Résumé :

This study investigated the association between healthy eating behaviors and nutrition literacy in a sample of Bangladeshi adults. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 400 adults from two districts of Bangladesh (Dhaka and Chattogram). Data were generated by in-person interviews using a structured questionnaire. The Nutrition Literacy Scale and National Dietary Guidelines for Bangladesh were used to assess nutrition literacy and healthy eating behaviors, respectively. Multiple linear regression models were used to observe the association. The mean score for healthy eating behavior was 21.8 (SD = 4.8, Range: 5–33) on a scale of 34. A moderate positive correlation was found between nutrition literacy and healthy eating behavior of participants (r = 0.28, p < 0.001). The adjusted regression model showed that a 1 unit increase in nutrition literacy reflected an increase in the healthy eating behavior score of participants by 0.22 units (β = 0.223, p < 0.001). Findings showed an association between nutrition literacy and eating behaviors in Bangladeshi adults. Future research could be carried out to establish a causal relationship that may help inform the necessity of educational interventions for Bangladeshi adults to assist with meeting national nutrition-related targets.

Résumé :

Digital literacy of a woman is still a crucial problem, particularly on the social media. Many articles indicate that a woman as a potential audience target of consumption and contribution of information hoax. The goal of this research is to identifying of the affectivities of woman digital literacy on using digital media primarily on social media. Subject of the research is the Indonesian Army’s wives Association (PERSIT) Skadron 31 PUSPENERBAD Semarang. The method that is used in this case is qualitative method to observing and sharpening of information and analysis among resource discoveries. Result of research indicates that the wives of army mostly using social media in gaining information by using social media of gaining information by the way of accessing it with mobile-phone. Respondents use social media to exchanging information, preserving friendship relation, purchasing and marketing on-line, vacation and self-actualization. Socialization and warning are forwarding routinely during the meeting of the association. Regarding digital literacy it gives positive side and the women understand the negative side as well and its consequences of using digital media which is not appropriate, even the impact is not to those concerned but the family and the institution as well. At the PERSIT organization it is still strongly military hierarchy culture such as reprimand from the superior which gives repentance impact to the members that have been proven of misusing the digital media.

Résumé :

Much of the language at academic conferences is purely metaphorical, so it is important to understand the cultural–historical significance of the metaphors used in constructing organizational gatherings, especially the metaphor invoked by the town hall meeting. Town halls/meetings were spaces where members gathered for democratic rule in a particular geopolitical space that was stolen, settled, and colonized. They often excluded women, indigenous people, and people of color. In using this name, then, Literacy Research Association (LRA) engages in settler colonialism in as far as it is considered townish and aspires to recreate the metaphorical essence of town meetings. However, the historic interconnectedness of LRA, the town hall, and settler colonialism can be upended. In fact, LRA can reimagine the entire concept of the town hall and create new metaphors upon which to base the gatherings. This article departs from the idea of the town hall, and it also departs from the traditional structure of academic papers. Specifically, this article highlights position statements written by five scholars who embody numerous social and individual identities. In each statement, the scholars discuss their ideas for the future of LRA—their concerns and their hopes. Additionally, the article includes symbolic sketches of LRA members to represent the people who are often muted within the organization. Essentially, we, the authors, begin an imagining process as we speculate on what LRA meetings can look like when marginalized voices speak out not only about their questions and concerns but also about their solutions.

Résumé :

The purpose of this review is to assess whether recent scholarship on language-literature instruction—the deliberate integration of language development and literary study at all levels of the foreign language curriculum—within the context of U.S. institutions of higher education reflects shifts in thinking regarding the role of literature in foreign language curricula. These shifts have come in response to the 2007 Report of the Modern Language Association Ad Hoc Committee on Foreign Languages, which recommended replacing the traditional two-tiered program structure with more coherent curricula that merge language and content, and to the general questioning of communicative language teaching as a viable method for language instruction and adequate preparation for advanced-level work in a foreign language. Current approaches to language-literature instruction and foreign language curriculum design favor multimodal language development that places equal importance on oral and written language and interpretative interaction with literature to construct textual meaning and establish form-meaning connections. This review surveys empirical and classroom practice research on literature in language courses and language in literature courses and concludes with a consideration of larger curricular issues and areas for future research.

Résumé :

Abstract Genomic literacy has a significant impact on the successful application and deployment of new practices such as precision medicine. It can be described as the ability to achieve, process, understand, and apply genomic knowledge to health-related decision-making. The aim of this study is to assess the level of genomic literacy, including the knowledge of genetic testing, its outcomes, and its significance among medical trainees and practitioners in Pakistan. This study also offers recommendations for improving genomic literacy within the medical community in Pakistan. A cross-sectional study for which an online questionnaire was designed in the English language using Google Forms. The questionnaire was distributed among trainees and practitioners across Pakistan through online social media platforms. The survey comprised of 36 questions categorized into three sections namely demographics, quantitative questions, and knowledge section. A total of 219 medical professionals (56% trained in medicine while 44% in Dentistry) responded to the survey. Medical practitioners from 27 different cities across Pakistan participated in the survey but with a clear bias towards the city of Peshawar (90%). The majority of the participants (57.5%) were trainee medical officers. Most of the participants in this cohort were aware of genetics, the genome, and PCR technology but 74.9% were not familiar with genetic tests in their specialty. The mean total score for the multiple-choice questions among the participants was 62.5% graduates of medicine (65%) outperforming those in dentistry (59%). Participants were asked about their interest in further learning opportunities about genomics, for which 71% answered in affirmation, however, the remaining were not overly interested. Genomic literacy level can be considered satisfactory at the level of classical genetics, yet there is a clear need for training in molecular biology concepts such as protein synthesis, gene expression, and genome structure within the medical community. With a limited sample size and diversity of respondents, the subject warrants a broader survey to assess genomic literacy which can help in better planning for wider adoption of genomic testing in the medical community. Findings of this survey also highlight the need for assessing medical communities in other low-resource and underprivileged settings to help enhance our understanding and avoid a looming ‘genomics divide’.

Résumé :

The present study addresses the theme of "Literacy and Playfulness" and was developed in response to the need to understand how these concepts are presented in research, since when worked together, they provide tools for the construction of effective pedagogical practices, making the teaching and learning process meaningful and respectful. Therefore, the objective is to understand the existing relationships regarding Literacy and Playfulness in research. In line with the proposed objective, a bibliographic survey was conducted using the Proceedings of the Scientific Meetings of ANPEd (National Association of Graduate Studies and Research in Education), searching for research presented in the Working Groups on Literacy, Reading, and Writing between the years 2012 and 2012. Through access to the complete articles, it was observed that there is a gap between the concepts of Literacy and Playfulness, which are predominantly presented in distinct ways, not demonstrating connections between them and emphasizing the limited interest and lack of knowledge about the potential enhancement of learning when they are addressed together. It is concluded, then, that there is a gap in research regarding the proposed topic, reinforcing the need to demonstrate relevance and understanding that the gap reflects existing deficiencies in the educational area.

Résumé :

Abstract Overview of Proposed Research. Head and neck cancers are a deadly cancer that ranks among the six most common cancers worldwide. (American Cancer Society, 2021). Studies have shown greater disease burden among minority populations for head and neck cancer, higher mortality rates and lower oral cancer knowledge, but limited evidence has defined the underlying causes of late stage diagnoses and access to the healthcare system (Suzuki et al, 2019). More specifically, in comparison to the national rates, South Carolina is among the top ten for head and neck cancers (Community Outreach, Hollings Cancer Center, MUSC, 2019). Dental and primary care play a critical role delivering quality patient education, prevention, risk reduction and treatment regimes. However, there is a paucity of information published on the value of designing and implementing a health literacy program to prioritize head and neck cancer screening and prevention. Rural communities face unique challenges to achieving optimal oral health, impacted mainly by geographic location and socioeconomic status (IOM&NRC, 2011). More specifically, rural southern states such as SC continues to have a tremendous shortage of primary care providers. SC currently has 44 of 46 counties designated as geographic Primary Care and Dental Health Professional Shortage Areas and approximately 25% of SC citizenry are living in rural areas (HRSA, 2018). Because the vast majority of the state has challenges with availability of primary care and dental providers, this potentially exacerbates access to care inequities for rural and underserved minority populations. To enhance the quality and equity of oral cancer prevention in rural SC, it is critical that we prioritize strategies to elevate the significance of head and neck cancer risks. Therefore, the need to design and deliver innovative strategies to increase opportunities that intersect the healthcare system and community is inevitable. In this regard, we propose PULL A-HEAD, Pursuing Leadership in Literacy to Ameliorate HEAd and neck cancer Disparities. PULL A-HEAD is aimed to develop and implement a community-centered approach design for increasing the health literacy and efficacy of navigating the healthcare system for early detection of head and neck cancers. In this presentation we will share outcome and impact results of a community-centered, health literacy program in collaboration with our Regional Medical Library - Region 2 (RML2), National Library of Medicine partners at the Medical University of South Carolina. The program (i.e. PULL A-HEAD) will emphasize the delivery of health literacy education and health systems navigation tools to improve the early detection of head and neck cancers.

