ABSTRACT

The Food Intake Recording Software System, version 4 (firsst4), is a web-based 24-h dietary recall (24 hdr) self-administered by children based on the Automated Self-Administered 24-h recall (ASA24) (a self-administered 24 hdr for adults). The food choices in firsst4 are abbreviated to include only those reported by children in US national surveys; and detailed food probe questions are simplified to exclude those that children could not be expected to answer (e.g. questions regarding food preparation and added fats). ASA24 and firsst4 incorporate 10 000+ food images, with up to eight images per food, to assist in portion size estimation. We review the formative research conducted during the development of firsst4. When completed, firsst4 will be hosted and maintained for investigator use on the National Cancer Institute's ASA24 website.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Current guidelines mandate treatment of primary cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) through to completion, including the demonstration of a margin of normal tissue, with surgical excision as the treatment of choice. Histologically incomplete excisions of all cutaneous SCC are preferably treated by surgical re-excision. The yield of performing further resection of scar tissue in patients with incompletely excised SCCs has not been previously evaluated. METHODS: A retrospective audit was conducted of 676 consecutive patients with surgically managed SCCs treated in our unit during 2005-2006. RESULTS: One hundred and nineteen (17.6%) tumours were incompletely excised, of which 84 underwent further excision. Routine histological examination revealed residual SCC in 24 (28.6%) of these specimens. Logistic regression analysis revealed tumour diameter and Breslow thickness to contribute independently to residual SCC (P<0.001). A lengthier delay between initial excision and re-excision predicted less residual tumour (P<0.005). Although the positive re-excision group tended towards a higher mean age (79+/-9 vs 74+/-12), with more head and neck lesions (79 vs 66%), logistic regression revealed no independent influence of age, gender, histological grade or anatomical site of the original lesion. CONCLUSION: In our series, 28.6% of incompletely excised primary cutaneous SCCs showed residual tumour in re-excision specimens. Factors associated with residual tumour were similar to characteristics of high risk SCCs; larger lesions in particular are more likely to result in residual SCC at re-excision and may benefit from greater excision margins at the time of original resection. It is possible that regression of remaining tumour cells may contribute to our time-dependent findings and this warrants further research.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Investigators have reported that the availability of foods in local grocery stores correlated with consumption when using large geopolitical units of analysis, e.g., zip codes. Associations across smaller geopolitical units, e.g., census tracts, have not been tested, nor has this work focused on restaurant availability, child consumption, or specific ethnic groups. METHODS: This study examined whether median family income and fruit, juice, and vegetable (FJV) availability in grocery stores, restaurants, and homes in 11 census tracts correlated with FJV consumption among 11- to 14-year-old African-American Boy Scouts. FJV consumption was measured in 90 scouts using two 24-h food recalls. Instruments were developed to measure the availability of FJV at area grocery stores, restaurants, and homes where troop members resided. RESULTS: Median household income (from 1990 census) was significantly correlated with restaurant fruit availability. Significant correlations were found between restaurant juice and vegetable availability and Boy Scout reported consumption of juice and vegetables. CONCLUSION: Census tract may be a useful unit when studying restaurant, but not grocery store, FJV availability. Within a census tract, restaurant FJV availability may be a significant target for community intervention and process evaluation.

ABSTRACT

Family, peers and other environmental factors are likely to influence children's dietary behavior but few measures of these phenomena exist. Questionnaires to measure family and peer influences on children's fruit, juice and vegetable (FJV) consumption were developed and pilot tested with an ethnically diverse group of Grade 4-6 children. Principal components analyses revealed subscales with acceptable internal consistencies that measured parent and peer FJV modeling, normative beliefs, normative expectations, perceived peer FJV norms, supportive and permissive parenting practices, food rules, permissive eating, and child food preparation. Internal consistencies were adequate to high, but test-re-test correlations often were low. Children also completed questionnaires on FJV availability and accessibility in the home, and food records for 2 days in the classroom. Parental modeling, peer normative beliefs and FV availability were significantly correlated with FJV consumption. Further research with these scales is warranted.

ABSTRACT

Recent reviews have noted that behavioral theory-based nutrition education programs are more successful at achieving food behavior change than knowledge-based programs and that a clear understanding of the mechanisms of behavior change procedures enable dietetics professionals to more effectively promote change. Successful dietary behavior change programs target 1 or more of the personal, behavioral, or environmental factors that influence the behavior of interest and apply theory-based strategies to influence or change those factors. Goal setting is a strategy that is frequently used to help people change. A 4-step goal-setting process has been identified: recognizing a need for change; establishing a goal; adopting a goal-directed activity and self-monitoring it; and self-rewarding goal attainment. The applications of goal setting in dietary interventions for adults and children are reviewed here. Because interventions using goal setting appear to promote dietary change, dietitians should consider incorporating the goal-setting strategies to enhance the behavior change process in nutrition education programs.

