16. The 'Families First' Program to Prevent Child Abuse: Results of a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial in West Java, Indonesia

Author

Ruiz-Casares, Mónica, Thombs, Brett D., Mayo, Nancy E., Andrina, Michelle, Scott, Susan C., and Platt, Robert William

Abstract

The "Families First" parenting program is a 10-week paraprofessional-administered adaptation of the Positive Discipline in Everyday Parenting program for West Java, Indonesia. It has not been tested in a randomized controlled trial. The objective was to evaluate the effects of "Families First" on physical and emotional punishment. We conducted a cluster randomized controlled trial and randomly assigned 20 rural and urban villages in West Java, Indonesia, to intervention or waitlist. Caregivers of children aged 0-7 years in intervention villages received "Families First." Between 2017 and 2018, measurements were taken before randomization, immediately post-intervention, and 6 months post-intervention. Primary outcome was presence versus absence of "caregiver-reported physical or emotional punishment" immediately post-intervention. Intention-to-treat regression models accounted for clustering within villages and were run to compare between groups. Participants and study personnel could not be blinded. There were 374 caregivers in the 10 intervention villages and 362 in the 10 waitlist villages included in the trial and in outcome analyses. The intervention did not result in a lower proportion of intervention families using punishment immediately post-intervention (odds ratio [OR] for physical or emotional punishment immediately post intervention = 1.20 (95% CI 0.79-1.82). There were no significant differences for "positive and involved parenting, setting limits, and opinion on discipline," but caregivers in the intervention group had significantly lower odds of using "positive discipline" (OR = 0.65 (95% CI 0.53-0.80). "Families First" did not prevent punishment in a setting with low levels of reported punishment but should be tested in a setting with higher levels or among people selected for risk or presence.

Abstract

Contexte : Les fractures de fragilisation sont un important probleme de sante chez les adultes ages et peuvent entrarner des incapacites, des hospitalisations et le placement en etablissement de soins de longue duree, en plus de nuire a la qualite de vie. La presente ligne directrice du Groupe d'etude canadien sur les soins de sante preventifs (le Groupe d'etude) formule des recommandations fondees sur des donnees probantes au sujet du depistage pour la prevention des fractures de fragilisation chez les personnes agees de 40 ans et plus vivant dans la collectivite qui ne sont pas sous traitement pharmacologique preventif. Methodes : Nous avons commande des revues systematiques sur les benefices et les prejudices du depistage, l'exactitude predictive des outils d'evaluation du risque, les benefices du traitement, ainsi que l'acceptabilite de celui-ci par les patients. Nous avons analyse les prejudices des traitements au moyen d'un examen rapide de revues systematiques. Nous avons en outre analyse les valeurs et les preferences des patients par l'entremise de groupes de discussion et aupres d'intervenants mobilises a certains moments cles, tout au long du projet. Nous avons utilise l'approche methodologique GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation) afin de determiner la certitude des donnees probantes pour chacune des issues cliniques ainsi que la force des recommandations, et nous avons applique les lignes directrices de l'instrument AGREE (Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation), du Guidelines International Network (GIN) et du guide de redaction Guidance for Reporting Involvement of Patients and the Public (GRIPP 2). Recommandations : Nous recommandons un depistage debutant par une estimation du risque pour la prevention des fractures de fragilisation chez les femmes de 65 ans et plus. Le depistage se fait d'abord au moyen de l'outil canadien FRAX, qui mesure le risque de fracture, sans densite minerale osseuse (DMO). Le score FRAX devrait guider la prise de decision partagee entourant les benefices et les prejudices potentiels de la pharmacotherapie preventive. Apres cette discussion, si une pharmacotherapie preventive est envisagee, les medecins devraient demander une mesure de la DMO par absorptiometrie a rayons X biphotonique (DEXA) du col du femur, puis reevaluer le risque de fracture en integrant le score T de la DMO au score FRAX (recommandation conditionnelle, donnees de faible certitude). Nous ne recommandons pas le depistage chez les femmes de 40-64 ans et les hommes de 40 ans et plus (recommandation forte, donnees de tres faible certitude). Ces recommandations s'appliquent aux personnes vivant dans la collectivite qui ne sont pas sous pharmacotherapie pour la prevention des fractures de fragilisation. Interpretation : Le depistage debutant par une estimation du risque chez les femmes de 65 ans et plus facilite la prise de decision partagee et permet aux patientes d'envisager la pharmacotherapie preventive en fonction de leur propre risque (avant DMO). Le fait de ne pas recommander le depistage chez les hommes et les femmes plus jeunes rappelle l'importance des bonnes pratiques cliniques, en vertu desquelles les medecins doivent demeurer a l'affut de tout changement de l'etat de sante des personnes qui pourrait indiquer qu'elles ont subi une fracture de fragilisation ou pourraient y etre plus sujettes., Les fractures de fragilisation surviennent lors d'un impact mineur qui normalement serait sans risque pour une ossature normale (1-3). Ces fractures surviennent parce que la structure osseuse est affaiblie (diminution [...]