Résumé :

Scientists and agricultural trade associations may further conservation outcomes by engaging with one another to uncover opportunities and engage in social learning via knowledge co-production. We observed, documented, and critically reviewed knowledge exchanges among scientists and agricultural stakeholders working on a multidecadal water conflict in Wisconsin. Differences in knowledge exchange and production were related to meeting spaces, organization, time management, and formality of interactions. We found that repetitive, semiformal meetings organized and led by growers facilitated knowledge exchange, co-production, and social learning. However, scientists often appeared uncomfortable in grower-controlled spaces. We suggest that this discomfort results from the widespread adoption of the deficit model of scientific literacy and objectivity as default paradigms, despite decades of research suggesting that scientists cannot view themselves as objective disseminators of knowledge. For example, we found that both scientists and growers produced knowledge for political advocacy but observed less transparency from scientists, who often claimed objectivity in politicized settings. We offer practical methods and recommendations for designing social learning processes as well as highlight the need to better prepare environmental and extension scientists for engaging in agribusiness spaces.

Résumé :

Background: Food literacy is a collection of interrelated knowledge, skills, and behavior required to plan, manage, select, prepare, and eat food for further meeting dietary requirements and determining dietary intake. In Indonesia, 93.6% of all adolescents aged 10 years or over consumed an inadequate amount of fruits and vegetables and more than half often consumed food rich in sugar, fat and salt. Only one-third of students always had breakfast, only 3,81% always brought their own food to school. Adolescence has been considered as a nutritionally critical period of life. Improve the health promotion is important to prevent malnutrition and risk of chronic disease.Objectives: The study aimed to investigate the association of food literacy and dietary patterns among senior high school students in Malang, East Java.Materials and Methods: The cross-sectional study determined food literacy level and dietary patterns among senior high school students using a questionnaire as the instrument. This study recruited 464 students aged from 14 to 18 years old. Demographic characteristics of adolescents and their parents, adolescent food literacy, and dietary intake data were self-report collected. The height was measured using stature meter and weight using electronic scale to determine the BMI-for-age. The research was conducted from July to September 2015 in Malang, East Java.Results: Out of 464 adolescents, 59.9% were females, and female adolescents had a better food literacy (P < .001) and higher dietary pattern scores (P < .05). Adolescents whose family had higher income or higher percentage of income spent on food consumed more vegetables (P < .05) and dairy products (P < .05), and had higher dietary pattern scores (P < .05) compared with those whose family had lower income or lower percentage of income spent on food. The perception of food literacy (r = 0.187, P < .001), the behavior of food literacy (r = 0.333, P < .001), and overall food literacy (r = 0.329, P < .001) were positively correlated with dietary pattern scores.Conclusions: Food literacy is positively associated with dietary patterns in adolescents. Nutrition education is suggested to implement as a guide in healthy food choices for adolescent.

Résumé :

Since the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak compelled many teachers and students globally to shift online, several unexpected circumstances have emerged. This research contextualized a current scenario with teachers and parents working together towards achieving meaningful learning in Nepal. A qualitative case study was employed as a research design to explore how to maintain collaboration and engagement in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning. Two English language teachers were interviewed to ascertain their perceptions about virtual classrooms. Similarly, two parents were interviewed separately. Parents Teacher Association (PTA) meeting was observed to triangulate the data. This study sought to gain insights into the perceptions of the participants and discovered that students' reactions to online classrooms were mixed; some were more motivated, while others demonstrated unsatisfactory concerns. However, good communication and collaboration with students using visual aids, music, and interesting topic talk related to lessons outside the textbook as supplementary teaching material helped teachers engage their students. Also observed was that teachers with digital literacy built better collaboration than the teachers struggling with digital competency.

Résumé :

In everyday life, we always communicate with various kinds of people from various cultural, educational, economic and social backgrounds, this then makes us carry out intercultural communication. This also happened in one of the Student Activity Units (UKM) of Muhammadiyah University of Sidoarjo, namely HIMMPAS (Muhammadiyah Student Association of Sidoarjo Nature Lovers). This study aims to analyze the phenomenology of intercultural communication in the adaptation process of HIMMPAS members at Muhammadiyah University of Sidoarjo. The research method used in this research is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The writing format is in the form of a case study by describing the subject's experiences with the epoch method. Data collection techniques in this study used observation, literacy studies, and interviews. Based on Uncertainty Reduction Theory, assumes that interaction is very important because the purpose of communication is to reduce uncertainty between strangers when meeting and having conversations. This study concludes that intercultural communication occurs among HIMMPAS members when members from Sidoarjo interact with members from outside Sidoarjo as well as between members from outside Sidoarjo and members who also come from outside Sidoarjo.

Résumé :

Abstract Black men hold the highest prostate cancer burden among all ethnicities; thus, there is an urgent need for research to inform the development and implementation of a culturally tailored intervention to reduce disparities and improve outcomes. In response, the Inclusive Cancer Care Research Equity (iCCaRE) Consortium was created to advance health equity and reduce disparities in prostate cancer. Addressing the unique needs of Black men require a genuine bidirectional relationship between scientist and the community. In the Black community, faith-based organizations are respected institutions advocating for health equity and justice. Given their vital role as community health gatekeepers, the iCCaRE Consortium partners with faith-based organizations. Rooted in community engaged research (CER), we conducted an environmental scan through stakeholder meetings to discuss the prevailing challenges and opportunities to meet the needs of the Black community along the prostate cancer care continuum. iCCaRE investigators including Partnership Engagement Services (PES) core partnered with faith-based organizations to ensure and advance community responsive cancer prevention. Together, with our faith-based leaders (N=18), we identified gaps including issues associated with the care continuum from screening to diagnosis and from treatment to survivorship; disparities according to health coverage and social determinants of health, and best practices to assist patients including care coordination, patient navigation, digital innovations, and programs offered by patient advocacy organizations. In response to the needs of the community and the strengths of faith-based organization, we prioritized our initial focus on increasing community prostate cancer literacy and activation using co-design educational infographics for both traditional and technology-based communication platforms. The infographics provided evidence-based facts about prostate cancer burden in the Black community; and using a call to action approach, we emphasized the importance of taking action for life saving screening, prevention and healthy lifestyle. Taking action in prostate cancer symptom recognition, survivorship care, and quality care. Also, co-designed infographics were created for clinical studies and biospecimen awareness and participation and the importance of advocacy and equitable care. Another component incorporated face to face trainings and presentations to enhance their knowledge of cancer screening tools, epidemiology of prostate cancer, and pathways to care. This presentation highlighted the first step towards community based intervention development, implementation and dissemination towards equity and justice for prostate cancer prevention and patient/survivor improvements for Black men.

Résumé :

BackgroundHealth literacy enables the patients in understanding the basic healthcare information and taking informed health decisions; thus, it is a desirable goal of any healthcare system. It increases patients’ adherence to treatment, improves the quality of care and eases the overall burden on the healthcare system. In recent years, technological solutions are being increasingly used in educating patients and achieving better health literacy. Augmented reality (AR) provides powerful, contextual and situated learning experiences and supplements the real world with virtual objects. AR could potentially be an effective learning methodology for the patients, thus, warranting a comprehensive overview of the current state of AR in patient education and health literacy.MethodsThe proposed scoping review will be based on the framework developed by Arksey and O’Malley, including the refinements suggested by Levac et al. A systematic search for references in the published literature will be conducted in nine research databases—Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed, PsycInfo, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and Association for Information Systems eLibrary (AISeL). The unpublished studies from ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, Conference Proceedings Citation Index and grey literature references obtained from a web search will also be included. Databases will be searched from inception to 14 January 2020. Two independent reviewers will screen the studies from the search results in two successive stages of title/abstract screening followed by full-text screening. Data variables will be extracted from the selected studies to characterise study design, type of AR technology employed and the relational factors affecting patient education. Lastly, key stakeholders will be consulted to gather their insights about the study findings.Ethics and disseminationThe results will be disseminated through stakeholder meetings and conference presentations. The data used are from publicly available secondary sources, so this study does not require ethical review.

