interviews with five inter­vention study staff (all study intervention­ists and the study coordinator) between December 2016 and January 2017 and with 11 study participants between Septem­ber and November 2015.1 All study staff involved with intervention delivery and co­ordination were interviewed. We sampled adult participants from the parent study, and we analyzed interviews that were originally obtained as part of a previous study based on their status as a caregiver of an adoles­cent family member.1Results: Thematic analysis identified family influences on disease management and the importance of relationships between index patients and family members, between in­dex patients and study peers, and between index patients and study staff through study participation to understand social effects on healthy behaviors. We identified four themes: 1) the role of family in health behavior change; 2) the impact of family dynamics on health behaviors; 3) building peer relationships through intervention par­ticipation; and 4) study staff role conflict.Conclusions: These findings inform development of family-oriented interven­tions to improve health behaviors among African American index patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease and their family members.Ethn Dis. 2019;29(4):549-558; doi:10.18865/ed.29.4.549
INFLUENCES OF RESPONSE RATE AND DISTRIBUTION ON THE CALCULATION OF INTEROBSERVER RELIABILITY SCORES
Authors: Rolider Natalie U. , Iwata Brian A. , Bullock Christopher E.
Published: October 2019

We examined the effects of several variations in response rate on the calculation of total, interval, exact‐agreement, and proportional reliability indices. Trained observers recorded computer‐generated data that appeared on a computer screen. In Study 1, target responses occurred at low, moderate, and high rates during separate sessions so that reliability results based on the four calculations could be compared across a range of values. Total reliability was uniformly high, interval reliability was spuriously high for high‐rate responding, proportional reliability was somewhat lower for high‐rate responding, and exact‐agreement reliability was the lowest of the measures, especially for high‐rate responding. In Study 2, we examined the separate effects of response rate per se, bursting, and end‐of‐interval responding. Response rate and bursting had little effect on reliability scores; however, the distribution of some responses at the end of intervals decreased interval reliability somewhat, proportional reliability noticeably, and exact‐agreement reliability markedly.

The Mental Health of Hispanic/Latino Americans Following National Immigration Policy Changes: United States, 2014–2018
Authors: Bruzelius Emilie , Baum Aaron
Published: October 2019

Objectives. To examine the relationship between aggressive enforcement of anti-immigration policies and mental health among Hispanics/Latinos in the United States before and after major national immigration policy changes.

Methods. Data were drawn from Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System surveys administered from 2014 to 2018. The exposure was the rate of immigration arrests in the 2 months before the survey date within the respondent’s state of residence. Outcomes included past-month reporting of (1) number of days of poor mental health, (2) at least 1 day of poor mental health, and (3) frequent mental distress.

Results. There was no relationship between arrest rates and mental health among Hispanic/Latino respondents across the overall period. After consideration of policy changes, however, a 1-percentage-point increase in a state’s immigration arrest rate in the postpolicy period was significantly associated with each mental health morbidity outcome.

Conclusions. We found evidence supporting an association between worsening mental health among Hispanics/Latinos and increased arrest rates following the announcement of several restrictive immigration policies. The potential public health effects of aggressive immigration enforcement must be better acknowledged and addressed in immigration debates.
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Data: Why Disclosure Is Needed
Authors: Pomeranz Jennifer L.
Published: October 2019

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides funding to low-income households to purchase food at participating stores. The goals of the program include reducing hunger, improving nutrition, and strengthening the US food system. These are interrelated, as food access and choice depend on availability.

SNAP generates data that could be useful for program evaluation and evidence-based policymaking to reach public health goals. However, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) does not collect or disclose all SNAP-related data. In particular, the USDA does not systematically collect food expenditure data, and although it does collect transaction (sales) and redemption data (the amount retailers are reimbursed through SNAP), it does not release these data at the store level.