Abstract

Background: Fragility fractures are a major health concern for older adults and can result in disability, admission to hospital and long-term care, and reduced quality of life. This Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care (task force) guideline provides evidence-based recommendations on screening to prevent fragility fractures in community-dwelling individuals aged 40 years and older who are not currently on preventive pharmacotherapy. Methods: We commissioned systematic reviews on benefits and harms of screening, predictive accuracy of risk assessment tools, patient acceptability and benefits of treatment. We analyzed treatment harms via a rapid overview of reviews. We further examined patient values and preferences via focus groups and engaged stakeholders at key points throughout the project. We used the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach to determine the certainty of evidence for each outcome and strength of recommendations, and adhered to Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE), Guidelines International Network and Guidance for Reporting Involvement of Patients and the Public (GRIPP-2) reporting guidance. Recommendations: We recommend 'risk assessment-first' screening for prevention of fragility fractures in females aged 65 years and older, with initial application of the Canadian clinical Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) without bone mineral density (BMD). The FRAX result should be used to facilitate shared decision-making about the possible benefits and harms of preventive pharmacotherapy. After this discussion, if preventive pharmacotherapy is being considered, clinicians should request BMD measurement using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the femoral neck, and re-estimate fracture risk by adding the BMD T-score into FRAX (conditional recommendation, low-certainty evidence). We recommend against screening females aged 40-64 years and males aged 40 years and older (strong recommendation, very low-certainty evidence). These recommendations apply to community-dwelling individuals who are not currently on pharmacotherapy to prevent fragility fractures. Interpretation: Risk assessment-first screening for females aged 65 years and older facilitates shared decision-making and allows patients to consider preventive pharmacotherapy within their individual risk context (before BMD). Recommendations against screening males and younger females emphasize the importance of good clinical practice, where clinicians are alert to changes in health that may indicate the patient has experienced or is at higher risk of fragility fracture., Fragility fractures result from a minor impact that would not damage normal bone. (1-3) These fractures occur because of weakened bone structure (low bone mass or low mineral density, often [...]

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the development and preliminary testing of a new scale assessing knowledge about melanoma risk factors and early detection/secondary prevention. Data was drawn from a longitudinal study assessing barriers and facilitators of skin self- examination among patients diagnosed with melanoma. For the current analysis, 191 patients who completed the new 9-item Knowledge About Melanoma Early Detection Scale and other study measures were included. Exploratory factor analysis with were conducted, which identified a robust scale comprised of 6 items with factor loadings ranging from .56 to .81. Higher scores on the Knowledge About Melanoma Early Detection Scale were associated with younger age and more positive attitudes about melanoma prevention, but not with biological sex, education, melanoma stage, or past self-administered and physician-provided skin checks. Further studies are needed to replicate these findings and to further establish the predictive validity of this scale and its usefulness for health research., Author(s): Adina Coroiu [sup.1] [sup.2] , Chelsea Moran [sup.3] , Linda Kwakkenbos [sup.4] , Brett D.

Abstract

Researchers increasingly use meta-analysis to synthesize the results of several studies in order to estimate a common effect. When the outcome variable is continuous, standard meta-analytic approaches assume that the primary studies report the sample mean and standard deviation of the outcome. However, when the outcome is skewed, authors sometimes summarize the data by reporting the sample median and one or both of (i) the minimum and maximum values and (ii) the first and third quartiles, but do not report the mean or standard deviation. To include these studies in meta-analysis, several methods have been developed to estimate the sample mean and standard deviation from the reported summary data. A major limitation of these widely used methods is that they assume that the outcome distribution is normal, which is unlikely to be tenable for studies reporting medians. We propose two novel approaches to estimate the sample mean and standard deviation when data are suspected to be non-normal. Our simulation results and empirical assessments show that the proposed methods often perform better than the existing methods when applied to non-normal data.