Résumé :

Abstract BACKGROUND: The WHO defines social determinants of health (SDoH) as “the conditions in which people are born, grow, live and age” which includes factors such as housing and food insecurity, employment, and social support and can account for 30-55% of health outcomes. Addressing unmet SDoH needs may reduce interruptions to cancer care caused by ED visits and hospitalizations (EDH). We aimed to determine feasibility of systematic patient-reported SDoH collection at a large academic cancer center and association of unmet SDoH needs with EDH.METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of SDoH needs among new oncology patient (pt) consults from 5/15-9/21at Dana Farber Cancer Institute (DCFI). Pts completed an intake questionnaire including demographic, disease, as well as SDOH needs on a dichotomous or 5-point Likert scale, specifically health literacy (“how confident are you in filling out medical forms?”), health numeracy (“how confident are you in understanding medical statistics?”), financial distress (“how difficult is it for you, or your family, to meet monthly payments on your/your family’s bills?”) and social isolation (“do you currently live alone?”). We ran bivariate and multivariable models on the association between demographics, SDoH and EDH within 30 days of initial oncology visit using robust generalized estimating equations controlling for clustering by consult provider. RESULTS: 125,997new consults were seen from 05/15-09//21, of which 20,913 completed the intake questionnaire and were alive at 30 days of consult. Of those pts, most were female (60%), aged 40-64 (50%), White (90%), non-Hispanic (84%), primarily English-speaking (9%) and 7% had an EDH within 30 days of their 1st outpatient visit. The most reported SDOH need was limited health numeracy (26%). In bivariate analysis, factors associated with ED visits included: limited English proficiency lung or GU/GYN cancer, living > 25 mi.from DFCI, and limited health literacy and numeracy (all p<0.05). Demographics associated with hospitalizations included: White race and English as primary language (EPL) (both p<0.05). Multivariable analysis showed female gender (OR 1.53, p < 0.01), lung (OR 3.22*) and GU/GYN (OR 2.21*) (p < 0.05 for both) cancer, and living > 25 mi from DFCI (OR 2.50, p < 0.0001) were associated with increased likelihood of ED visit while EPL (OR 1.80, p<0.05) and GU/GYN (OR 1.65, p<0.01*) cancer were associated with increased likelihood of hospitalization.CONCLUSIONS: It is feasible to systematically screen for unmet SDoH which are associated with increased frequency of ED visits. Differences in characteristics associated with ED vs. hospitalization could indicate possible bias or suggest SDoH needs as a reason for avoidance of costly medical care. Further study will expand both the content and site of SDoH data collection, non-English languages used for data collection, and measure impact of resource matching to reduce disruptions to cancer care. *Compared to breast cancer Citation Format: Ashley Odai-Afotey, Ellana Haakenstad, Sunyi Zhang, Bridget A.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Social determinants of health (SDOH) are social barriers that stratify health status. Specifically, socioeconomic status, education level, minority and immigration status correlate with higher risk of onset and severity of chronic disease. We sought to understand how SDOH affect a patient’s belief regarding autonomy over cancer risk and outcomes. Methods: Data from the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center catchment area including Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia Counties in Pennsylvania; Camden and Burlington Counties in New Jersey were queried and analyzed. The survey included six cancer belief statements. Demographic characteristics of survey participants, as well as data related to cancer risk factors and beliefs were all calculated using unweighted data. Results: 1,557 adults responded to this survey. Survey participants ranged in age from 18 to 88 years old, with 49.6% of participants 40 years old and younger. 64% of respondents identified as female vs 36% male. Poverty classification was based on ASPE 2020 Poverty Guidelines given family size and income information. Based on these parameters, 21.3% of respondents were considered impoverished. Additional demographics included housing security, food security, and health literacy. Results demonstrated, impoverished respondents were more likely to disagree that behavior/lifestyle causes cancer (63.3% vs 53.3%, p<0.001). Housing insecure respondents were more likely to disagree that behavior/lifestyle causes cancer (62.8% vs 54.8% p<0.001). Respondents who are more food insecure were more likely to disagree that behavior/lifestyle causes cancer than those who are food secure (food last: 57.9% vs 54.5%, p<0.001). Respondents who are more food insecure were more likely to agree that everything causes cancer (food last: 67.8% vs 59.2%, p<0.001). Discussion: Adverse SDOH such as poverty, food insecurity, housing insecurity, and health literacy affect cancer beliefs. Overall, results demonstrated that respondents with adverse SDOH were more likely to disagree that behavior/lifestyle can cause cancer and more likely to agree that everything causes cancer. Patients with adverse SDOH may be less likely to actively engage in preventive health measures and screenings, clinical trials, and other factors known to positively impact cancer outcomes. SDOH should be evaluated on patient intake and patients should be provided with appropriate support and targeted education with broad cancer beliefs in mind. Citation Format: Alexandria P.

Résumé :

Purpose Community pharmacists need good retrieval skills and competencies for effective use of online information resources for professional practice. This study aims to ascertain the internet literacy skills of community pharmacists in Lagos State, Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach A survey research design was adopted for the study. Convenience sampling technique was used in selecting community pharmacists. Questionnaire was the instrument used for data collection, whereas descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Findings The study revealed that community pharmacists possess requisite internet literacy skills for effective use of online health information resources. There is a positive relationship between informational and operational internet literacy skills [r = 0.820, p(0.000) < 0.05], informational and strategic internet literacy skills [r = 0.838, p(0.000) < 0.05] and operational and strategic internet literacy skills [r = 0.810, p(0.000) < 0.05]. There is a statistically significant gender difference in the level of skillfulness in internet use based on self-reported skills. There is a significant relative contribution of demographic variables (gender, age, educational qualification and number of years in professional practice) to the level of skillfulness in internet use among community pharmacists. Practical implications To improve the use of online internet resources, the Association of Community Pharmacists of Nigeria, Lagos Chapter, should conduct training needs assessment regularly to offer the right levels of internet use skills. They must be proactive and incorporate training on computer and internet skills into their annual conferences and zonal meetings. They should also prepare and give internet use manuals to their members to read and understand how to use the internet more effectively. Community pharmacists, especially the female pharmacists, should also take advantage of free online training sessions called webinars to improve their internet literacy skills to cope with rapid changes in the e-environment, as well as to boost the quality of health-care services delivery. Pharmacists’ Council of Nigeria, the agency responsible for regulating and controlling the education, training and practice of pharmacy, should include an internet literacy skills module in the Mandatory Professional Continuing Education Programme. Originality/value The study investigated the internet literacy skills of community pharmacists in Lagos State and identified the gender gap in level of skillfulness. This study also explored the relationship between level of skillfulness and internet use, as well as the relationship between community pharmacists’ informational, operational and strategic internet literacy skills.

Résumé :

