Abstract:
Although Hispanics demonstrate a low overall incidence of rectal cancer, mortality rates have not decreased relative to non-Hispanic whites. To determine if this was in part due to racial disparities in care, we compared rates of neoadjuvant therapy and sphincter-preserving surgery between Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites diagnosed with rectal cancer using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. The study population was comprised of 2,573 Hispanics (55.4% male) and 28,395 non-Hispanic whites (56.6% male). Rates of neoadjuvant radiation were 13.5 per cent for Hispanics compared with 10.4 per cent for non-Hispanic whites (P < 0.001). In a Cox proportional hazards model adjusting for nodal status, tumor size, and T stage, non-Hispanic whites were significantly less likely to have received neoadjuvant therapy (hazard ratio, 0.72; P < 0.001; 95% confidence interval 0.63–0.83). Rates of sphincter preservation were 67 per cent for Hispanics and 70 per cent for non-Hispanic whites (P = 0.003). Non-Hispanic whites were significantly more likely to have received a sphincter-preserving operation than Hispanics (hazard ratio, 1.076; P = 0.019; 95% confidence interval 1.02–1.27). We conclude that Hispanics are significantly more likely to receive neoadjuvant therapy but are less likely to receive sphincter-sparing operations for rectal cancer compared with non-Hispanic whites. Further studies are required to assess the impact of these treatment disparities on patient outcome.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: The ethnic diversity of women with osteoporosis has increased, but data on acculturation and health remain limited. Having a primary language (PL) other than English may reflect acculturation level and/or immigration as an adult. We used electronic health record (EHR) data from a large US health plan to examine the association of baseline clinical risk conditions and PL among US Chinese and US Hispanic women who initiated osteoporosis therapy. Methods: We identified women age 65-74y who initiated osteoporosis therapy in 2002–2014, excluding those with skeletal disorders, advanced kidney disease and metastatic cancer. PL was ascertained from the EHR. The study included 1676 Chinese women with English-PL (50%) vs Chinese-PL (50%); 3453 Hispanic women with English-PL (72%) vs Spanish-PL (28%); and 20,289 non-Hispanic White (White) women with English-PL. Clinical conditions assessed included: current smoking; BMI &lt;19 kg/m2; Charlson-Deyo Comorbidity Index (CCI); diabetes (DM) based on diagnosis with treatment; rheumatoid arthritis (RA) based on 2 diagnoses; and fracture diagnosis in the prior 5 years. Language subgroups (* denotes significant difference by PL, p&lt;.05) and ethnic groups (all ethnic differences cited are significant at p&lt;.05) were compared using chi-square tests. Results: Mean age was (69±3y) for Chinese, Hispanics, Whites, and PL subgroups. Prior fracture was lower in Chinese (12.8%) and Hispanics (25.6%) vs Whites (29.7%), with Chinese lower than Hispanics. Smoking was lower in Chinese (1.6%) and Hispanics (6.7%) vs Whites (11.3%). CCI score ≥3 was lower in Chinese (5.2%) and higher in Hispanics (13.0%) vs Whites (10.4%). RA was low overall and lowest in Chinese, especially Chinese-PL. More Chinese (4.2%) and fewer Hispanics (0.8%) had a BMI &lt;19 vs Whites (2.2%). DM was higher in Hispanics (14.8%) and Chinese (8.2%) compared to Whites (5.7%). Significant and non-significant differences by PL were observed for current smoking (0.8%* vs 2.4% for Chinese-PL vs English-PL; 4.0% vs 7.8% for Spanish-PL vs English-PL), prior fracture (11.4%* vs 14.2% for Chinese-PL vs English-PL; 24.3% vs 26.1% for Spanish-PL vs English-PL) and DM (10.5%* vs 5.8% for Chinese-PL vs English-PL; 24.3% vs 26.1% for Spanish-PL vs English-PL) in Chinese and Hispanic women. Conclusion: Among older women initiating osteoporosis therapy, US Chinese women have lower comorbidity but a higher DM prevalence compared to white women, especially those with Chinese-PL. Hispanic women have higher comorbidity and higher DM prevalence than White women, with no differences by PL. Variation in prior fracture, low BMI, RA, and smoking were also seen. These findings highlight ethnic differences in women receiving osteoporosis care, including differences by primary language in Chinese women. Future studies should examine fracture risk factors and outcomes in US immigrant populations, especially Asians.

