Featured publications A couple-based communication intervention for hematopoietic cell transplantation survivors and their caregiving partners: feasibility, acceptability, and change in process measures Langer SL, Porter LS, Romano JM, Todd MW, Lee SJ
Body composition outcomes of Tai Chi and Qigong practice: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials Larkey LK, James D, Belyea M, Jeong M, Smith LL
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) poses significant challenges for recipients and their caregiving partners. Couples may refrain from talking about treatment-related fears and concerns to minimize distress. This study examined feasibility and acceptability of an intervention designed to optimize communication between HCT patients and partners; it also assessed change in process measures. Read more.
Meditative movement (MM) practices are increasingly being studied, including examination of the potential for these modalities to contribute to weight management. In this review, a search was conducted for randomized controlled trials testing one or both of two forms of MM, Tai Chi and Qigong, reporting effects on changes in body composition. Data from these studies were extracted and tabled, and a meta-analysis of studies with inactive control conditions was conducted. Read more.
Hair as a barrier to physical activity among African American women: a qualitative exploration Joseph RP, Coe K, Ainsworth BE, Hooker SP, Mathis L, Keller C
Sustainability via Active Garden Education (SAGE): results from two feasibility pilot studies Lee RE, Parker NH, Soltero EG, Ledoux TA, Mama SK, McNeill L
African American (AA) women face unique sociocultural barriers to physical activity (PA) engagement. Such barriers may contribute to their low PA levels and high cardiometabolic disease burden. This article reports the findings of Dr. Joseph’s study that explored hairstyle maintenance as a barrier to PA among AA women and aimed to identify effective strategies to overcome this barrier in the design of a culturally relevant PA intervention. Read more.
Low physical activity (PA) and fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption in early childhood are continued public health challenges. This manuscript describes outcomes from two pilot studies for Sustainability via Active Garden Education (SAGE), a program designed to increase PA and F&V consumption among 3 to 5 year old children.

Advances in EBI development for diverse populations: towards a science of intervention adaptation Castro FG, Yasui M
Risk of hypoglycemia in youth with type 2 diabetes on insulin Shahid M, Shaibi GQ, Baines H, Garcia-Filion P, GonzalezGarcia Z, Olson M
This introduction examines major issues and challenges as presented in the special issue of Prevention Science, “Challenges to the Dissemination and Implementation of Evidence Based Prevention Interventions for Diverse Populations.” The authors describe the Fidelity-Adaptation Dilemma that became the origin of dynamic tensions in prevention science. It generated controversies and debates and new perspectives on the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based interventions (EBIs) within diverse populations. Read more.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive disease characterized by insulin resistance and declining beta cell function. Although once thought to be a disease of adulthood, the incidence of T2D in youth has steadily increased in recent years. Despite the increasing rates of T2D in youth, there is a relative lack of evidence to guide treatment options in this population. The objective of this study was to ascertain the risk of hypoglycemia among youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) on insulin therapy. Read more.
The intersection of men’s sexual violence perpetration and sexual risk behavior: a literature review Davis KC, Neilson EC, Wegner R, Danubed CL
Randomized controlled trial to prevent infant overweight in a high-risk population Reifsnider E, McCormick DP, Cullen KW, Todd M, Moramarco MW, Gallagher MR, Reyna L
Research from a variety of countries and samples has supported the proposition that men with a strong impersonal sex orientation (i.e., greater engagement in sexual activities with more casual sexual partners) are at increased risk of perpetrating sexual violence. In particular, this review focuses on the associations between men’s perpetration of sexual violence and their sexual partners, condom use, and sexually transmitted infection status, as well as provides recommendations for future research directions and prevention and intervention programming. Read more.
Overweight occurs during infancy and predicts child, adolescent, and adult obesity. Prevention is seen as the most effective means to address the epidemic of childhood obesity. The authors hypothesized that parent education, initiated prenatally and provided in the home, would reduce the incidence of infant overweight at age 12 months. Read more.

Dr. Gabe Shaibi on his partnership with St. Vincent de Paul: At the very beginning, it was just about listening to each other to determine what each other’s needs were. They identified some very specific, tangible requests that they thought we could help them with as far as evaluating their program and adding credibility to it by having an academic partner who can say that this is actually working and here’s the evidence, and also to help build on their program and increase the physical activity component. For me, my desire was to really think about ways to have the research that we do have a broader impact in the communities that we work with so that it doesn’t just end up as a publication but has a tangible impact on individuals and families.