ABSTRACT

Obesity among children has reached epidemic proportions. Today, an estimated one in four children in the United States is overweight. while 11% arc obese. Children who are overweight tend to remain so up to 20 years of age; in general, they have a 1.5- to twofold higher risk for becoming overweight as adults. The prevalence of overweight has increased approximately twofold in the 20-year period from 1974 to 1994, with the largest increases observed among 19- to 24-year-olds. The annual increases in weight and obesity that occurred from 1983 to 1994 were 50% higher than those from 1973 to 1982. Overweight youth are 2.4 times as likely to have a high serum total cholesterol level, and 43.5 times as likely to have three cardiovascular risk factors. Although the total energy intake of children has remained the same, and the macronutrient density of the diet has changed, the percentage of energy from fat has decreased, while that from carbohydrates and protein has increased. Children have been consuming lower amounts of fats/oils, vegetables/soups, breads/grains, mixed meats, desserts, candy, and eggs. and increasing amounts of fruits/fruit juices, beverages. poultry, snacks, condiments, and cheese. Changes in specific eating patterns may explain the increase in adiposity among children; e.g., increases have occurred in the number of meals eaten at restaurants, food availability, portion sizes, snacking and meal-skipping. Successful prevention and treatment of obesity in childhood could reduce the adult incidence of cardiovascular disease. Because substantial weight loss is difficult to maintain, the prevention of obesity by promoting healthier lifestyles should be one of our highest priorities in the new millennium.