In 2018, Congress quietly changed the law to prohibit the USDA from disclosing store-level transaction and redemption data, and in 2019, the US Supreme Court blocked disclosure of these data. These federal proceedings can inform the outcome of additional efforts to disclose SNAP-related data, as well as future research and policy evaluation to support improved public health outcomes for SNAP beneficiaries.
Communicable Disease Outbreaks in Michigan Child Care Centers Compared With State and Regional Epidemics, 2014–2017
Authors: DeJonge Peter , Martin Emily T. , Hayashi Michael , Johnson Sarah , Hashikawa Andrew N.
Published: October 2019

The Michigan Child Care Related Infections Surveillance Program (MCRISP) is a novel, online illness surveillance system used by a collection of southeast Michigan child care centers. Recently established, MCRISP has not been assessed epidemiologically. We created MCRISP epidemic curves for both respiratory and gastrointestinal disease over three seasons, comparing these to data from an established statewide surveillance system. Results suggest that online child care center–based disease surveillance is timely, functional, and has potential as an early sentinel system for community epidemics.
Laws About Transparent School Vaccination Reporting: Public Health Context and Ethics
Authors: Cardenas-Comfort Caitlin , Majumder Mary
Published: October 2019

In response to a recent surge in vaccine exemptions for school-aged children, advocacy for transparency regarding school vaccination rates has gained momentum in the sphere of public policy and legislation. We explore the public health context for transparency-focused school vaccination reporting laws and recent legislative successes and failures. We then provide an ethical analysis of policy that mandates publicly accessible, granular reporting of school vaccination rates.

The ethical justification for this type of policy is robust. Although there is no evidence demonstrating its effects on public health, transparent school vaccination reporting has the potential to enhance individual and public decision-making, especially concerning the protection of children with compromised immune systems. This policy also offers the benefit of preserving the autonomy of parents who choose not to vaccinate their children.

Policymakers in all states should support passage of this type of legislation along with other effective vaccination policies, including evidence-based vaccine education for parents who seek exemptions and reimbursement for clinicians who provide vaccine-related counseling.
Recommendations From SNAP Participants to Improve Wages and End Stigma
Authors: Gaines-Turner Tianna , Simmons Joanna Cruz , Chilton Mariana
Published: October 2019

We present views of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) from the perspective of participants. We are SNAP participants and academic researchers who have worked together for 11 years to understand, explain, and address food insecurity.

SNAP is ensnared in much larger problems in US society related to the stigmatization of people who are poor and a lack of appreciation for the value and skills of their work. We encourage the public health community to think beyond SNAP, focus more assertively on wages and work supports, and replace our means-tested safety net with a new system of universal income that promotes equity, inclusion, and health for all.

Although we offer recommendations to improve SNAP, the goal of most SNAP recipients has always been to move beyond the need for this program. The public health community can take the lead in finding more egalitarian, dignified, and effective ways to address poverty and food insecurity.

Published: October 2019

Considerando a importância do uso da ensilagem como alternativa dos sistemas de alimentação animal, essa revisão objetiva apresentar resultados recentes disponíveis na literatura sobre alguns fatores que afetam o valor nutritivo da silagem, notadamente de forrageiras tropicais. A utilização de silagem na alimentação animal é uma prática importante na sustentabilidade dos sistemas produtivos, considerando os custos com alimentação animal, principalmente nos períodos seco do ano. A ensilagem de subprodutos da indústria pode ser uma importante ferramenta para diminuir a dependência de insumos externos, além de diminuir a contaminação ambiental por esses resíduos. As mudanças e perdas durante a ensilagem são influenciadas pelas características da planta forrageira e estão também associadas às práticas de manejo, colheita e armazenamento. Os fatores que influenciam no processo de ensilagem são muitos e agem isoladamente ou interagem entre si, que precisam ser considerados para obtenção de silagem de maior qualidade e mais estáveis. Resultados sobre a aplicação de aditivos enzimáticos ou sua associação com inoculantes em forrageiras tropicais são controversos na literatura disponível e dependentes das condições locais, con-centração e tipo de inoculante, método de aplicação, qualidade da planta forrageira, microflora pré-existente, entre outros fatores.
Conhecimento local e produção animal: uma perspectiva baseada na etnozootecnia.
Authors: Alves A. G. C. , Pires D. A. F. , Ribeiro M. N.
Published: October 2019