Introduction. Parental involvement in children’s education means engagement and participation of parents in the educational activities of their children. The existing body of empirical research shows that parental involvement can influence academic performance of their children in two distinct ways, i.e. parental involvement in children education at home (helping children in homework and other academic discussions, etc.) and parental involvement in children education at school (participation in school function and meetings, etc.). Active involvement of parents in children’s education may even counterbalance the unfavourable effects of low socioeconomic status and underprivileged neighborhood. The overall effect of parental involvement in child education both at home and at school is a worthy source of improving the academic performance of children through securing higher grades at school.Aim. This research aimed to examine the effects of parental involvement in children education at home on academic performance of secondary schools students and to identify the difference of the effects of parental involvement on students of different gender, parent literacy status and parent importance to children education.Methodology and research methods. Cross sectional and a multistage stratified sampling technique was adopted to portray information from sample of 448 students on Likert scale. Chi square, Kendall’s Tau-c tests and Logistic regression analyses were used to determine the level, direction and strength of association among variables.Results. The results showed that the association of children academic performance was significant and positive when parents helped children with their homework (P = 0.000, Tc = 0.231), discussed school progress with children (P = 0.002, Tc = 0.122) and motivated children to work harder when they make a poor grade (P = 0.015, Tc = 0.133). Moreover, the results highlighted variation in the academic performance of children with respect to their gender, parental literacy status, parental importance to children education and parental involvement in children education at home. It was concluded that boys, children of literate parents, children whose parents give more importance to their education and their parents remain involved in their educational activities at home secured higher grades.Scientific novelty. The present study is distinctive in that it examined variations in children’s academic performance with respect to student gender, parental literacy status, and parental importance to their education in addition to focusing on the relationship between parental involvement in their children education at home and academic performance.Practical significance. The analysis of the research outcomes leads to several interesting results and proposes helpful suggestions for important stakeholders. The main study recommendations that will enable parents to promptly meet the educational demands of their children in order to aid them in getting better grades include awareness-raising campaigns for parents, income creation chances for disadvantaged families, and adult literacy initiatives.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Representation of Black individuals with cancer in biospecimen research remains disproportionately low compared to white counterparts. Clinicians and research staff are responsible for informing, inviting, and consenting patients to participate in such research. We sought to understand clinician and research staff perspectives on engaging Black patients in biospecimen research. Methods: We conducted 10 in-depth interviews with purposively sampled clinicians and research staff at a large academic cancer center in North Carolina between January and August 2022. Participants underwent semi-structured interviews (duration 45-60 minutes) and were asked open ended questions about biospecimen research barriers in general, barriers specific to people who identify as Black or African American, and considerations when discussing biospecimen research with Black patients. Interview transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Perceived patient related barriers to biospecimen donation included pain from sample collection, invasive sample collection, lack of to time or transportation, medical research mistrust, health literacy, and limited knowledge of opportunities for involvement. Many felt that these barriers were faced by both Black and non-Black patients. However, some felt for Black patients, these barriers existed within the context of historical injustices in medicine, current bias in health care and socioeconomic inequities, while others felt socioeconomic status not race was more of a concern. Clinician and research staff identified barriers to discussing biospecimen research included lack of time given busy clinical practice and concern with patients’ physical and emotional state. Patients’ race was not considered a barrier. When asked about considerations for discussing biospecimen research specifically with Black patients, participants felt time to establish rapport and trust, readiness to discuss historical injustices in biomedical research, reminding participants research is voluntary, and having in person discussions were important. Few felt that patient race was not relevant to these discussions. Conclusion: Some clinicians and research staff acknowledge that historical injustices and current racial bias in biomedical research and health care contribute to low representation of Black individuals in biospecimen research, while others did not. Further research is needed to assess whether race and/or racism agnostic approaches versus acknowledgement of structural racism’s influence on biomedical research and health care have an impact on fair representation of Black individuals in biospecimen research.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Despite growing research on financial toxicity (FT) in cancer survivors, few studies have examined cancer survivors’ preferences for FT interventions. Understanding cancer survivors’ preferences for specific intervention components may facilitate the development and implementation of such interventions, potentially reducing the financial burden of cancer treatment. Purpose: The current work is an exploratory study of cancer survivors’ FT intervention component preferences. Methods: Adult survivors (N=105) of colorectal cancer (CRC; n=55) or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL; n=50) from three tertiary care centers self-reported demographic characteristics (gender, race, income, employment status, insurance), clinical characteristics (comorbidities), psychosocial characteristics (PROMIS Global Health scale for mental health, Brief Health Literacy Screen scale, eHealth Literacy Scale), financial impact of cancer (the 11-item comprehensive score for financial toxicity COST scale, and life-altering and care-altering coping strategy scales), and preferences for FT intervention components. Intervention preferences were assessed through survey items on intervention timing and specific content. We employed descriptive statistics to assess overall preferences, and unadjusted linear regression and ANOVAs to identify demographic, clinical, psychosocial and financial predictors of intervention preferences. Results: In terms of timing, 79% of participants favored initiating a FT intervention before treatment compared to during or after treatment. The majority of participants (57%) were interested in at least one FT intervention component. In terms of specific components, participants were most interested in help understanding out-of-pocket costs and insurance (49%), help applying for financial assistance (39%), financial education (32%), and help communicating with the treatment team (32%). Participants were less interested in online tools to manage cancer-related expenses (27%), finance-related stress management (25%), and budgeting (20%). Predictors of overall interest (i.e., number of components endorsed) were: having high FT (B=.413, p=<.001), adopting life-altering coping behaviors (B=.374, p=<.001), using care-altering coping behaviors (B=.241, p=.014), being a non-White survivor (B=.219, p=.024), and having poorer mental health (B=-.280, p=.004). Conclusions: Cancer survivors may prefer FT interventions offered before treatment, and providing guidance on out-of-pocket costs and insurance. FT interventions may be particularly desired by those who experience greater financial toxicity, life and care-altering costs, are a racial/ethnic minority, or have poorer mental health, suggesting potential priority groups and target outcomes for intervention development.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer, and second cause of cancer death in the United States (US). Among US Hispanic/Latino/a/x (H/L) individuals, CRC represents the second and the third most common cancer and the most common cause of cancer death for men and women, respectively. Despite this, the tumor landscape, and key determinants of outcomes in CRC H/L patients are understudied. Methods: To address this need, we launched the ENLACE study, to engage H/L CRC patients in germline and somatic sequencing and identify the optimal approaches for patient participation. Through the Center for Patient Engagement in Cancer Characterization Studies (COPECC) patients were recruited from two healthcare facilities: a safety-net hospital (Los Angeles General Medical Center, LA Gen) and the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center (Norris) a university medical center. Surveys to assess demographics, acculturation, Latino values, health literacy, discrimination, health system distrust, numeracy, and generalized self-efficacy (GSE) were evaluated upon recruitment, and after return-of-results (ROR) for somatic and germline testing. Results: After the first year of the project, a total of 100 H/L CRC patients >18 years of age were included in the ENLACE study, 89 participants completed baseline surveys (49 female, median age 53 (IQR = 16) and 21 completed questionnaires after ROR. A majority self-identified as White (61%), Mexico born (51%), catholic (74%), only spoke Spanish at home (35%) and married (49%). Higher levels of GSE were reported in patients with higher scores for numeracy (p = 0.005) and in males when compared to females (p = 0.016). This association was driven by participants from Norris (n=33) as reported by stratified analyses. In contrast, among participants from LA Gen (n=66) we observed an association with higher median values for the Mexican American acculturation scale and mainstream values and a marginally significant increase in the GSE (p = 0.072 & 0.083, respectively). Additionally, LA Gen participants with a greater than the median score for GSE had a marginally significant higher mean score in the KnowGene scale (p = 0.056) with a reduction in the number of times the “Don’t Know” option was selected (p = 0.045). No statistically significant difference in the generalized self-efficacy score and KnowGene scale were reported after reception of results (p = 0.2386 & 0.1337, respectively) Conclusion: We report differences in GSE and cancer genetic knowledge amongst CRC H/L patients in the ENLACE study that may inform understanding of disparities and social determinants in the populations treated at two different healthcare facilities.

Résumé :

Abstract Commercially available health technologies such as smartphones and smartwatches, activity trackers and eHealth applications, commonly referred to as wearables, are increasingly available and used both in the leisure and healthcare sector for pulse and fitness/activity tracking. The aim of the Position Paper is to identify specific barriers and knowledge gaps for the use of wearables, in particular for heart rate (HR) and activity tracking, in clinical cardiovascular healthcare to support their implementation into clinical care. The widespread use of HR and fitness tracking technologies provides unparalleled opportunities for capturing physiological information from large populations in the community, which has previously only been available in patient populations in the setting of healthcare provision. The availability of low-cost and high-volume physiological data from the community also provides unique challenges. While the number of patients meeting healthcare providers with data from wearables is rapidly growing, there are at present no clinical guidelines on how and when to use data from wearables in primary and secondary prevention. Technical aspects of HR tracking especially during activity need to be further validated. How to analyse, translate, and interpret large datasets of information into clinically applicable recommendations needs further consideration. While the current users of wearable technologies tend to be young, healthy and in the higher sociodemographic strata, wearables could potentially have a greater utility in the elderly and higher-risk population. Wearables may also provide a benefit through increased health awareness, democratization of health data and patient engagement. Use of continuous monitoring may provide opportunities for detection of risk factors and disease development earlier in the causal pathway, which may provide novel applications in both prevention and clinical research. However, wearables may also have potential adverse consequences due to unintended modification of behaviour, uncertain use and interpretation of large physiological data, a possible increase in social inequality due to differential access and technological literacy, challenges with regulatory bodies and privacy issues. In the present position paper, current applications as well as specific barriers and gaps in knowledge are identified and discussed in order to support the implementation of wearable technologies from gadget-ology into clinical cardiology.

