Examining relationships between perceptions and objective assessments of neighborhood environment and sedentary time: Data from the Washington, D.C. Cardiovascular Health and Needs Assessment

Chaarushi Ahuja, Colby R. Ayers, Jacob Hartz, Joel Adu‐Brimpong et autres

Sedentary time (ST) and neighborhood environment (NE) are predictors of cardiovascular (CV) health. However, little is known about ST's relationship with NE. We examined associations of perceived and objective NE with ST in the predominantly African American faith-based population of the Washington, …

The Communication, Awareness, Relationships and Empowerment (C.A.R.E.) Model: An Effective Tool for Engaging Urban Communities in Community-Based Participatory Research

Joniqua Nashae Ceasar, Marlene H. Peters-Lawrence, Valerie M. Mitchell, Tiffany M. Powell‐Wiley

Little is known about recruitment methods for racial/ethnic minority populations from resource-limited areas for community-based health and needs assessments, particularly assessments that incorporate mobile health (mHealth) technology for characterizing physical activity and dietary intake. We examined whether the Communication, Awareness, Relationships and …

Abstract MP025: Unfavorable Perceptions of Neighborhood Environment are Associated With Greater Sedentary Time - Data From the Washington, D.C. Cardiovascular Health and Needs Assessment

Chaarushi Ahuja, Colby Ayers, Jacob Hartz, Joel Adu‐Brimpong et autres

Background: Sedentary time (ST) and unfavorable perceptions of neighborhood environment (NE) are independently associated with poor cardiovascular (CV) health. However, little is known about ST’s relationship to NE perceptions. Methods: We examined associations between ST and NE perception in the Washington, DC …

Abstract P381: Vascular Inflammation as a Subclinical Marker of Atherosclerosis Demonstrates High Cardiometabolic Risk in a Resource-limited, Community-based Population

Joshua P. Rivers, Valerie M. Mitchell, Marlene H. Peters-Lawrence, Aditya A. Joshi et autres

Background: Vascular inflammation (VI) is associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) events among populations with inflammatory disease. Less is known about VI among populations in communities characterized by lower neighborhood-level socioeconomic status and limited resources for physical activity and dietary intake, particularly those …

Adherence with physical activity monitoring wearable devices in a community-based population: observations from the Washington, D.C., Cardiovascular Health and Needs Assessment

Leah Yingling, Valerie M. Mitchell, Colby R. Ayers, Marlene H. Peters-Lawrence et autres

Wearable mobile health (mHealth) technologies offer approaches for targeting physical activity (PA) in resource-limited, community-based interventions. We sought to explore user characteristics of PA tracking, wearable technology among a community-based population within a health and needs assessment. In 2014–2015, we conducted the …