Abstract:
433 Background: Although incidence rates for colorectal cancer (CRC) for Hispanics are similar to non-Hispanic whites (NHW) in New Mexico, the cause-specific mortality is higher among the Hispanic population. Hispanics have also been shown to be less likely to be current with colorectal cancer screening guidelines as compared to NHW. The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a difference between Hispanics and NHW in stage at presentation and if the care provided was concordant with NCCN guidelines at our NCI designated cancer center. Methods: A prospective data base of all patients who presented with colorectal cancer between June 2009 and July 2013 was queried. A total of 197 patients were identified. Data was extracted that included: demographics, stage of CRC at first diagnosis, treatments given, and pathology results. Frequencies of stage at presentation and NCCN guideline concordance (meeting the 12 lymph node metric, receipt of adjuvant therapy for stage III disease and radiation therapy for locally advanced rectal cancer) were recorded. Results: The Table shows the results. There were 107 (55%) males. There was not a statistical difference in the stage of presentation for Hispanics and NHW for patients with colon cancer. Hispanic patients with rectal cancer, however, presented with more advanced stage of disease as compared to NHW (p<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in concordance with NCCN guidelines for the three metrics analyzed. Conclusions: Hispanics and NHW with colon cancer presented with similar stage of disease and were concordant with NCCN guideline metrics. Hispanics with rectal cancer, however, presented at a more advanced stage of disease as compare to NHW patients. The reason for this disparity remains to be elucidated. Future studies to include outreach, education, screening and molecular profiling of these disparate populations are planned. [Table: see text]

Abstract:
e16065 Background: Discrepancies in clinical outcomes between different ethnic groups are well known in cancer patients. Differences in mRCC patients receiving VEGF-TT are less well characterized. We thought to report on baseline characteristics and treatment outcomes in African-Americans (AA) and Hispanic patients from the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC). Methods: Caucasians, AA and Hispanics with mRCC treated with 1stline VEGF-TT were identified from the IMDC. We created 2 matched cohorts: 1) AA vs. Caucasians and 2) Hispanics vs. Caucasians, both matched for age (<50; 50-59; 60-69; <70-year-old), gender, years of treatment (2003-07; 2008-12; 2013-16) and geography (Canada, USA, Europe). Weighted Cox and logistic regressions were used to compare OS, time-to-treatment failure (TTF) and best response, adjusted for nephrectomy status, IMDC risk groups, number of metastatic sites (1 v. >1) and histology (clear-cell vs. else). Results: 73 AA and 71 Hispanics met eligibility criteria and were matched with 1236 and 901 eligible Caucasians, respectively. AA had more non-clear cell histology (26% v. 11%), time from diagnosis to therapy<1 year (67% v. 55%) and anemia (75% v. 54%) vs. Caucasians. Differences were not significant for Hispanics. Clinical outcomes are presented in Table. Conclusions: Adjusted for clinical prognostic factors, Hispanics with mRCC have statistically shorter TTF and survival than Caucasians. AA had a trend toward shorter TTF (not significant) but similar survival than Caucasians. Underlying genetic/biological differences, along with potential cultural variations, may impact survival in Hispanic mRCC patients. [Table: see text]