Résumé :

Youth violence has become a prominent national concern, largely focused on boys who have perpetrated highly publicized massacres. Less well-publicized is the rapid increase in arrests of girls for violent crimes and weapons violations. In just 2 decades, violent crime arrests for female juveniles increased by 108%. From research findings, a composite portrait of the violent girl can be drawn. This profile can be used to identify girls at risk for criminal behaviors. In this article, a three-pronged approach to girls’ violent behavior is presented: (a) violence prevention and emotional literacy programs that can be implemented by school nurses, (b) parent education programs that can be conducted at Parent–Teacher Association meetings, churches, and community centers, and (c) counseling interventions that can be delivered to troubled girls by psychiatric nurses. Nurses can play vital roles in consultation to teachers and parents and in direct service provision to girls who are on a tragic trajectory of fighting, expulsion from school, and juvenile justice infractions.

Résumé :

The primary objective of this research article is to identify the key impacts of integrating technology into public secondary schools in Makueni County. To achieve this, a descriptive research strategy has been employed, that brought in 140 teachers and 25 principals. Data collection was conducted via interview schedules and questionnaires that were aimed at administrators and teachers. The gathered data underwent quantitative and qualitative analysis. Descriptive statistics and mean calculations, a measure of central tendency, were utilized for data analysis. The research hypothesizes that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a crucial role in enhancing educational quality. ICT enables more personalized instruction and immediate feedback, thereby improving literacy both inside and outside the classroom. The research article also examines how ICT can be used to foster creativity and higher-order thinking skills. In terms of administration, ICT is pivotal in streamlining tasks such as data collection, document processing, record-keeping, and financial document recovery, making retrieval more straightforward and administration more efficient. Furthermore, ICT aids in the efficient scheduling of school activities, including parents and teachers association (PTA) and Board of Management meetings, and managing school calendar events, classes, and exams. In a nutshell, the research article highlights the importance of ICT in disseminating information and fostering effective communication among stakeholders.

Résumé :

Abstract Despite evidence of clear benefit, genetic testing of pediatric oncology patients for germline variants remains rare due to a variety of factors, including insurance/financial barriers, limited knowledge about genetic testing, and competing interests for time and resources. Limited access to genetic testing, pre-test counseling and multidisciplinary care have been shown to disproportionately affect patients with limited resources. This represents a critical unmet need in pediatric oncology. Genetic testing station (GTS) is a pre-test counseling video tool that reviews what genetic testing is, why it might be indicated, and explains potential results. Similar video tools have been successfully used in other settings to increase rates of genetic testing, but there are no published reports on the effectiveness of a video education intervention to increase genetic testing in pediatric oncology patients. To test the effectiveness of GTS on genetic testing knowledge and feelings about genetic testing compared to in-person counseling, we use 5 previously validated tools pre- and post-intervention. The initial surveys measure genetic testing knowledge, decisional conflict, healthy literacy, evaluation of GTS and demographics. If participants complete genetic testing, we use the MICRA to assess the impact on their cancer risk assessment. Our GTS arm is recruited from UCLA Pediatric Sarcoma patients, and the in-person counseling arm is recruited from the UCLA Cancer Predisposition clinic. We have recruited 28 participants in the GTS arm and seven in the in-person counseling arm, of which 10 are patients over 18 years old, two are patients between 12-17 years old, and 23 are parents. In our GTS arm, there are 20 female and eight male participants. A majority identify as white or Latino. For the in-person counseling arm, there are four male and three female participants who identify as white, Middle Eastern, or Latino. A similar percentage score with high health literacy, 68% in the GTS arm and 71% for the in-person counseling arm. The majority of patients have no decisional conflict pre- or post-intervention for the GTS group, while the in-person counseling arm shows high initial decision conflict that is fully resolved with counseling. There is a statistically significant increase in genetic testing knowledge for five out of 10 questions comparing pre- and post-GTS. For GTS participants who have completed genetic testing and the MICRA, there is overall low distress and uncertainty, but higher scores for parents than adult or minor patients. In conclusion, there has been high interest in germline genetic testing in pediatric oncology patients with all families deciding to pursue genetic testing after viewing GTS. GTS is an effective tool in increasing genetic testing knowledge in participants. Therefore, GTS is a promising approach to increase access to genetic testing, while providing adequate pre-test counseling and no decisional conflict.

Résumé :

Abstract Financial toxicity has been associated with adverse outcomes for patients with cancer. Out-of-pocket (OOP) costs contribute to the high financial toxicity (FT) experienced by patients with cancer. Cancer clinical trial (CCT) participants face significant extra OOP expenses presenting a barrier to participation and retention. To address FT in CCTs, the Lazarex Foundation created the Improving Patient Access to Cancer Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Program, a financial reimbursement program (FRP) for OOP travel and lodging costs associated with therapeutic CCT participation. Our study aimed to quantify the FT experienced by patients in CCTs and understand their experience to determine the barriers and facilitators of enrolling in the Lazarex IMPACT Program. Patients enrolled in a CCT were referred to the IMPACT team to determine eligibility. Patients were eligible for IMPACT if they were active on a therapeutic CCT and their household income was less than 700% of the most recent HHS federal poverty guidelines. Patients who enrolled in the program were invited to participate in a brief semi-structured interview via telephone call. We used grounded theory techniques of analysis to identify themes of barriers and facilitators to enrollment in the Lazarex IMPACT program at our cancer center. Table 1 shows the emerging themes from the interviews as barriers and facilitators of enrolling in IMPACT. As a part of the interview process, patients also completed the COST-FACIT questionnaire, a patent reported outcomes measure to evaluate the degree of FT associated with cancer. COST scores in our cohort (n=39) ranged from 14-39.6, mean=27.12, median=27.5; SD=7.96. Following enrollment in the program, patients on average had COST scores indicating low degrees of financial distress. Taken altogether, our results have the potential to inform the development of FRPs for patients with cancer to facilitate their participation in CCTs. Table 1.

Résumé :

Abstract In the developed world, precision medicine and genomics are transforming traditional healthcare approaches. In spite of rapid technological progress being made in genomics, a 'genomic divide' is emerging between developed and developing countries. This is partly because of the limited genomic literacy of healthcare professionals and a scarcity of available genomics workforce that reportedly deters them from proposing genomic testing. We aim to help reduce this 'genomic divide' by proposing a genomic test report design for clinicians in Pakistan, that incorporates user-centered design principles. We tested two commonly used genomic reportswiththat varied in language, content and layout. Report A was a one-page genomic report from the Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, of a patient with suspected hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Report B was a report from FoundationOneCDx, of a breast carcinoma specimen with confirmed findings mentioned. We employed a qualitative descriptive study design, including a survey for trainees, non-specialists, and specialists. The parameters recorded were: subject comprehension, overall visual impression, level of difficulty of the language, and ease of understanding, along with, actionability and degree of trust. A total of 49 medical professionals across 11 institutes in Pakistan participated in the survey, of which 11 were specialists and 38 were non-specialists. We extracted 19 recommendations from the survey and broadly grouped them into three categories: communication style, report content, and layout. About 25% of the respondents commented that they would prefer a short and concise report, 20.8% wanted the language to be ‘doctor-friendly’ and 8.3% preferred data to be presented in tables. All recommendations were incorporated into our proposed genomic test report template. The template displays the results and what they mean for the patient (in layman's terms for ease of access to non-specialists), what possible action is to be taken by the doctor, and details of further information and support regarding the results. We propose the addition of a box on technical methodology at the end of the report template that may help in assisting with refreshing the genomic knowledge of non-specialists. Our findings have shown that in order to design impactful genomic reports for clinicians in Pakistan, we will have to start with a user-centered design approach. This can be instrumental in helping us improve the adoption of genomic testing in clinics around Pakistan. Citation Format: Momal Agha, Faisal Khan.