Este artigo tem como objetivo principal estabelecer um marco teórico e conceitual para a investigação etnozootécnica, situando-a no contexto das relações homem-animal-meio. Visa também descrever e analisar historicamente as relações da etnozootecnia com a própria zootecnia em geral e com outros ramos mais específicos do conhecimento como a etnologia zootécnica e a etnologia humana. A investigação etnocientífica é um entre muitos caminhos para registrar e compreender o conhecimento local, inclusive aquele relativo aos recursos naturais. Entre as abordagens etnocientíficas destaca-se, neste sentido, a etnozootecnia. Esta é compreendida aqui como uma abordagem etnocientífica dedicada à realização de estudos interdisciplinares a respeito dos conhecimentos, práticas e crenças das populações humanas (principalmente as rurais) sobre os animais de produção. Um aspecto importante desses estudos é a avaliação das convergências e divergências entre os conhecimentos zootécnicos aceitos pela comunidade científica e aqueles manifestados pelas populações humanas envolvidas nos estudos. Trata-se, portanto, de um conceito mais abrangente, quando comparado com "saber zootécnico local" e com "etnologia zootécnica", embora estes dois temas façam parte do escopo da Etnozootecnia. Fontes documentais indicam que o conhecimento local tem sido, historicamente, uma importante fonte de informações para o avanço da ciência formal relativa aos animais (domésticos e silvestres) e seu manejo. É provável também que o conhecimento zootécnico local, patrimônio acumulado ao longo de muitas gerações, e muitas vezes transmitido apenas por comunicação oral, possa contribuir como fonte importante de subsídios para a formulação de estratégias socialmente apropriadas para o manejo e conservação dos recursos genéticos animais.
Ambiência animal e as perdas produtivas no manejo pré-abate: o caso da avicultura de corte brasileira.
Authors: Silva I. J. O. , Vieira F. M. C.
Published: October 2019

A evolução dos estudos sobre a ambiência na avicultura de corte tem alcançado patamares notáveis no que diz respeito às informações sobre a qualidade do ar, o ambiente térmico, acústico e lumínico nas diferentes fases de criação de frangos de corte. No entanto, pouca preocupação é dada à fase entre a retirada do animal da granja e o abate, ou seja, o manejo pré-abate, o que explica a elevada proporção de perdas produtivas nesta etapa. As informações sobre as condições ideais são escassas, principalmente considerando as condições climáticas críticas em regiões tropicais, como é o caso do Brasil. Consequentemente, as perdas por mortalidade pré-abate podem ultrapassar 1% ao longo do ano, resultando em grande prejuízo para todos os segmentos da cadeia avícola. Visando a redução de perdas nas operações pré-abate de frangos de corte, o levantamento de estudos e informações úteis é necessário, para que seja possível a padronização de procedimentos de manejo. O objetivo desta revisão é abordar pontos importantes que possam nortear a redução de perdas no manejo pré-abate da avicultura de corte, no que diz respeito aos fatores que influenciam nas perdas por mortalidade, no transporte de frangos da granja até o abatedouro, na espera no abatedouro e as principais soluções científicas desenvolvidas na ambiência e logística avícola.

Se realizaron los estudios de fiabilidad y viabilidad. Este instrumento permitirá a los investigadores estudiar la heredabilidad de caracteres comportamentales, posibilitando una selección ganadera más objetiva y sistemática. Se construyó la escala de evaluación de la bravura para bovinos de Lidia (EBL-10). Se desarrolló un glosario con las definiciones diferenciales de las diez dimensiones manejadas así como un conjunto de indicadores objetivos para cada dimensión. Se realizó un estudio de validación de la escala aplicándola a una muestra constituida por 380 toros durante la lidia. Previamente, se realizó un estudio de fiabilidad inter-evaluadores en una muestra de 116 hembras durante la tienta. Se dispone de un instrumento viable y fiable para medir el comportamiento relacionado con la bravura en bovinos de lidia, que puede ser útil a investigadores y ganaderos.
Place de l"activite bouchere dans la filière viande rouge algerienne
Authors: Sadoud M.
Published: October 2019

Cette étude vise à étudier l"activité bouchère qui n"a fait jusqu"à présent, l"objet d"aucune étude approfondie en Algérie. Elle nous a amené à nous interroger sur la logique des bouchers assurant l"activité d"abattage ainsi que sur leur mode d"insertion dans les filières viandes bovine et ovine. La méthodologie mise en œuvre s"est basée sur des enquêtes durant deux ans auprès de 36 boucheries. La part moyenne de viande traitée par boucher est de 68,5% pour l"espèce bovine et 31,5% pour l"espèce ovine. Ce sont des unités artisanales de taille petites ou grosses, tendant chacune à une forme de spécialisation adaptée au marché local, reconnue par ses fournisseurs. Les marges dégagées par cette boucherie traditionnelle se trouvent sous l"influence des paramètres qui sont les périodes de grandes consommation (périodes de fête religieuses), ainsi que du niveau d"offre en vif.