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of the study was to assess racial disparities in the treatment and outcomes among white, African American, and Hispanic patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Patients with an MM diagnosis from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)–Medicare (2007-2013) database were included. Continuous Medicare enrollment for 6 months before (baseline) and after MM diagnosis was required unless death occurred. Time from MM diagnosis to novel therapy initiation and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), overall survival (OS), and MM-specific survival (MSS) was evaluated. Unadjusted and multivariable regressions compared African Americans and Hispanics vs whites. Trends of novel therapy and ASCT use across MM diagnosis years were assessed using linear regression models. The study included 3504 whites, 858 African Americans, and 468 Hispanics. African Americans and Hispanics had a longer time from MM diagnosis to novel therapy initiation vs whites (median: 5.2 and 4.6 vs 2.7 months, respectively). All cohorts had an increasing trend of novel therapy initiation within 6 months of MM diagnosis, particularly whites (all P &lt; .05). Median MSS was significantly longer for African Americans (5.4 years) than whites (4.5 years; P &lt; .05), and was comparable for Hispanics and whites. Median OS was similar overall (2.6-2.8 years). ASCT rate within 1 year of MM diagnosis rose among whites and African Americans (P &lt; .05), but not Hispanics, who were less likely to receive ASCT vs whites. Significant variations in novel therapy and ASCT use were observed among different racial/ethnic groups with MM. Although OS was similar, both African Americans and Hispanics may not be fully benefitting from the introduction of novel therapies, as they receive them later than whites.

Abstract:
6561 Background: Hispanics are the fastest-growing minority accounting for 18% of the US population. The National Cancer Institute estimated 17,290 new cases of esophageal cancer (EC) in the US in 2018. Hispanics are reported to have lower EC prevalence. We sought to interrogate the demographic patterns of EC in Hispanics. Secondary objective was to examine evidence of socioeconomic disparities and differential therapy. Methods: We queried the National Cancer Database to identify patients with EC between 2005–2015. Patients were divided into two groups, Hispanic vs Non-Hispanic (NH). Demographics compared were age, sex, tumor data, surgical intervention, type of treatment, insurance status, income, residence area, and Charlson/Deyo score. Pearson’s Chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables. Groups were matched by propensity score-matched analysis (PSM). Survival analysis was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and associated log-rank test. P-value ≤0.05 was considered significant. Results: We identified 85,004 patients with EC; 3,205 were Hispanic (3.8%). In this US population we identified significant disparities between the Hispanic and NH groups. Statistically significant differences among Hispanics included higher prevalence of squamous EC (24.7% vs 19.6%), higher likelihood of stage IV cancer diagnosis (40.7% vs. 34.8%), younger age, higher uninsured status (10.4% vs 3%) with income < $38,000 (26.4% vs 15.9%), and Charlson/Deyo score 0 (72.3% vs 70.7%) when compared to NH. However, Hispanics were less likely to have surgical intervention (29% vs 36.3) and overall less likely to receive any type of treatment (30.1% vs 26.1%). PSM showed that any treatment, insurance status and lower income were predictors of survival. Treated Hispanics survived longer than NH (median survival 17 vs 15 months). Overall survival at 5 years was 22% vs 17%, respectively, p < 0.05. Conclusions: Despite lower prevalence of EC in Hispanics compared to NH, there is a disproportionately higher number of metastatic and untreated cases among Hispanics. This disparity may be explained by Hispanics' limited access to medical care exacerbated by their socioeconomic and insurance status. Further clinical and epidemiologic research is warranted to reveal other factors impacting these health disparities.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to examine positive predictive value (PPV) of medication therapy management (MTM) eligibility criteria under Medicare Modernization Act (MMA) and Affordable Care Act (ACA) in identifying patients with medication utilization issues across racial and ethnic groups. The study analyzed Medicare data (2012-2013) for 2 213 594 beneficiaries. Medication utilization issues were determined based on medication utilization measures mostly developed by Pharmacy Quality Alliance. MMA was associated with higher PPV than ACA in identifying individuals with medication utilization issues among non-Hispanic blacks (blacks) and Hispanics than non-Hispanic whites (whites). For example, odds ratio for having medication utilization issues to whites when examining MMA in 2013 and ACA were 1.09 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-1.15) among blacks, and 1.17 (95% CI = 1.10-1.24) among Hispanics, in the main analysis. Therefore, MMA was associated with 9% and 17% higher PPV than ACA in identifying patients with medication utilization issues among blacks and Hispanics, respectively, than whites.

