An mHealth Intervention With Financial Incentives to Promote Smoking Cessation and Physical Activity Among Black Adults: Protocol for a Feasibility Randomized Controlled Trial.
JMIR Res Protoc
January 2025
University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma City, OK, United States.
Background: Black adults in the United States experience disproportionately high rates of tobacco- and obesity-related diseases, driven in part by disparities in smoking cessation and physical activity. Smartphone-based interventions with financial incentives offer a scalable solution to address these health disparities.
Objective: This study aims to assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a mobile health intervention that provides financial incentives for smoking cessation and physical activity among Black adults.

General Medical Department, Tongji Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei, China.
Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by a range of symptoms that often cluster together, impacting the quality of life (QoL) of affected individuals.
Objective: To delineate the composition of symptom clusters in patients with SLE and analyze their correlation with QoL, thus providing a basis for symptom management.
Methods: Using convenience sampling, 201 patients were recruited.

Mott Children's Hospital (Dr Walling); and School of Social Work, University of Michigan (Dr Zhang), Ann Arbor; and College of Nursing, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville (Dr Barton).
Background: Most studies to date exploring facilitators and barriers to adolescent and young adults' (AYAs') participation in clinical trials have been focused on external factors to AYAs' participation or recruitment strategies.
Objective: The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to determine AYA cancer survivors' preferences for oncology symptom management clinical trial participation.
Methods: Semistructured interviews and conjoint analysis were conducted to clarify potential attributes (eg, characteristics) and levels (eg, value of the characteristic) that may be important to AYA cancer survivors when considering clinical trial participation (n = 19).

Department of Psychiatry, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, 86 Olympic-ro 43-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, 05505, Korea.
We conducted a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study using an online survey to explore the personality traits of volunteers in Lebanon and examine their relationship with work engagement, psychological status, resilience, and public service motivation. A total of 270 volunteers were recruited through social media platforms. The survey included general questions about volunteering, Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 items (UWES-9), the Big Five Personality Inventory-10 (BFPI-10), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), the Public Service Motivation (PSM), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-2 (CD-RISC2).

Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection is marked by an excessive inflammatory response, leading to elevated production of pro-inflammatory cytokines through activation of intracellular pathways like mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Viruses can use the MAPK signaling pathway to their advantage, but the relationship of this pathway to the severe SARS-CoV-2 period has not been fully elucidated. MAP2K4 is involved in the MAPK signaling pathway and affects cellular processes such as cell-cell junction, cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.
