    Abstract Many mothers are vulnerable to poor diet quality, particularly those living in low-income households. The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) provides nutrient-rich foods through its benefits packages, but many WIC participants are not redeeming them. We assessed the feasibility and acceptability of a digital intervention to support redemption and consumption of WIC-approved foods to ultimately improve diet quality. We enrolled 54 maternal-child dyads receiving WIC benefits to receive three to four weekly text messages for 12 weeks focused on behavioral goals to improve consumption of WIC-approved foods. We assessed engagement with weekly tracking messages and satisfaction and collected 24 h dietary recalls to assess preliminary efficacy on dietary intake. Participants were mostly non-Hispanic white (63%) and working (63%), and responded to 7.4 (standard deviation: 4.6) of the 12 weekly messages. Half (n = 27) were high engagers (responded to 80% or more of weekly messages), with 28% (n = 15) responding to all messages. Most felt the feedback (94%) and tips (87%) were helpful and would recommend the program (91%). More were consuming leafy green vegetables compared to baseline (

    Abstract Objective: There is widespread overuse of antibiotics in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The objective of this study was to safely reduce antibiotic use in participating NICUs by targeting early-onset sepsis (EOS) management.
    Study design: Twenty-eight NICUs participated in this statewide multicenter antibiotic stewardship quality improvement collaborative. The primary aim was to reduce the total monthly mean antibiotic utilization rate (AUR) by 25% in participant NICUs.
    Result: Aggregate AUR was reduced by 15.3% (p < 0.001). There was a wide range in improvement among participant NICUs. There were no increases in EOS rates or nosocomial infection rates related to the intervention.
    Conclusion: Participation in this multicenter NICU antibiotic stewardship collaborative targeting EOS was associated with an aggregate reduction in antibiotic use. This study informs efforts aimed at sustaining improvements in NICU AURs.

    Abstract Background: eHealth technologies offer an efficient method to integrate park prescriptions into clinical practice by primary health care (PHC) providers to help patients improve their health
    Methods: The GPI study was designed as a 3-arm, multi-site observational study. We enrolled low-income, rural adults either at-risk of or living with hypertension or diabetes (
    Discussion: The goal was to create a protocol utilizing eHealth technologies that addressed the specific needs of rural low-income communities and fit into the natural rhythms and processes of the selected FQHC clinics in North Carolina. This protocol offered a higher standard of health care by connecting patients to their PHC teams and increasing patient motivation to make longer-lasting health behavior changes.

  6. Article ; Online: Identification of naturally occurring atoxigenic strains of Fusarium verticillioides and their potential as biocontrol agents of mycotoxins and ear rot pathogens of maize

    Abstract Pre-harvest infection of seed with either of two major ear rot pathogens of maize, Fusarium verticillioides and Aspergillus flavus, leads to high economic losses and detrimental health effects to humans and animals through the production of mycotoxins, fumonisin and aflatoxin, respectively. These carcinogenic compounds are some of the most agriculturally important mycotoxins, consumption of which can lead to various cancers and stunted growth. While atoxigenic strains of A. flavus are used for biocontrol of aflatoxin, no similar biocontrol agent exists for F. verticillioides. We hypothesized that fumonisin non-producing (atoxigenic) F. verticillioides may competitively exclude or antagonize A. flavus and promote plant growth. We screened 150 isolates of Fusarium spp. collected from maize across Texas and identified several F. verticillioides isolates that did not produce fumonisin either in vitro or when grown on maize kernels. Atoxigenic strains of F. verticillioides, 302-A6 and PAL 401, variably affected plant growth following seed coating or soil injection. When pre-applied in a kernel bioassay, both strains significantly inhibited aflatoxin contamination compared to kernels later inoculated only with A. flavus. Applied as a seed coating, neither isolate inhibited aflatoxin or fumonisin accumulation in mature plants. Results confirmed that fumonisin is not required for virulence in Fusarium stalk rot infections. Application of F. verticillioides 302-A6 to developing ears reduced fumonisin accumulation by naturally-occurring toxigenic strains of F. verticillioides. This atoxigenic strain of F. verticillioides and others need to be further investigated to prove their efficacy and potential use as atoxigenic biocontrol agents to reduce fumonisin risk in corn.

    Abstract Background: Children in the United States eat too few fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and too many energy-dense foods; these dietary behaviors are associated with increased risk of obesity. Maternal diet plays a key role in shaping children's diets; however, many mothers have poor diet quality, especially those living in low-income households. The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a federal nutrition assistance program that provides mothers and children with nutrient-dense foods, and those who participate have better diet quality. However, many mothers do not redeem all their WIC-approved foods. Thus, there is a need to create effective interventions to improve diet quality, especially among low-income children and families.
    Objective: This paper aims to describe the development and protocol for a study to evaluate the feasibility, satisfaction, and preliminary efficacy of a fully automated text messaging intervention as a strategy to improve maternal diet quality and the redemption of WIC-approved foods.
    Methods: We describe the use of the framework developed for the description of nonrandomized feasibility studies. Using an observational, prospective cohort study design, we will recruit mothers enrolled in WIC with a child aged ≤2 years. Participants will receive automated SMS text messages aimed at improving the redemption of WIC-approved foods to improve the participants' diet quality for 12 weeks. All outcome measures will be analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Qualitative data will be analyzed using thematic analysis.
    Results: Data collection for this study began in March 2021. We expect the study results to be available within 9 months of study commencement. The results will shed light on the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of using automated text messages as a behavior change strategy for mothers enrolled in WIC.
    Conclusions: The results of this pilot study will explore whether this digital behavioral intervention, which will deliver nutrition guidance in accordance with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans using interactive self-monitoring and feedback, is feasible and acceptable. This will lay the foundation for a larger evaluation to determine efficacy for improving diet quality in those most at risk for obesity.

    Abstract Background: Despite limited data on neighborhood factors and health risk in Caribbean populations, previous analyses from Jamaica have shown that neighborhood and home disorder were associated with lower physical activity and higher cumulative biological risk among women, while poorer neighborhood infrastructure was associated with higher overweight/obesity among men.
    Design: Cross-sectional survey design.
    Objectives: In this study, we explored whether community stressors, as measured by community violence, victimization and neighborhood disorder scores, were associated with cardiometabolic outcomes (obesity, diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol) in urban Jamaican communities. Sex-specific Poisson regression models were used to estimate prevalence ratios (PR) for these associations, adjusting for age, education, diet, physical activity and smoking.
    Participants: Of the 849 participants (M = 282;
    Results: We observed significant associations only for those in the middle tertile of neighborhood disorder with prevalence of higher cholesterol [PR:1.72 (1.20 to 2.47)] in women and lower prevalence of obesity [PR:0.24 (0.10 to 0.53)] in men.
    Conclusion: Results suggest that higher, but not the highest level of neighborhood disorder was associated with higher cholesterol levels in women and lower obesity in men. Future work will explore additional approaches to measuring neighborhood characteristics in Jamaica and the mechanisms that may underlie any relationships that are identified.