Abstract:
Relocation from one’s birthplace may affect human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) outcomes, but national estimates of HIV outcomes among Hispanics/Latinos by place of birth are limited. We analyzed Medical Monitoring Project data collected in 2015–2018 from 2564 HIV-positive Hispanic/Latino adults and compared clinical outcomes between mainland US-born (referent group), Puerto Rican (PR-born), and those born outside the United States (non-US-born). We reported weighted percentages of characteristics and used logistic regression with predicted marginal means to examine differences between groups (p < 0.05). PR-born Hispanics/Latinos were more likely to be prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART) (94%) and retained in care (94%) than mainland-US-born (79% and 77%, respectively) and non-US-born (91% and 87%, respectively) Hispanics/Latinos. PR-born Hispanics/Latinos were more likely to have sustained viral suppression (75%) than mainland-US-born Hispanics/Latinos (57%). Non-US-born Hispanics/Latinos were more likely to be prescribed ART (91% vs. 79%), retained in care (87% vs. 77%), and have sustained viral suppression (74% vs. 57%) than mainland-US-born Hispanics/Latinos. Greater Ryan White HIV/AIDS-funded facility usage among PR-born, better mental health among non-US-born, and less drug use among PR-born and non-US-born Hispanics/Latinos may have contributed to better HIV outcomes. Expanding programs with comprehensive HIV/AIDS services, including for mental health and substance use, may reduce HIV outcome disparities among Hispanics/Latinos.

Abstract:
Background. Disparities in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care for women and minorities have been extensively reported in United States but with limited information on Hispanics.Methods. Medical records of 287 (62%) Hispanic and 176 (38%) non-Hispanic white (NHW) patients and 245 women (53%) admitted with suspected AMI to a southern California nonprofit community hospital with a large Hispanic patient and provider representation were reviewed. Baseline characteristics, outcomes (mortality, CATH, PCI, CABG, and use of pertinent drug therapy), and medical insurance were analyzed according to gender, Hispanic and NHW race/ethnicity when AMI was confirmed. For categorical variables,2×2chi-square analysis was conducted. Odds ratio and 95% confidence interval for outcomes adjusted for gender, race/ethnicity, cardiovascular risk factors, and insurance were obtained.Results. Women and Hispanics had similar drug therapy, CATH, PCI, and mortality as men and NHW when AMI was confirmed (n=387). Hispanics had less private insurance than NHW (31.4% versus 56.3%,P<0.001); no significant differences were found according to gender.Conclusions. No differences in quality measures and outcomes were found for women and between Hispanic and NHW in AMI patients admitted to a facility with a large Hispanic representation. Disparities in medical insurance showed no influence on these findings.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To review the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in Hispanics in the US and highlight the modalities most likely to be unfamiliar to healthcare practitioners. DATA SOURCES: A search of the literature published in English and a subsequent bibliographic search were conducted using MEDLINE, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, EMBASE, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Manual Alternative and Natural Therapy Index System (1980– March 2007). Primary search terms included, but were not limited to, Hispanic, Latino, complementary and alternative medicine, and dietary supplements. Studies that assessed or evaluated the use of CAM in the Hispanic population were reviewed. Articles that included both Hispanics and non-Hispanics were also included. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: The literature search yielded 42 articles focused on the use of CAM by Hispanics. Survey was the most common method used in these studies, although some hybrid interviews were also conducted. DATA SYNTHESIS: Hispanics were identified homogenously in some studies and more correctly as a heterogeneous population in others. Some trials examined overall CAM use, whereas others looked at specific dietary supplements and herbs. Most reports found a higher than expected rate of CAM use in Hispanics (50–90%). A number of products potentially unfamiliar to healthcare practitioners, such as linden, sapodilla, and star anise, were reported as commonly used in several studies. Many studies were limited by the sample size or use of only one Hispanic subgroup. CONCLUSIONS: Hispanics use a wide range of CAM therapies, including several that may be unfamiliar to healthcare practitioners. Understanding the rationale, motivations, and history of Hispanics' use of CAM will enhance the cultural competence of healthcare professionals and help address these patients' medical needs. TRASFONDO: El uso de terapias de medicina complementaria y alternativa (CAM) es común entre los pacientes y se cree que la etnicidad influye en la frecuencia y extensión de su uso. Los pacientes de origen Hispano son una sub-población en rápido crecimiento. Con el fin de proveer efectivamente cuidado a este grupo de pacientes, es importante entender el papel de las terapias CAM en los tratamientos de esta población.

