    Abstract Background: The use of low-calorie menu items as optimal defaults and visual cues may nudge consumers to healthier choices at restaurants. However, little is known regarding their effects on emotions and behavioral intentions, particularly among people with different levels of health concern.
    Objective: Evaluate optimal defaults and visual cues' effect on anticipated pleasure and order intention depending upon consumers' health concern level.
    Design: Between-subjects randomized scenario-based experiment.
    Participants/setting: In all, 636 US adults recruited through an online crowdsourcing platform in July 2020.
    Intervention: Participants saw 1 of 6 menu boards in a fast-food drive-through simulation. Half the menu boards included meal photos with (1) menu items to be arranged as a combo by choice (ie, create-your-own combo); (2) traditional combos that included high-calorie default items; or (3) optimal combos that included low-calorie default items. The remaining 3 boards were identical without photos.
    Main outcome measures: Anticipated pleasure, order intention, and health concern were evaluated with 7-point Likert scales.
    Analysis: Statistical tests included multiple regression, Kruskal-Wallis, χ
    Results: Optimal combos negatively affected anticipated pleasure (P = .003) and order intention (P < .001) compared with choice combos. Order intention reduction was the same for traditional and optimal combos (P = .128). The presence of photos changed order intention for optimal combos but varied by consumer's health concern level. When health concern was lower, photos decreased the likelihood of ordering the optimal combos (B = -3.06, P = .001), but when health concern was higher, photos enhanced ordering intention compared with the choice group (B = 0.60, P = .001). The photos did not affect anticipated pleasure for any level of health concern.
    Conclusions: The adverse effect of optimal defaults and how visual cues may reduce their negative effect should be considered in menu design.

    Abstract Background: Low-calorie menu items as optimal defaults may encourage healthier choices when people eat out. Limited research has studied default effects from the restauranteurs' perspective, as well as the public health perspective.
    Objective: To examine the effects of optimal defaults on calories ordered, dietary autonomy, and visit intention in the context of a fast-food drive-through.
    Design: Between-subjects randomized scenario-based experiment.
    Participants/setting: In all, 377 adults who lived in the United States were recruited through a crowdsourcing platform in July 2020.
    Intervention: Participants were asked to visualize ordering a combo meal in a fast-food drive-through. They were randomly assigned to order from 1 of 3 menu boards: (1) menu items available for combos by customer choice, (2) combos that included traditional high-calorie default items, or (3) combos that included low-calorie optimal defaults.
    Main outcome measures: Differences in calories ordered among groups, dietary autonomy, and restaurant visit intention.
    Analysis: Statistical tests included multiple regression, Kruskal-Wallis, χ
    Results: Compared with the choice combo meals, optimal combo meals reduced calories ordered by consumers (-337 kcal, standard error = 19, P < .001), while traditional combos increased them (+132 kcal, standard error = 20, P < .001). No significant difference was found in visit intention. Dietary autonomy was affected by the optimal defaults (P = .025), even in participants with high health concern. Conversely, the traditional combo's effect on dietary autonomy was moderated by health concern (B = -0.26, P = .023), with only individuals with very high levels of health concern perceiving less autonomy.
    Conclusions: Optimal defaults provided a robust reduction in calories ordered but had implications for dietary autonomy.

    Abstract Purpose: To compare distal vibratory perception threshold and sensation in children who toe walked (TW) and controls.
    Methods: Vibration perception threshold was measured at the metacarpal and metatarsal phalangeal (MCP and MTP) joints in 11 TW and 15 age-matched controls. Mean vibratory threshold (MVT) was calculated for each site; a Pearson correlation coefficient was determined for MVT at MCP and MTP joints. Groups were compared using a Mann-Whitney U test. Parent/caregiver responses on the Short Sensory Profile (SSP) were compared using a χ test.
    Results: MVTs at the MCP and MTP joints were highly correlated in both groups. MVT was higher in TW compared with controls at each site. Children who TW were more likely to have a total SSP score in the "probable difference" or "definite difference" categories compared with the "no difference" category.
    Conclusion: Sensation should not be overlooked in the evaluation and clinical management of toe walking.