Résumé :

Abstract Cancer patients who continue to smoke during treatment have poorer outcomes for treatment tolerance and mortality; however, cessation after diagnosis is challenging. Our goal was to build a contextual understanding of the needs of patients and clinical staff in a large urban NCI-designated cancer center to inform strategies for creating smoking cessation services for all patients. During one-on-one interviews with patients (n=13) and clinical stakeholders (n=9), we asked about experiences receiving or providing cessation support during treatment, as well as views on patients’ readiness and needs regarding cessation. Transcribed interviews were coded thematically using Green’s predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing influences on cessation service delivery, uptake by patients, and successful cessation, identifying factors as having positive, negative, or mixed impact on each of these three influences. Patient-identified positive predisposing factors to cessation included cancer diagnosis as a wake-up call, health problems, persistent healthcare providers, and cost of cigarettes. Identified negative predisposing factors were excessive pestering by providers and the futility of quitting with an existing diagnosis. Family, friends, intrinsic motivation, and fear played a mixed role. Patients felt developing other ways to deal with stress, cessation programs, and laws and policies could enable them to quit. Negative enablers included cost and time commitment of cessation programs and busy healthcare providers. The role of medication was uncertain. Reinforcement for quit attempts came via societal disapproval of smoking, encouragement, and positive health effects. Negative reinforcers included addiction, anxiety relief via smoking, and triggers from other smokers. Providers identified similar positive predisposing factors as patients, but also felt that providers could be less predisposed to facilitate cessation due to its physical and psychological burden on patients, “therapeutic nihilism” in the medical community, and patients’ limited health literacy, with differing opinions on the role of cessation services in the cancer treatment process. Enabling barriers included lack of a standardized approach, limited time with patients, lack of training in cessation, and perceived barriers for patients in accessing cessation resources. NCI policies, as well as clinicians’ personal experiences with smoking could reinforce the value of cessation efforts but extra work and lack of follow-up when working with cessation programs, and a lack of readiness to quit in many patients served as negative reinforcement. Findings illustrate unmet needs for patients and providers related to cessation and provision of comprehensive cessation care. Results can inform development of improved cessation programs in cancer centers. Citation Format: Luke M. Shenton, Udara Perera, Amy Leader, Ann Klassen.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Colorectal cancer is the third-most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second-leading cause of cancer death in men and women combined in the United States. With more than a dozen known mutations in colorectal cancer, and growing knowledge about different efficacy of drug options dependent on biomarker status, biomarker testing and results can aid in more effective and lifesaving treatment planning specifically for the unique characteristics of each individual’s tumor. However, biomarker testing in colorectal cancer remains low, and the Colorectal Cancer Alliance aims to increase knowledge and awareness of testing among patients and their care teams. Methods: In 2019, the Alliance conducted an online survey to assess patient, survivor, and caregiver knowledge and understanding of biomarker testing. To further understand identified gaps, the Alliance recruited a diverse set of patients and caregivers at various stages of the colorectal cancer journey for a focus group to explore understanding around biomarkers, treatment pathways, biomarker testing decisions, and gaps around current testing and re-testing processes. Working with a multidisciplinary expert Advisory Committee, the Alliance utilized findings from the survey and focus group to plan a 2021 Summit focused on identifying solutions for known barriers. Results: Summit participants discussed innovative and evidence-based solutions focused on three audiences: patients, caregivers, and cancer care team members, to close some of the gaps identified previously. Patient solutions focused on developing standard resources that explain biomarker testing and results and updating telehealth infrastructure to allow for clear, transparent notes, patient engagement, and shared decision making. Caregiver solutions focused on clearly defining the role of the caregiver and updating telehealth infrastructure to allow for caregiver support in the journey. Cancer care team solutions focused on creating standard health literacy standards, becoming better advocates for biomarker testing, and creating multidisciplinary discussion opportunities between health professionals. Conclusions: It is critical that we put swift solutions in place with efforts to improve resources, shared language, infrastructure, and advocacy to empower cancer care teams, patients and caregivers alike to receive guideline-concordant biomarker testing, make informed treatment decisions accordingly, and understand the choices and discussions at each step. Acknowledgments: The 2021 Colorectal Cancer Biomarker Think Tank was made possible by the support of our sponsors: Founding Sponsor Pfizer, as well as Amgen, Daiichi-Sankyo, Seagen, Merck, and Mirati Therapeutics.

Résumé :

Abstract Introduction: There is a lack of culturally sensitive materials to educate the Hispanic/Latino/a/x (H/L) community on colorectal cancer (CRC), which is the second and third leading cause of cancer deaths among H/L men and women in the United States, respectively. For these reasons, an Educational Tool Kit was created for the Community Genetic Navigation Specialists (CoGENEs) program at the Center for Optimizing Engagement of Hispanic Colorectal Cancer Patients in Cancer Genomic Characterization Studies (COPECC) at the University of Southern California (USC). CoGENES is a train the trainer program geared towards the development of a local workforce of trained community engagement specialists, promotores de salud (community health workers) that will act as liaison agents to increase knowledge and create community awareness on genetic research, clinical genetic testing, counseling, biospecimen donation and participation in clinical trials for H/Ls CRC patients, and community at large. Methods: The Tool Kit consisted of a newly developed educational handbook focused on CRC prevention, genetics, counseling, tumor testing, and patient navigation, as well as existing materials with resources for CRC and counseling. To test the handbook, five focus groups in Spanish/English were conducted with 44 participants, recruited via community agencies/clinics serving Los Angeles. Optimization probes focused on readability, knowledge, acceptability, barriers, and recommended changes. Content analysis was conducted with focus group transcripts to inform how to optimize the handbook. A Materials Review Optimization Scorecard was developed to evaluate materials on content, literacy, graphics, layout and typography, learning, stimulation and motivation, and cultural and language appropriateness. Fifteen pieces in the handbook were each rated by three community health workers. A final suitability score was calculated for each piece. Results: Overall, the materials were well received, and participants understood the overall main message of the materials. Feedback included refining terminology, providing additional headings and subtitles, and clarifying images to optimize the illustration of mutations. Final suitability scores from community health educators ranged from 80 to 99% for all materials, translating into “superior materials.” Conclusion: Overall materials were well received, and they were rated as “superior materials.” Participants’ feedback from CoGENES is shared with the Engagement Optimization Unit (EOU) and Patient Engagement Unit (PEU) to optimize ongoing education and research at COPECC. The MR-OS tool will be shared with other PEU’s at other center’s to encourage it use when developing educational materials. Citation Format: Yaneth L.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among men diagnosed with prostate cancer. We evaluated the extent to which men with prostate cancer develop CVD accounting for potential factors that may contribute to the CVD burden in this population. Methods: We prospectively followed men diagnosed with prostate cancer and free from CVD (stroke and coronary heart disease, including myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft, and percutaneous coronary intervention) before their cancer diagnosis in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study, between 1986 and 2016. Men were categorized by D’Amico prostate cancer risk groups as low-risk (stage T1-2a, Gleason score ≤6, and PSA at diagnosis ≤10 ng/mL), intermediate-risk (T2b and/or Gleason score 7 and/or PSA >10-20), or high-risk (≥T2c/N1/M1 or Gleason score 8-10 or PSA >20). Incident fatal and non-fatal CVD, defined as coronary heart disease and stroke after cancer diagnosis, were centrally adjudicated. CVD risk factors including smoking, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, body mass index, were self-reported on biennial questionnaires. Deaths due to prostate cancer or other causes were treated as competing events when estimating cumulative incidence and cause-specific hazard ratios (HR). Results: Among 5,707 prostate cancer patients, 1,912 had low-risk, 2,261 had intermediate-risk, and 1,534 had high-risk cancer. 1,102 CVD events were documented over up to 30 years of follow-up after cancer diagnosis. The 10-year CVD risk was 8.1% for men with low-risk cancer, 8.8% for intermediate-risk, and 10.4% for high-risk cancer. The cause-specific HRs for CVD were 1.18 (95% CI 1.03, 1.36) in intermediate-risk and 1.59 (95% CI 1.36, 1.85) in high-risk prostate cancer, both compared to low-risk prostate cancer. Men with high-risk cancer tended to be older; after age adjustment, the HRs were 1.15 for intermediate-risk (95% CI 1.00, 1.33) and 1.35 for high-risk cancer (1.35, 95% CI 1.16, 1.58). Associations between cancer risk group and CVD were essentially unchanged after further adjustment for CVD risk factors present at cancer diagnosis, primary cancer treatment modality (surgery, radiation, androgen deprivation therapy, watchful waiting/active surveillance), and calendar year of diagnosis. Discussion: Despite the elevated risk of cancer mortality in men with intermediate-risk and high-risk prostate cancer compared to low-risk prostate cancer, CVD risk remains at least as common over time among these men as among men with low-risk prostate cancer. Incident CVD risk after cancer diagnosis among men with more aggressive cancers, which particularly occur in older men, is not primarily attributable to differences in pre-existing risk factor burden. These findings from a cohort with healthcare access and literacy indicate a need for continued clinical attention to CVD after cancer diagnosis. Citation Format: Caroline Himbert, Anna Plym, Jane B.