Abstract:
This study utilized focus groups to assess the perceived needs and interests for marriage education among single and married Latino individuals residing in Utah County, Utah as well as the identification of common themes and differences for this population. Male and female groups at various points in the marital developmental life stage were studied including high school students (15-18 years of age), single never married young adults (19-30 years of age), committed (engaged or cohabiting) adults, married persons recently transitioning to parenting, and married people with children. The sample consisted of 10 groups, 5 female and 5 male. In addition, a professional group consisting of professionals who are in daily contact with the Latino population also participated (N=12). A total of 53 Latino individuals and 12 professionals were interviewed in the focus groups. The participants were asked 14 open-ended questions to assess various elements of marriage education including content, cost, convenient locations, sources of information, perceived barriers to getting services as well as strategies on how to get people involved in marriage education programs. The data from the focus groups were analyzed using inductive qualitative methods. The findings showed that most females were concerned about domestic violence and infidelity as topics in marriage education while males were more concerned about having financial stability, improving communication skills and increase their parenting skills. These results support the importance of conducting focus groups as a way to assess marriage education needs and interests of the Latino population. Limitations for future research are discussed, implications for marriage education programming for Latino couples as well as implications for marriage and family therapists.

Abstract:
This pilot study examined the effects of a program designed for Hispanic older adults to promote wellness and a health promoting lifestyle. Pre and post-tests were administered using the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II) to all participants in the experimental group (n=25) and in the control group (n=19). The experimental group participated in a 16 session health and wellness program that included lectures, activities, and discussions in the areas of health responsibility, physical activity, nutrition, spiritual growth, interpersonal relations, and stress management. Participants in the program significantly improved their overall HPLP-II score, p < .001, as well as each of the HPLP-II areas. Participants in the program scored significantly higher than the control group on the overall HPLP-II score, p < .001, and in each of the HPLP-II areas. Health perception, although not significantly related to engagement in wellness and a health promoting lifestyle for participants in this study, was in the expected direction rs = 0.28, p = 0.062. Results indicate a culturally-relevant occupational health promotion program can improve wellness and a health promoting lifestyle for Hispanic older adults.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the relation between acculturative stress and marital distress among Hispanic American women and to explore the potential mediating roles of variables believed to be important to marital functioning among ethnic minorities and immigrants (e.g., acculturation, ethnic identity, social support, etc.). Based on data from 103 Hispanic American married women, pressure to acculturate toward the dominant culture of the U.S. was found to significantly correlate with the amount of distress the women reported in their marital relationships. Two variables were found to partially mediate the correlation. Perceived social support and recent stressful life events attenuated the effect acculturative stress had on marital distress. The importance for mental health professionals to address acculturative stress with Hispanic women or couples in marital therapy, and other clinical implications of the findings, are discussed.

