Background: Children in the United States have poor diet quality, increasing their risk for chronic disease burden later in life.

The Strong Families Start at Home/Familias Fuertes Comienzan en Casa (SFSH) was a 6-month, home-based, pilot randomized-controlled feasibility trial that aimed to improve the diet quality of 2-5-year-old children and promote positive parental feeding practices among a predominantly Hispanic/Latine sample.

Automated vehicles (AVs) have the potential to enhance transportation for all, but current research suggests that women remain less engaged and more hesitant toward their adoption. This scoping review systematically analyses 34 peer-reviewed studies published between 2016 and 2025 to assess how women's experiences, needs, and concerns are represented in AV research. Using thematic analysis, we identify key facilitators and barriers to AV adoption and map them onto a Socio-Ecological Model spanning five levels: individual, interpersonal, institutional, community, and policy.

Background And Objectives: Over 12% of older Latinos in the United States have Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), facing earlier onset of the disease and severe symptoms compared to non-Hispanic Whites. These disparities in ADRD among Latinos can lead to significant caregiver strain and burden in Latino ADRD caregivers. Notably, Latino ADRD caregivers have poor overall health outcomes and face systemic inequities including limited access to quality dementia care resources that impact their well-being significantly.

This study examines how conflict-induced disruptions transform a preventable and typically self-limiting disease-Hepatitis A-into a fatal outcome.
