Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a health promotion program developed using Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) for older adults at risk for developing metabolic syndrome in rural areas of South korea.
Methods: The methodology of this study is a mixed method using embedded design. A non-random controlled trial (28 in the experimental group and 36 in the control group) for the quantitative study and a qualitative content analysis for the qualitative study were used.
Background: This scoping review analyses the literature on community-based participatory research (CBPR)-based cardiovascular disease (CVD) management programmes, examining the key elements of their development and implementation and exploring their effectiveness.
Methods: This scoping review's methodology had six stages: 1) identifying the research question; 2) identifying relevant studies-search strategy; 3) study selection; 4) charting the data; 5) collating, summarising, and reporting the results; and 6) consultation exercise. The databases used were PubMed, Cochrane, and CINAHL, for the period from 4 March to 3 April 2022.
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are health problems that demonstrate high death and prevalence rates, and exhibit large health inequalities across different socio-economic status. Although interest in community-based participatory research (CBPR) is increasing because of the efforts to improve health equity, not enough literature review has been conducted on CBPR-based CVD management programs. The objective of this scoping review is to identify the key elements that should be considered when developing CBPR-based CVD management programs, and explore the effects of CBPR-based CVD management programs.