Abstract:
This study employed a pretest/posttest control group design to investigate the achievement of second grade Hispanic students from a predominantly low socio-economic school in a large metropolitan city. The thirty Hispanic students with the lowest scores on the Gates MacGinitie Reading Test were randomly assigned to the experimental group (n =15) or the control group (n=15). The treatment consisted of 16, 30-minute sessions of play intervention--2 times per week for 8 weeks. The providers of play therapy were school personnel trained in the principles of child-centered play therapy including tracking, reflecting feelings, and setting limits. Instruments were administered to all subjects prior to the 8 week treatment period and in the two-week period following treatment and included the GMRT, the Joseph Pre-School Primary Self-Concept Test (JPPSCST) and the Child Behavior Checklist Teacher Report Form (CBCTRF). Statistical analyses included a (t-test; 2 tail; p > .05), discriminant analysis, and cross validation. The results indicated that children who received play therapy did not achieve notably higher mean scores in reading. However, play therapy did improve the experimental group's self-concept scores and their internal behavior scores, though not significantly. All differences between the experimental and the control groups were within 1 point except the JPPSCST self-concept mean scores were 1.53 in favor of the experimental group. The CBCTRF Internal behavior mean scores were 1.20 in favor of the experimental group indicating a positive trend. The CBCTRF External behavior scores were 2.74 in favor of the control group. None of the differences was statistically significant and the 4 null hypotheses were accepted. The sample size (N =30) suggests the need to exercise caution in interpreting these findings.Further research utilizing a longer time period between pretesting and posttesting is recommended and may provide more definite information regarding the impact of play therapy on children's reading, self-concept, and internal and external behavioral characteristics.

This quasi-experimental study examined the effects of child-parent relationship therapy (CPRT) with low income first generation immigrant Hispanic parents. Forty-eight parents were randomly assigned by school site to the experimental group (n=24) and to the no treatment control group (n=24). A two factor (Time x Group) repeated measures analysis of variance was performed to examine the effects of group membership (experimental, control) and time (pretest, posttest) on each of the six hypotheses. Dependent variables for the Spanish version of the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) included Externalizing Problems, Internalizing Problems, and Total Problems. Dependent variables for the Spanish version of the Parenting Stress Index (PSI) included Child Domain, Parent Domain, and Total Stress. Results indicated that from pre-test to post-test, parents who participated in the CPRT treatment group reported a statistically significant improvement on their children's behaviors at the alpha .025 level (Internalizing Problems p< .001; Externalizing Problems p< .001; Total Problems p<.001) when compared to children whose parents did not participate in CPRT. Partial eta squared (ηp2) further indicated that the effects of CPRT treatment on the experimental group compared to the control group from pre-test to post-test was large (ηp2 = .56; ηp2 = .59; and ηp2 = .68, respectively). Similarly, results indicated that from pre-test to post-test, parents who participated in the CPRT treatment group reported a statistically significant improvement on parent-child relationship stress at the alpha .025 level (Child Domain p< .001; Parent Domain p< .001; Total Stress p< .001) when compared to parents who did not participate in CPRT. Partial eta squared (ηp2) further indicated that the effects of CPRT treatment on the experimental group compared to the control group from pre-test to post-test was large (ηp2 = .39; ηp2 = .51; and ηp2 = .42, respectively).

Abstract:

