“…However, the modest gain in this pilot provides the impetus to implement a larger scale intervention with longer and more in-depth educational sessions as recommended by the participants. Similar to this study, several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of community-engaged health education in increasing knowledge of CVD (Brewer et al, 2017;Daniels et al, 2012), mental health (Ann Hall et al, 2011;Fuller et al, 2012), diabetes (Bertera, 2014;Embry et al, 2013;Peña-Purcell et al, 2015), and prostate cancer (Boehm et al, 1995;Linnan et al, 2014;Sandiford & D'Errico, 2016) among African Americans. A critical element is the utilization of existing social institutions and structures in the AA community to implement these health promotion programs.…”

African American (AA) men continue to experience worse health outcomes compared to men of other races/ethnicities. Community-based interventions are known to be effective in health promotion and disease prevention. The program objectives were to (a) increase knowledge and risk awareness of targeted conditions, (b) change health-care-seeking attitudes toward regular primary care among AA men, and (c) improve their lifestyle-related health behaviors by leveraging the influence of women in their lives. The community-engaged educational intervention targeted both men and women and included eight 90-min sessions per cohort. Topics included prostate cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, mental health, health-care access, and healthy lifestyle. Sessions were both didactic and interactive. A pre-/post-intervention questionnaire assessed knowledge. Interviews were conducted with male participants and a focus group discussion (FGD) with women to assess program impact. Interview and FGD transcripts were analyzed for themes and recommendations. Major themes were—increased knowledge/awareness of risk associated with chronic conditions, change in health-care-seeking attitudes, increased self-efficacy to engage the health-care system, and lifestyle changes. Other impacts reported were building community/social support, a safe and enabling learning environment, and enhanced community health status overall. Recommendations included having extended, more in-depth sessions, targeting the younger generation, smaller cohort sizes, and more community-based health programming. Community-engaged health promotion using a cohort model as well as including women can be effective in increasing knowledge, enhancing self-efficacy, and providing the much-needed social support. These can influence health-related behaviors and thus contribute to improving health outcomes for AA men.

“…This suggests that merely encouraging screening is not sufficient and that SIDM with a discussion of the pros and cons of screening tailored to patients and their barriers is essential. 20,21 . Nurse practitioners and other providers make important contributions to initiating SIDM for PCa screening.…”

We explored potential barriers and facilitators for prostate cancer screening choices among high-risk Black men. In our sample of 264 Black men over 45 years of age living in the U.S. who met the American Cancer Society criteria for screening, we found that only 49.6% had ever been screened. We investigated potential barriers including screening intention, access to care, medical mistrust, and fatalism. Potential facilitating factors investigated were provider-patient conversations encompassing the pros and cons of screening, ethnicity taken into account, insurance, and previous prostate cancer screening. Recommendations and resources are suggested to increase screening of high-risk Black men.

“…Essa não adesão relaciona-se a estereótipos de gênero caracterizadores da masculinidade hegemônica, cuja doença indica a fragilidade do corpo e, por consequência, do seu portador. Apesar de alguns homens se apresentarem mais acessíveis ao exame do toque retal, ainda é necessária maior sensibilização em relação à promoção de sua saúde (10,18) . Um ponto essencial é a desmistificação de condições importantes, como as expressas pelo pensamento de que somente os homens com dor, ardor e desconforto ao urinar devem fazer este exame (item 8).…”

Aim: To evaluate the knowledge of adult men about promoting well-being, healthy eating and mental health in the work of men, before and after the application of educational video. Method: Descriptive, before-and-after, comparative study performed in a commercial facility within the scope of a health unit in June 2015. The sample included 20 working men. Results: The mean age was 26.8 (± 6.7) years. Only 25% performed clinical examinations annually. After video application, there was an increase in total scores (p<0.01). The sentences with increase of significant hits approached alcoholism (p<0.01, p=0.02) and hygiene (p=0.02, p=0.04). Discussion: The information of the educational video evidenced the need for clarification of the themes and importance of conducting preventive exams. Conclusion: The educational video was an accessible and promising intervention for effective health promotion, in the face of a significant improvement in knowledge assessment scores.
