Abstract

Background and Objectives Insufficient ethnoracial diversity is a pervasive challenge in Alzheimer's disease (AD) research. The Recruitment Innovations for Diversity Enhancement (RIDE) is grounded in the premise that culturally informed narratives of research participation can inspire individuals from a given culture-sharing group to consider research enrollment. This study examines factors associated with interest in AD research among Black or African American adults following exposure to RIDE narrative campaign materials. Research Design and Methods A community-based sample of 500 Black or African American adults viewed RIDE narrative materials online and completed a survey of perceptions about research, AD risk, and likelihood of enrolling in AD research. Logistic regression examined predictors and mediators of self-reported likelihood of participating in AD research. Results Most (72%) participants reported interest in being contacted for AD research opportunities. After controlling for key variables, prior experience with clinical research and trust in medical researchers emerged as independent predictors of likelihood of enrolling in AD research. Perceived burden of AD research partially mediated the effects of prior research experience and trust on likelihood of enrollment. Perceived benefits of AD research also played a mediating role, accounting for over one third of the effect of trust on likelihood of enrollment. Discussion and Implications This study advances the field's understanding of how narrative may function to enhance diversity in AD research. Findings suggest that participant narratives should address experiences regarding the burdens and potential benefits of AD research participation as these factors may influence decisions leading to subsequent research enrollment.

14. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Telehealth Augmented With a CBT Smartphone Application to Address Type 2 Diabetes Self-Management: A Randomized Pilot Trial

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of phone-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) combined with an adjunctive smartphone application CBT MobileWork-DM©to improve self-management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods: Participants were 12 patients with T2DM on antihyperglycemic medication and had an A1C level of 8 or greater. A randomized controlled pilot study assessed treatment as usual (TAU) T2DM care versus a phone-delivered CBT (6, 8, or 12 weekly sessions) augmented with a CBT skills practice smartphone application. The CBT telehealth intervention addressed T2DM self-management and diabetes distress. Electronic and self-report medication taking, diabetes-related distress, and A1C were assessed at baseline and post-intervention.Results: After 16 weeks, a decrease in A1C and distress levels was observed in all 3 CBT phone groups and TAU group. The group with the most improvement was the 12-week CBT group, which had the greatest mean decrease in A1C (−2.33) and diabetes distress (−31.67). The TAU group exhibited a mean decrease of −2.15 and −21 for A1C and diabetes distress, respectively. The overall rate of completion for phone CBT sessions across the 3 CBT groups was 83%.Conclusion: This study demonstrates that telehealth CBT augmented with a smartphone application is feasible and acceptable. Patients demonstrated improvements in both T2DM management and distress.

20. Assessing Usual Care in Clinical Trials

Author

Remien, Robert H., Wagner, Glenn, Schneiderman, Neil, Banderas, Julie W., Reynolds, Nancy, Rosen, Marc I., Tamres, Lisa K., Erlen, Judith A., Liu, Honghu, Bangsberg, David R., and Golin, Carol E.

Abstract

Researchers designing clinical trials often specify usual care received by participants as the control condition expecting that all participants receive usual care regardless of group assignment. The assumption is that the groups in the study are affected similarly. We describe the assessment of usual care within the 16 studies in MACH 14, a multi-site collaboration on adherence to antiretroviral therapy. Only five of the studies in MACH 14 assessed usual care. Assessment protocols varied as did the timing and frequency of assessments. All usual care assessments addressed patient education focused on HIV, HIV medications, and medication adherence. Our findings support earlier work that calls for systematic assessments of usual care within the study design, inclusion of descriptions of usual care in reports of the study, and the influence of usual care on the experimental condition in clinical trials.

Abstract

Background and Purpose: This study examined the psychometric properties of a 9-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-9) adapted specifically for patients with HIV/AIDS. Methods: We used data from two randomized controlled trials investigating telephone-delivered interventions for improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy to assess reliability (Cronbach’s α and Pearson’s product correlation) and validity (convergent and concurrent) of the MMAS-9. Results: The internal consistency (Cronbach’s α) of the MMAS-9 was.66 (study 1) and.69 (study 2); 3-month test–retest reliability (Pearson’s correlation) ranged from.50 to.74. Validity was supported by associations with electronic event monitored adherence, social support, depressive symptoms, self-efficacy, stigma, regimen complexity, and impact of side effects in the hypothesized direction. Conclusions: The adapted MMAS-9 demonstrated good convergent validity but somewhat lower internal consistency reliability than other reports. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