Résumé :

Background/Context As accountability pressures have mounted toward ever-higher targets under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, low-achieving schools have sought new tools for raising achievement. The association between parent involvement and student achievement is well established, though the association is an indirect relationship mediated by other variables. Schools have sponsored a variety of parent education programs attempting to influence achievement; evidence on their results is mixed. Among the most popular efforts at the elementary school level are family literacy programs, which generally take an intervention-preventive approach that aims to supplant home literacy practices with school-based norms and practices. The Families Promoting Success (FPS) program was an intervention that trained parents in reading skills to improve student test scores in schools that had not met targets under NCLB. This series of workshops was unusual for specifically targeting families of low-scoring students and for focusing on tested word analysis skills. One of the few empirical examinations of the intersection of parent involvement and NCLB, this study shows how parent programs mirror broader forces in urban schooling and how the high-stakes climate affects home-school relations. Purpose/Focus The purpose of this study was to investigate what happens when low-performing urban schools bring high-stakes accountability pressures to parent programs, to shed light on possible new directions in family engagement. How do educators and immigrant parents make meaning of a parent education program geared to accountability goals? The study examined processes, interactions, and meanings related to FPS's design, implementation, and perceived outcomes for families and educators and considered alternative approaches to parent engagement suggested by the findings. Research Design This multiple case study used mainly qualitative methods to examine the FPS program at four low-performing Los Angeles elementary schools with predominantly low-income, Latino, English learner populations and immigrant parents. Data sources included staff interviews, bilingual parent focus groups, and extensive observations of program workshops and planning meetings, supplemented by a parent questionnaire and document review. This study was part of a larger investigation that examined the program's influence on student achievement. Conclusions/Recommendations Findings suggest that staff designed a narrow, test-driven parent curriculum to address accountability pressures without considering parents’ needs or concerns. The program represented an intensification in parent education that parallels the intensification in student instruction under accountability-driven reform. Though the program was well-intended and made parents more aware of testing and reading skills, related research showed that the program did not influence student achievement. Instead, parents and staff described various benefits on intangible aspects of family and school-family relationships. These unintended consequences suggest the pitfalls of imposing high-stakes pressures, school agendas, and interventionist approaches on parents, as well as the promise of finding common ground and the need for relationship building with marginalized families.

Résumé :

Abstract Introduction: Tumor tissue-based cancer research is essential to translate scientific discoveries to improve treatments for cancer. Tissue donation programs require a partnership: patients donating tissue and researchers using tissue for translational research. Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center (LCCC) has established a program called Patients and Researchers Together (PART) to value and increase the number of patients who agree to donate tissue for research. The PART Program is a patient-centered partnership between patients, community members, oncologists, surgeons, researchers, as well as staff and faculty from the clinical trials office, tissue procurement facility and UNC health communications to increase tissue donations for cancer research by valuing the patient’s contribution. Methods: The PART program began in 2021 by convening a group of diverse partners with a common goal of valuing patients as partners in biospecimen research. Creating an environment of bidirectional communication and exchange of ideas to 1) inform patients about the benefits of donating tissue for research, 2) inform the public about the importance of tissue to help researchers learn more about cancer, and 3) ensure researchers at UNC have access to tissue for their research. In the initial phase, the PART team evaluated the tissue research needs at LCCC by conducting surveys, interviews and focus groups with key partners. This set the foundation for the focus of current activities. One of the key focus areas is to communicate to patients and the public about the value of using tissue in research. The PART program established a working group to develop patient materials. The working group developed a template for educational materials, study summaries and a rigorous review process. The development of materials and iterative review process includes content experts, health literacy experts, patients and community members, and communications experts. Results: The PART working group developed a series of educational materials about tissue donation for research. Understanding the importance of donating tissue for research is the first step in engaging with patients. The team developed a template and a multi-step process to review documents. PART used this information to develop a website to promote tissue donation for research to the public. The team has been developing summaries of studies focused on tissue donation. We developed or consulted on 2 general education flyers and 8 study summaries in a variety of cancer types. There is a continuous queue of studies in progress and plans to develop more general education materials. PART patients and community members are leading the effort to educate patients and the public about tissue use in research. LCCC values patients who donate their tissue to research to improve the lives of all cancer patients. Citation Format: Patricia A. Spears, Missy Van Lokeren, Vernal Branch, Jennifer A.

Résumé :

Abstract Background: Adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET) reduces breast cancer recurrence, but racial differences in nonadherence remains a concern. Differential symptom burden may contribute to disparities in AET adherence. Method: We conducted a post hoc analysis by race among women with breast cancer starting AET who were randomized in THRIVE Study (NCT03592771) to investigate remote symptom monitoring intervention vs. usual care from 11/2018 to 06/2021. Participants completed surveys at baseline, 6- and 12-month. Outcomes were symptom burden measured by FACT-Endocrine Subscale, and adherence measured by electronically monitored pillbox (>80% Proportion of Days Covered). We estimated symptom differences by race using linear regression with and without adjusting for baseline characteristics. To examine whether symptom burden contributed to racial differences in adherence, we conducted multivariable regression for adherence with and without controlling for symptom burden, and Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition. Results: Among 102 (34%) Black and 194 (66%) White women who were randomized, retention was 88% at 12-month. Compared to White participants, Black participants were younger (55 vs. 60 years), more likely to be at poverty (10.8% vs. 4.1%), and had lower health literacy (18.9% vs. 13.4%; p-values<.01). While symptom burden did not differ by study arm, Black participants had worse symptoms than White at baseline (60.8 vs. 64.5, p=.002). This gap became smaller at 6-month (59.7 vs. 61.2, p=.30), but diverged again at 12-month (56.9 vs. 61.8, p<0.01). Differences at 12-month diminished after controlling for baseline characteristics (-1.6, 95%CI=-4.4 to 1.2). Notably, being at poverty and younger age were associated with higher symptoms. Adherence was lower among Black participants at 6-month (0.69 vs. 0.78, p=.13) and 12-month (0.44 vs. 0.60, p=.014) than White participants. Unadjusted differences in adherence at 12-month (-16.0 percentage points [ppts], 95%CI=-28.9 to -3.3, p=.01) attenuated after adjusting for baseline symptoms, symptom changes to 12-month, and other baseline characteristics (-10.4 ppts, 95%CI=-25.6 to 4.8, p=.18). Lower baseline symptoms were associated with better adherence (0.8 ppts, 95%CI=0.1 to 1.4, p=.03). Decomposition indicates that 9.1 ppts (95%CI=-4.8 to 23.0, 57%) of the difference in 12-month adherence was explained by symptoms and baseline characteristics, and remaining unexplained difference was 6.9 ppts (95%CI=-12.6 to 26.4, 43%). Conclusion: Our results add to increasing evidence that Black women with breast cancer have lower AET adherence, which may be partially attributed to worse symptoms than White women. These results highlight the need for new strategies to promote equitable symptom management and adherence strategies between Black and White women to reduce disparities in outcomes.

Résumé :

Loving the environment is a character that must be instilled in children from an early age. This study aims to describe how efforts to instil love for the environment in preschool. This research uses a collaboration action research method with the intervention of providing information and motivation about the importance of environmental education for ECE educators. The participants were the ECE community represented by eleven ECE teachers in the Tangerang, Sawangan Bogor, Medan, and Batam areas. Data collection was carried out by focus group discussions and interviews as well as the delivery of information related to learning and environmental literacy for children through online meetings. Content analysis was used to interpret the data in this study. The findings of this study indicate that the provision of information and motivation to eleven ECE teachers can make the eleven teachers form the spirit and knowledge of teachers to develop learning and teaching environmental literacy in early childhood classes. The teachers are also trying to green the school environment by planting trees and making various learning activities with the children to get to know and love the environment better.

Résumé :

e4139111This article features schools and school districts with successful induction programs, all easily replicable. Increasingly, research confirms that teacher and teaching quality are the most powerful predictors of student success. In short, principals ensure higher student achievement by assuring better teaching. To do this, effective administrators have a new teacher induction program available for all newly hired teachers, which then seamlessly becomes part of the lifelong, sustained professional development program for the district or school. What keeps a good teacher are structured, sustained, intensive professional development programs that allow new teachers to observe others, to be observed by others, and to be part of networks or study groups where all teachers share together, grow together, and learn to respect each other’s work.ResumoEste artigo apresenta escolas e distritos escolares com programas bem sucedidos de indução, todos facilmente replicáveis. Cada vez mais, a pesquisa confirma que o professor e a qualidade do ensino são os mais poderosos preditores do sucesso do aluno. Em suma, os diretores garantem maior desempenho dos alunos, garantindo melhor ensino. Para fazer isso, os administradores eficazes têm um novo programa de indução de professores disponível para todos os professores recém-contratados, que então se torna parte do programa de desenvolvimento profissional sustentado ao longo da vida para o distrito ou escola. O que mantém um bom professor são programas estruturados, constantes e intensivos de desenvolvimento profissional que permitem que os novos professores observem outros, sejam observados por outros e façam parte de redes ou grupos de estudo onde todos os professores compartilham juntos, crescem juntos e aprendem a respeitar o trabalho um do outro.Tradução do original WONG, Harry K. “Induction Programs That Keep New Teachers Teaching and Improving”.