Background: The current study aimed to measure and decomposes socioeconomic-related inequalities in DMFT (decayed, missing, and filled teeth) index among adults in Iran. Methods: The study data was drawn from the adult component of Perspective Epidemiological research studies in IrAN (PERSIAN) from 17 centers in 14 different provinces of Iran. DMFT score was used as a measure of oral health among adults in Iran. The relative and generalized (absolute) concentration index (RC and GC, respectively) was used to quantify and decompose socioeconomic-related inequalities in DMFT among Iranian adults (35 years and older). Results: A total of 128813 adults aged 35 and older, who are enrolled in the Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies in IrAN (PERSIAN), were included in the study. The mean score of DMFT of the adults was 6.01 (SD=3.17). The findings suggested that DMFT was mainly concentrated among the poor in the 14 provinces included in the study (RC = -0.064; 95% confidence interval (CI), -0.066 to -0.063 and GC = -0.387; 95% CI, 0.397 to -0.377). In addition, SES, being male, older age and being widow or divorced were identified as the main factors contributing to the concentration of DMFT among the worse-off in Iran. Conclusions: It is recommended to focus in the oral health status of socioeconomically disadvantaged groups in order to reduce socioeconomic-related inequality in oral health among adults in Iran. Moreover, it should be noted that reducing socioeconomic-related inequalities in oral health should be accompanied by appropriate health promotion policies that focus actions on the fundamental socio-economical causes of dental disease.

Published: October 2019

Background Post-craniotomy pain has been reported to be moderate to severe. Management of post-craniotomy pain is often inadequate, yet limited by the side effects of opioids. We aim to find out the efficacy of oral oxycodone as compared to oral codeine for the treatment of post-craniotomy pain in our institution.Methods A randomized, double blinded controlled trial was used to evaluate the efficacy of oral oxycodone versus oral codeine. 40 patients were randomized to the control group of codeine (n = 20) or the experimental group receiving oxycodone (n = 20) in addition to regular oral paracetamol for both groups of patients.Results There was no difference in the visual analogue scale scores at 24 hours (2.78 versus 1.85, p = 0.11) or side effects in the oxycodone group compared with the codeine group.Conclusions Oral oxycodone had similar efficacy as oral codeine in the management of post-craniotomy pain.
Thermal Imaging Detects Early Drought Stress in Turfgrass Utilizing Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems
Authors: Hong Mu , Bremer Dale J. , van der Merwe Deon
Published: October 2019

Core Ideas

Canopy temperature via measurements in turfgrass via drones have not been assessed.

Rises in canopy temperature were detected before visible drought symptoms.

This early detection was similar to top spectral parameters on companion flights.

Canopy temperature was closely correlated with spectral data.

Recent advances in aerial platforms and thermal imaging provide opportunities to improve water management in turfgrass, but research on this topic is limited. Our objectives were to: (i) evaluate the ability of canopy temperature (Tc) imaging from small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) to detect drought stress early in turfgrass; (ii) compare early drought‐stress detection ability of Tc measurements with that of sUAS‐mounted and handheld optical sensors; and (iii) evaluate thermal data's relationship to spectral reflectance from sUAS‐mounted and handheld sensors, soil volumetric water content (VWC), soil temperature, turfgrass visual quality (VQ), and percentage green cover (PGC). The study was conducted during summer 2017 on creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) irrigated with 15 to 100% evapotranspiration (ET) replacements to impose a gradient of drought stress. Airborne spectral reflectance measurements included three bands (near infrared [NIR, 680–780 nm], green and blue bands [overlapped, 400–580 nm]) and eight derived vegetation indices. Results indicated Tc measurements via the sUAS detected rises of Tc in 15 and 30% compared with 100% ET plots, corresponding with declines in VWC, before drought stress became visible. This was comparable to the best spectral parameters on companion flights, and Tc was closely correlated with spectral data from sUAS‐mounted (|r| = 0.52–0.69) and handheld sensors (|r| = 0.75–0.82). Thermal data were more strongly correlated with turfgrass VQ (r = −0.60 to −0.77) and PGC (r = −0.58 to −0.78) than with VWC (r = −0.43 to −0.63) and soil temperature (|r| = 0.27–0.41).