ABSTRACT

Children's fruit, juice and vegetable (FJV) and fat intakes do not meet recommended guidelines. Since personal factors account for only a small percentage of the variability in children's FJV consumption, social and environmental influences were explored via focus group discussions with Grade 4-6 African-, Euro- and Mexican-American students and parents. Questions included the effects of social influences, availability and accessibility on children's FJV and low-fat food choices. Few ethnic differences were noted. A variety of low-fat items and fresh FJV (not cut-up) were available at home; older children were expected to prepare their own. Eating out occurred at least twice a week; FJV were not usual restaurant choices. Students reported some modeling by parents (more mothers) and friends (usually at lunch). Negative peer responses for eating vegetables were reported. Parents were concerned with children eating too much junk food and not enough FJV, recognized the outside influences their children received about food, and reported several methods to encourage children to eat FJV. Recommendations for future interventions are proposed.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To compare lunch fruit, juice, and vegetable (FJV) intake of fourth-grade students who receive only National School Lunch Program meals and fifth-grade students who also have access to a school snack bar and to compare FJV intake by meal source among fifth-grade students. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study: students completed FJV preference questionnaires and 5 days of lunch food records in classrooms. SUBJECTS/SETTING: 312 fourth- and 282 fifth-grade students in south Texas. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mean FJV consumption. STATISTICAL ANALYSES PERFORMED: Descriptive statistics, correlation analyses, analysis of variance, analysis of covariance. RESULTS: Fourth-grade students (n = 312) consumed significantly more fruits, juices, and vegetables (0.80 serving) than fifth-grade students (n = 282) (0.60 serving). Students whose parents reported a high school education or less consumed more regular and total vegetables than students whose parents reported some college or higher education. There were no interaction effects among gender, grade, ethnic, or family education groups. Fifth-grade students who ate only snack bar meals consumed significantly less total fruits, juices, and vegetables (0.40 serving) than fifth-grade students who ate school lunch meals (0.82 serving). Controlling for FJV preferences did not change the main effect for grade level in the FJV consumption models. APPLICATIONS/CONCLUSIONS: FJV consumption during school lunch is low. School foodservice staff should identify FJV items that middle school students prefer and increase availability of those items in middle school cafeterias and snack bars.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Compare the validity and reliability of a one-week fruit, juice and vegetable (FJV) food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) that does not require averaging in response categories and one-week food recognition form (FRF) against three to four 24-hour dietary recalls (24hdr) among mostly African-American boys and 17 to 20 year-old adults for possible use in subsequent intervention studies. DESIGN: In Study One, the FFQ was administered to 40 boys in four Boy Scout (BS) troops on two occasions separated by two weeks. The FRF was administered to 36 boys in four other BS troops after school on six school days, covering seven consecutive days. All these boys completed four 24hdr, including one Sunday. In Study Two, 56 17 to 20 year-old adults completed the FFQ during telephone interviews on two occasions two weeks apart. In between, they completed three 24hdr by telephone interview on one weekend and two weekdays. SUBJECTS/SETTING: Participants in Study One were members of eight urban BS troops, and in Study Two were high school (HS) seniors and recent HS graduates. BS data were collected at times scheduled for troop meetings or immediately after school. The young adult group completed telephone interviews in the evenings and on weekends. MAIN MEASURES: This research compared a FJV FFQ and a FJV FRF (incorporating the same 24 foods) against three to four 24hdr conducted using NDS software from the University of Minnesota. STATISTICAL ANALYSES PERFORMED: Descriptive statistics, intraclass correlations, Spearman correlations, corrections for attenuation. RESULTS: The first FFQ provided substantially higher mean consumption estimates for both groups. The FFQ had moderate reliability across assessments and moderate validity coefficients for fruit and total FJV combined for the BS sample. The FRF had higher validity coefficients for juice. The FFQ had moderate reliability and poor validity among the young adult group. Correction for measurement error in the 24hdr substantially increased validity coefficients to high levels for BS fruit and total FJV and to moderate levels for the HS groups, with some exceptions. APPLICATIONS/CONCLUSIONS: FFQ more validly assessed fruit and combined FJV consumption for the nine to 14 year-old BS but overestimated mean values. FRF means were closer to those of the 24hdr and were more valid for assessing juice consumption. The FFQ had moderate validity among the young adult group but overestimated consumption. Further research is needed on simpler methods of reporting diet in these age groups.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To compare diet and physical activity between a group of children aged 4 to 7 years who had increased their sum of 7 skinfolds by 1.5 standard deviations or more since the previous year and those who had not. SUBJECTS/DESIGN: A longitudinal design was used wherein children had their body composition assessed at 4 annual intervals. Fifteen study subjects were identified from a larger study on the development of cardiovascular risk factors in children. Three matched control subjects were identified for all but 4 study subjects. Children were included if they were 3 or 4 years old at the time of the first of 4 annual clinics to collect data. Children were volunteers from a mid-sized city. MEASURES: Seven skinfold sites were assessed, each 3 times. An average was taken of the mean at each site. Diet and physical activity were assessed using observational methods for up to 4 days for each of 3 years between the 4 annual clinics (held in the summers of 1986, 1987, 1988, and 1989). RESULTS: Children consumed significantly (P = .02) more fat grams and suggestively higher percentages of energy from fat (P = .06), total energy (P = .08), and percentage energy from protein (P = .10). No differences were detected for percent energy from carbohydrate, physical activity, or height. CONCLUSIONS: Programs to prevent childhood obesity might have success by targeting dietary fat consumption among children as young as 4 years old, but further research is needed.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Major life transitions (e.g., graduation from high school) are times when many changes occur in a person's social and physical environment. Men and women likely experience aspects of these changes differently. As a result, health-related behaviors likely change at these times with possible differences in these changes by gender. METHODS: Gender differences in the performance of chronic disease risk-related behaviors (fruit, juice, and vegetable intake; physical activity; tobacco and alcohol use; and sexual practices) through the transition out of high school (HS) were assessed in a secondary analysis of a nationally representative sample from the 1992 National Health Interview Survey-Youth Risk Behavior Survey. The survey was completed by 5881 young people aged 14 to 21 years. Regression discontinuity analysis with piecewise regression was performed. RESULTS: Statistically significant gender by transition effects were obtained for exercise/physical activity (decreases at the transition point for males), snuff use (decrease for females in HS), binge drinking and number of days drinking alcohol (increases for males at the transition point), and use of alcohol or drugs before sexual intercourse (decrease for females post HS). Fruit intake decreased for males and females and daily and heavy cigarette smoking increased during the HS years. Effect sizes were small but promising, given that the data set was not designed to test this hypothesis. CONCLUSION: These data offer evidence of differences by gender in chronic disease risk behaviors through the HS transition. Longitudinal studies are needed to assess the true nature of these differences, the tracking of these risk behaviors and their personal, social, and environmental determinants, including gender-specific determinants, that may explain these changes and inform future intervention development.

ABSTRACT

Psychosocial variables that predict dietary behavior become important targets for change in nutrition education programs. Psychosocial variables in models with higher predictability provide more effective levers to promote healthy dietary change. A review of the literature on models with psychosocial variables predicting dietary fat and fruit and vegetable consumption revealed generally low predictiveness, R2 < 0.3 (where R2 is the squared multiple correlation of the statistical model). No single theory provided models that regularly out-predicted others. When models predicted narrower categories of behavior (e.g. milk or salad consumption), predictiveness tended to be higher. Substantial problems were revealed in the psychometrics of both the independent and dependent variables. Little theory-based research has been conducted with adolescents, and the few studies done with children had low predictiveness. In order to increase the predictiveness of models, future research should combine variables from several theories, attend to the psychometrics of all variables, and incorporate variables that moderate the relationship of psychosocial to dietary behavior (e.g. genetics of taste, stage in the life course). Refinements on current research would include longitudinal designs and use of non-self-report methods of dietary behavior to supplement the self-report methods. Improved understanding of dietary behavior should lead to more effective dietary behavior change interventions.