The lessons that psychologists acquire from their work with their clients has been somewhat overlooked in psychological research. Following the initial study of Hatcher et al. (2012), and the related investigation of Smith (2012), this cross-cultural investigation explores the narratives of psychologists who practice in different cultures with regard to their learning from clients. American, Mexican American, and psychologists from México participated in this study. This investigation has a tripartite objective as it seeks to expand the understanding of: (a) what psychologists learn from their work with clients across nine different areas: life lessons, relationships, ethical dilemmas, coping mechanisms, courage, personality styles and psychopathology, cultural differences, life stages and general wisdom; (b) to explore emic themes that reflect values, dimensions, professional experiences, and realities of therapists who work with bicultural Hispanic clients; and (c) to shed light on cross-cultural similarities and differences that emerge between the three groups. Participants were presented with semi-structured interviews that were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis. Altogether, the analysis of the three groups found nearly more similarities than differences. Broadly, these results suggest that working with psychotherapy clients across different nations, cultures, or Spanish/English languages provides more universal than local wisdom. Culturally, American psychologists voiced themes representing individualism, multicultural awareness, and ideas for working with non-western clients. Both psychologists in México and Mexican Americans brought forth themes representing familismo, marianismo, personalismo, and religion. Mexican American narratives are distinctive for containing Hispanic bicultural, intersectionality, and México-America borderland themes. The responses of psychologists in México and Americans were the most similar, while the narratives of Mexican American psychologists were most different. This key finding might be explained by observing that bicultural individuals likely have a greater number of expectations and beliefs to consider than unicultural peoples.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are difficult conditions to manage, in tandem they pose even more challenges to public health programs in identifying coinfection to ensure that all TB cases are treated to completion of therapy (COT). The purpose of this study was to test variables that predicted COT among the HIV/TB coinfected population of non-Hispanic, U.S.-born Blacks alive at the time of diagnosis. Social determinants of health were the theoretical foundation used to guide the study based on data from the Report of Verified Cases of TB (RVCT) between 2009 and 2014. Relationships were tested between ethnic/racial group membership and the likelihood of COT, and whether any association to COT was moderated by COT eligibility; a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calculated algorithm considering disease severity, site, age, and disease complexity. The research design was a longitudinal quantitative approach using binary logistic regression to identify correlated variables associated with COT in the final model. The results showed no statistically significant differences among racial/ethnic groups, age, and gender for COT. COT was moderated by COT eligibility; odds ratio (5.4 - 11.6) times more likely to complete therapy. This study supports positive social change for programs by providing data driven outcomes to providers that support outreach, patient education, and disease prevention. In addition, this research describes an evaluation metric based on performance to set a foundation for collaboration among partners who manage other comorbidities in the United States.

Abstract:
Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC) has emphasized the need to consider multicultural and social justice factors into all aspects of the counseling profession. Consistent with the MSJCC guideline, it is essential that counselors provide developmentally and culturally responsive interventions when working with children from diverse backgrounds. Adlerian play therapy is a unique approach in which counselors incorporate basic tenets of individual psychology and premise of play therapy to help children work through different types of emotional or behavioral issues. This chapter provides an overview of the effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on children's mental health, particularly the multitude of effects on Hispanic children. The author then illustrates the application of Adlerian play therapy from MSJCC's perspective to work with a Hispanic boy exposed to a high level of ACEs.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Graduated elastic compression stockings are a frequently prescribed therapy for cardiovascular conditions with established benefit. However patient compliance remains low owing to significant difficulty donning the device, discomfort and poor fit. Based on end-user feedback, a novel compression device (CompressRite CR) to facilitate one handed application with minimal use of upper extremity strength was compared to Jobst stocking (Control). Methods: An open, prospective, single-center study was done in in volunteers and in-patients. Study subject’s lower extremities were clinically classified by a blinded vascular specialist. Pressure readings were obtained using a pressure sensor in standing position every 5 minutes during two 30-minute sessions using CR and Control. Results: Ninety study subjects (82 healthy volunteers, 8 in-patients, 34% males, 66% females, 70% White, 22% African American, %7 Asian, 1% Hispanic) completed the study. Clinical vascular classification revealed 31% C0, 18% C3, 16% C1, 7% C2, 4% C4 and 22% unclassified. CR performed similar to Control in terms of pressure delivery. Calf circumference was not impacted by pressure sessions in both groups. Application time of CR was higher but removal times were similar. Qualitative feedback collected showed that CR was superior to conventional garment. Conclusion: CR appeared to be equally effective to Control graduated elastic stockings with a longer application time on first attempt but consistently higher scores for satisfaction. This may represent an attractive alternative with higher patient compliance rates.