    Abstract Background: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections are increasing among reproductive age individuals. Direct acting antivirals (DAAs) can cure HCV, but the use of DAAs is not currently recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Individuals with HCV commonly have inadequate prenatal and postnatal care.
    Objectives: The purpose of our study was to demonstrate the success of a quality improvement program to increase evaluation during pregnancy and ensuring access to DAA treatment medication during the postpartum period for individuals with chronic HCV to achieve cure 12 weeks after completing therapy. The primary outcome was documented HCV cure rate compared among individuals who received immediate treatment with DAA after delivery or after weaning or a traditional approach of referral to an infectious diseases specialist or hepatologist. The secondary outcome was the proportion of infants exposed to HCV evaluated.
    Methods: An interdisciplinary team developed a program to increase evaluation and HCV treatment for postpartum individuals. Individuals who received prenatal care from March 2017 to May 2021 were eligible. Individuals with chronic HCV had a laboratory evaluation before delivery, and appropriate DAAs were selected for postpartum treatment. The health system specialty pharmacy dispensed DAA prescriptions immediately after delivery to those who were not breastfeeding. Individuals who did breastfeed had the option to begin treatment after weaning. Cure was defined as a sustained viral response or undetectable HCV RNA collected 12 weeks after completing DAA treatment.
    Results: We demonstrate the success of an interdisciplinary team to ensure access to therapy for the treatment of postpartum chronic HCV. Only 3 infants (25%) with mothers referred were evaluated at our institution compared with 44% of infants (n = 10) whose mothers were treated after delivery.
    Conclusion: An interdisciplinary team for HCV treatment improves access to treatment therapy with DAAs leading to the cure of chronic HCV after delivery.

    Abstract Due to the danger of food-borne illnesses associated with temporary foodservice establishments coupled with the increasing popularity of farmers’ markets, there is a growing need for an authentic examination of employees’ food safety practices. This study adopted a technology-based observational tool to assess whether farmers’ market foodservice employees performed proper hand-washing behaviors. Using smartphones, a total of 73 farmers’ market employees were observed, with their hand-washing behaviors compared to the Indiana State Health Code and County Health Inspector’s requirements. Results indicated that the frequency of hand washing varies depending on employee’s role, market location, and market size.

    Abstract The purpose of this study was pilot testing an instrument designed to measure subjective and objective knowledge about environmental practices in the wine industry, such as the use of pesticides in the vineyard and additives during wine making (e.g. sulfur or yeast), as well as waste (e.g. recycling) and water management. Additionally, concerns about the environment were captured through the revised New Environmental Paradigm (NEP) scale. Design / methodology / approach: Participants with three distinct levels of expertise were recruited at a Midwestern University in the United States. An online survey was administered. Data was analyzed with SPSS version 21. The sample (n=38) consisted of a novice group (n=11), an intermediate group (n=15), and industry experts (n=12). Findings: Between groups, there was a significant (p<0.003) difference in objective knowledge (μnovice=4.00, μintermediate=4.33, μexpert=5.75). None of the participants achieved the maximum score (9.00). Subjective scores were significantly (p=.026) correlated with objective scores (μnovice=10.55, μintermediate=15.13, μexpert=16.15). Novice’s subjective knowledge was significantly different from intermediate (p=.005) and expert participants (p=.001). Additionally, the high reliability of the NEP scale was confirmed (Cronbach’s alpha=.859). There was no significant difference regarding the participants’ environmental concern (r(36)=.316, p=.731). Practical implications: Environmentally friendly products are receiving increased consumer interest. Organic, biodynamic, and sustainable are terms used in the wine industry; however, this study suggests a lack of comprehension across all examined knowledge groups. Term clarification (organic, biodynamic, sustainable, etc.) and wine production education is warranted. Industry stakeholders (experts) should especially be knowledgeable in order to foster consumer appreciation for environmentally friendly wines and wine packaging.