ABSTRACT

Researchers assessed the possible moderating effects of school organizational characteristics (school climate, school health, and job satisfaction) on outcomes of a teacher health behavior change program. Thirty-two public schools were matched and randomly assigned either to treatment or control conditions. Organizational, dietary, and physiologic data were collected from third to fifth grade teachers over three years. Treatment schools received a teacher wellness program for two years. Psychometrics of most organizational scales achieved acceptable levels of reliability. Mixed model analyses were conducted to test for moderating effects. Treatment schools with high organizational climate and health scores reported higher fruit and juice and vegetable consumption at Year 2 compared with intervention schools with low scores. Treatment schools with high job satisfaction scores reported higher fruit and juice and lower-fat food consumption at Year 3 compared with intervention schools with low scores. These measures may be used as a tool to assess the environment in which school health promotion programs are presented. Future interventions may need to be tailored to the organizational characteristics of schools.

ABSTRACT

This paper presents results of the pilot-testing of a stage of change measure for eating fruit and vegetables (F & V) in 9- to 12-year-old girls. During troop meetings, 259 girls from 22 troops completed a 1-day food recognition form, a brief stage of change algorithm for fruit and for vegetables, and a questionnaire measuring psychosocial variables associated with F & V consumption. Stages for F & V consumption were different and MANOVAs revealed overall significant differences across stages for each variable. F & V intake increased with higher stages, as did preferences, self-efficacy for selecting, preparing, and eating F & V, subjective norms, and F & V preparation skills; reported barriers decreased. Stepwise discriminant analyses between Precontemplation and Contemplation stages identified fruit preferences and barriers differentiating the two stages for fruit consumption and subjective norms and self-efficacy differentiating the two stages for vegetable consumption. Barriers and F & V preparation responsibilities/skills were significant between the Contemplation and the Action stages for both fruit and vegetable consumption, with the additional variable of subjective norms for fruit stage and vegetable preferences for vegetable stage. Findings support the use of this measure to identify stage for children's adoption of F & V consumption behavior and as a guide for intervention development.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Certain cancers are more common among African Americans (AA). Fruit and vegetables (F&V) reduce cancer risk, but Americans, and African Americans in particular, do not meet the "5 A Day" goal. Scouting organizations, particularly urban Boy Scout groups that target inner-city youth, provide promising channels for nutritional behavioral change programs. METHODS: Focus groups were conducted with urban Boy Scouts and their parents to identify factors influencing F&V consumption and evaluate potential intervention activities. Twenty-four-hour dietary recalls were collected from 85 area Boy Scouts. A national data set was used to obtain values for F&V consumption by African American and European American (boys age 0-16). RESULTS: Vegetable preferences were low and a negative peer influence for vegetables was reported. The group has limited food-preparation skills, but both parents and scouts reported that F&V were available in their homes. Use of goal setting and use of problem-solving techniques were limited. The local scouts' mean F&V intake was 3.2 servings per day. Ethnic differences in F&V consumption were identified in the national data. CONCLUSIONS: Based on these results and previous interventions in schools, an overall structure for the intervention was developed to include eight weekly troop sessions and two camping sessions, parent newsletters, seven weekly home badge assignments, and ten comic books.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of lifestyle behavior interventions with children to reduce chronic disease risks in adulthood assumes stability in the lifestyle behaviors across time. The transition out of high school is a time when many changes occur in social roles, e.g., changing schools, leaving the parents' home, changing peers, finding employment, getting married, and becoming a parent. Cancer risk behaviors may increase as a result of some of these social role changes. METHODS: Concepts relevant to the stability or change in lifestyle behaviors through the transition out of high school are presented. Literature concerning diet, smoking, smokeless tobacco, alcohol, physical activity, sexual practices, and sun exposure behaviors through the transition is reviewed. RESULTS: Most lifestyle behaviors display increasing cancer risk around the transition out of high school. Different levels of change were associated with different pathways through the transition. Inconsistent findings were obtained in the pattern of co-occurrence of these behaviors. CONCLUSION: Priority research includes establishing the pattern of co-occurrence of lifestyle behaviors through the transition, identifying the pattern of tracking of each behavior through the transition, and identifying the primary influences on the group values and tracking of the behaviors. Longitudinal research is needed to control for preexisting differences between pathways through the transition.
