Local contextual factors of child stunting found via shared values of stakeholder groups: an exploratory case study in Kaffrine, Senegal
CONCLUSIONS: Local contextual factors were identified. Pre-knowledge of these could significantly improve effectiveness of intervention designs locally, with possible applicability at other sites. The WeValue_InSitu approach proved efficient and useful for making tangible contextual factors and their potential links to stunting, via a lens of local shared values, showing general promise for intervention research.PMID:37288526 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023001088 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Capturing the whole-school food environment in primary schools
CONCLUSIONS: The developed instrument can measure whole-school food environments in primary schools and also enabled identification of recommendations to enhance school food environments. Further assessment and adaptation of the instrument is required to enable future use as a research tool or for self-assessment use by schools.PMID:37272413 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023001131 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Socioeconomic correlates of childhood obesity in urban and rural England
CONCLUSIONS: Obesogenic environments present heightened risks in deprived urban and affluent rural areas. The results have potential value for policy making as for planning and targeting of services for vulnerable groups.PMID:37271723 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023000952 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Cross-sectional and prospective associations between behavioural patterns and adiposity in school-aged children
CONCLUSION: Three non-identical patterns were identified at 6-8 and 9-11 years. The individual behaviours that characterised patterns (dominant behaviours) at both ages are possible drivers of the patterns obtained and could explain the lack of associations with adiposity. Identifying individual behaviour pattern drivers and strategic intervention are key to maintain and prevent the decline of healthy patterns.PMID:37271724 | DOI:10.1017/S136898002300112X (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Cooking behaviors after Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) participation among DPP participants in Baltimore, MD
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, participants reported changing their food preferences, shopping practices, and cooking strategies to promote healthier eating after completing the DPP. Incorporating hands-on cooking skills and practices into the DPP curriculum may support sustained behavior change to manage prediabetes and prevent development of type 2 diabetes among participants.PMID:37271725 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023001106 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Socio-economic and Agricultural Factors Associated with Stunting of Under Five-year Children: Findings from Surveys in Mountains, Dry Zone and Delta Regions of Rural Myanmar (2016-17)
CONCLUSIONS: Area-specific factors were associated with stunting. Maternal short stature and child age were consistent determinants of stunting. A multi-sectoral local approach, including improvements in transport, is needed to address the intergenerational malnutrition problem.PMID:37254445 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023001076 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

The Association between Language Use and Food Insecurity among Hispanic Adults Residing in the United States Depends on Nativity
CONCLUSION: Foreign-born Hispanic adults who speak predominantly Spanish, or English and Spanish equally, have higher odds of food insecurity. Food and nutrition assistance programs that serve Hispanic immigrants should make sure to provide linguistically- and culturally appropriate services to this population.PMID:37248038 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023000885 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)