Résumé :

Abstract Introduction: Adolescents and young adults (AYAs), particularly those 19-34, are the most highly uninsured age group in the United States. AYAs lacking any insurance or having public health insurance have been consistently found to have worse survival after a cancer diagnosis than those with private insurance, highlighting the need to better understand survival disparities and improve outcomes in this population. We examined the association of health insurance with stage at diagnosis, cancer treatment, location of cancer care, healthcare utilization, and chronic medical conditions/late effects (e.g., cardiovascular, respiratory, and endocrine diseases) and survival. Methods: We included data on AYAs diagnosed with common cancers between the ages of 15-39 in the United States. We used complementary data sources to understand outcomes including cancer registries, electronic health records, surveys (e.g., AYA Health Outcomes and Patient Experience Study (HOPE)), and linkages to healthcare enrollment and utilization databases. Data from the California Cancer Registry (CCR) provided information on stage at diagnosis, location of cancer care, and selected Commission on Cancer (CoC) quality of care measures. CCR-Medicaid linked datasets identified the timing of insurance enrollment and CCR California Department of Healthcare Access and Information (-HCAI) linked dataset provided information on hospitalization and emergency department diagnoses and procedures. Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) identified health care utilization and medical expenditures among AYAs with chronic medical conditions/late effects. Results: Prior to the full implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), 50% of AYAs with Medicaid insurance received this insurance at cancer diagnosis or were discontinuously enrolled just prior to or after cancer diagnosis. AYAs enrolled in Medicaid were more likely to be diagnosed at a later cancer stage than AYAs with private health insurance. The duration and continuity of Medicaid enrollment influenced these associations, with AYAs who enrolled at diagnosis more than 2.0 times, AYAs intermittently enrolled 1.7 to 1.9 times, and AYAs continuously enrolled 1.4-1.5 times more likely to have later stage disease than those with private insurance. Clinical trial enrollment, which is associated with receiving appropriate initial treatment in the AYA HOPE study, was lower among AYAs who were uninsured versus privately insured in 2006, but doubled in 2012/2013, such that there were no longer differences in clinical trial enrollment by health insurance type. In AYAs diagnosed with breast and colon cancer in 2014-2021, those with Medicaid insurance were less likely to meet CoC quality of care measures on chemotherapy and radiation administration, including radiation administered following breast conserving surgery within 1 year of breast cancer diagnosis (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 0.63; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.52-0.76) and adjuvant chemotherapy administered within 4 months of diagnosis for stage III colon cancer OR: 0.52; CI 0.36-0.74). Among AYAs with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, those who were publicly insured were less likely in New York and Texas and more likely in California to receive care at a specialized cancer center, which was associated with better survival outcomes. Within an integrated healthcare setting, among 2-5-year AYA cancer survivors, healthcare utilization varied by health insurance source. Specifically, AYAs with public insurance were less more likely in any year to have no oncology or primary care visits and to utilize the emergency department. Data from multiple sources have identified that AYA cancer survivors with late effects were more likely to be publicly insured, with MEPS data identifying that AYAs with late effects had substantially greater medical expenses, prescription medications and healthcare utilization. Finally, in an analysis of CCR-Medicaid, we found AYAs with Medicaid insurance experience worse cancer-specific survival compared with those with private/military insurance. Conclusion: Continuous medical insurance is important for AYA cancer survivors to maintain regular contact with the healthcare system, particularly for preventive care, early cancer detection, timely treatment, and appropriate survivorship care. While the ACA significantly reduced the proportion of uninsured AYAs, a substantial portion of working-age adults remain underinsured, experiencing gaps in coverage or high out-of-pocket costs, that results in not getting needed health care due to cost. Those lacking health insurance or experiencing gaps in coverage are disproportionately poor, young, and living with a chronic health problem. Not being able to afford plan premiums and cost-sharing requirements or loss of Medicaid eligibility are among the most cited reasons for lacking insurance or experiencing coverage gaps. This can lead to significant financial burden in the AYA population that then exacerbates insurance related access barriers to appropriate treatment and survivorship care. This underscores the need for policies to improve the continuity and quality of insurance options. In addition, given the complexity of insurance coverage, educational interventions to increase health insurance literacy among AYA cancer survivors may increase their ability to successfully navigate health systems, use their insurance to the fullest, and avoid unnecessary out-of-pocket costs. Our data also emphasize the need for policies to enhance access to specialized cancer care for AYAs overall and with Medicaid insurance, such as the California Cancer Care Equity Act, which enables Medicaid enrollees diagnosed with a complex cancer to request a referral to specialty cancer hospitals where emerging and effective cancer therapies and clinical trials are available.

Résumé :

On September 4 – 6, 1984, Moscow hosted the first round-table meeting of British and Soviet writers, which was substantiated by the emergent thawing in foreign policy relations between the countries. The goal of this article is to examine the process of organizing and hosting the writers’ conference, as well as give assessment to its contribution to the development of Anglo-Soviet cultural cooperation during the Cold War. The research methodology is founded on the concept of cultural diplomacy, as well as the principle of historicism and systematicity, which allowed analyzing the available archival materials, publications, and reminiscences of the participants. Having examined the Great Britain-U.S.S.R. Association, the author gives special attention to the perception of this event by the British side. The article traces the transformation of attitude of the British authors towards their Soviet colleagues and the Soviet literary process overall. The round table participants expressed different opinion on the role of the writer and the degree of their social responsibility, as well as on moralization in the novel. In the course of discussion, the Soviet side often turned to the topic of peacekeeping, while the British side defended the autonomy of the writer and the right to social criticism. The conclusion is made that despite the divergence of opinions, both British and Soviet writers found the discussion productive,  and positively assessed the results of the conference. Thanks to the efforts of organizers and the objective “tiredness” from using cultural events for propaganda purposes, the first British-Soviet Round Table of Writers has fulfilled its mission, becoming an important platform for intercommunication.

Résumé :

Literacy centers are widely used by teachers seen as being effective in promoting literacy (Pressley, Rankin, & Yokoi, 2000); yet little research has been completed on how or why they are effective. Based on the social cultural constructivist theory posited by Vygotsky (1978), and research theories of Dyson (1993), the peer dialogue at the intersection of the unofficial social world of children and the official school world were analyzed to determine how peer dialogue supported literacy learning. Finding indicated that 47 of the 79 first-grade indicators from the Ohio Academic Content Standards for English Language Arts were utilized and strengthened through peer dialogue. This research can add to classroom practice as teachers see the impact of peer dialogue at literacy centers in supporting both literacy skills and literate behaviors.

Résumé :

The article considers the visual image of the Madrasah in miniatures of Arabic manuscripts of the 13th century as both scientific and theological treatises, and literary works. Illustrated Arabic manuscripts are relatively rare, but they exist, and constitute one of the most fascinating, but little-studied pages in the history of the spiritual and artistic culture of the Arab Middle Ages. Amongst the hard-to-solve riddles there are some colorful pictures in the frontispiece design or in the text of a manuscript, which can raise the question: what is depicted here? The inscriptions on the margins of a page or inside the miniatures, added as explanations by the later owners, do not always provide the correct answer, since from one era to another the concepts and representations change significantly. In the life of Medieval Muslim society, the Arabic word “madrasah” could mean both a general education school and a theological university, where scientists study the works of their predecessors, conduct scientific research, make new discoveries, and defend their theories. In all cases, madrasahs remain religious institutions and buildings, second in importance after the Mosque. However, unlike a Mosque, with a niche of a mihrab or a ladder of a minbar, the image of a Madrasah is difficult to distinguish from buildings such as a dwelling house, a caravanserai, a Sufi abode or a courtroom. In miniatures of medieval Arabic manuscripts, the image of a Madrasah can also arise by association with portrayals of sages and their listeners, scientists and their students, authors who write their works, or scribes who rewrite them. The architectural image of the Madrasah can be created both by a detailed illustration of its interior, and by the conditional “architectural” decoration of a scene of a lesson at school or meeting of scientists.
