“…As examined in our review, CBPR-based CVD management programmes showed positive effects on clinical, behavioural, cognitive, relational, and psychological aspects. In particular, Ralston et al [30][31][32] showed that there is a longer effect in the experimental group than in the control group through repeated measurements after an intervention with an RCT design. However, while CPBR emphasises strengthening community capacity by allowing community residents to participate in decisions that affect their own health and exert in uence on the quality of life of the entire community by establishing cooperative partnerships, securing su cient resources, and promoting active participation and leadership of community members [57], none of the selected studies in our review measured the effects on community capacity.…”

“…We selected 27 studies after reviewing the full text of 134 studies; the remaining 107 studies did not meet the selection criteria. The following groups of studies were derived from the same research and hence, are considered as one study: 1) Balcazar, Rosenthal et al [23], Balcazar, de Heer et al [24], and Balcazar, Wise et al [25]; 2) Brewer, Balls-Berry et al [26] and Brewer, Morrison et al [27]; 3) Brewer, Hayes, Caron et al [28] and Brewer, Hayes, Jenkins et al [29]; and 4) Ralston, Lemacks et al [30], Ralston, Young-Clark et al [31], and Ralston, Wickrama et al [32]. Finally, the number of studies included in the review was 21.…”

“…Lynch et al [37] initiated their study on African American participants, as the pastor of an African American church requested help from local colleges for improving health care of the church members, which subsequently led to the establishment of a cooperative relationship. In Ralston et al [30][31][32], cooperative relationships with local colleges for health promotion programmes were established, being led by a church in North Florida.…”

Background. This scoping review aims to analyse the literature on community based participatory research (CBPR) -based cardio vascular disease (CVD) management programmes, examining the key elements of their development and implementation and exploring their effectiveness. Methods. This study is based on the scoping review methodology, consisted of six stages: 1) identifying the research question; 2) identifying relevant studies—search strategy; 3) study selection; 4) charting the data; 5) collating, summarising, and reporting the results; and 6) consultation exercise. The electronic databases used for the literature search were PubMed, Cochrane, and CINAHL. The search period was from 4 March to 3 April 2020. We selected studies that: 1) were published after 2000; 2) targeted community residents over the age of 18; and 3) proposed a CBPR-based CVD management programme, described its development process, or evaluated its effects based on its application. The data were extracted independently by two researchers according to the standardised form. Results. Among the key elements of such programmes, there were many cases in which community organisations played the leading role in establishing partnerships and cases in which a decision-making committee was formed. Regarding the application of the CBPR principles, community partners participated only in executing the research and not in the process of analyzing and interpreting research results. In addition, In all six RCT studies, the experimental groups showed significantly positive effects compared to the control groups. Conclusion. It is necessary to develop strategies to improve the criteria based on which CBPR principles cannot be implemented during the development and implementation of a CBPR-based CVD management programme. In addition, more attempts to verify the effectiveness of high-quality research methodology should be made when evaluating the effectiveness of programmes.

“…Faith-based dietary coaching to reduce calories, fat, and salt were also effective [ 50 ]. One study showed that church-based interventions could have long-lasting effects, up to 24 months [ 51 ]. Other successful approaches included improving access to farmer's markets and community gardens and directly providing produce or money to purchase healthy food [ 23 ••].…”

Community-Based Participatory Research to Improve Cardiovascular Health Among US Racial and Ethnic Minority Groups

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Purpose of Review This review aims to assess the contemporary community-based participatory research (CBPR) literature seeking to improve the cardiovascular health of racial and ethnic minority groups in the USA with a higher burden of cardiovascular risk factors and social determinants of health. It summarizes recent CBPR studies based on the American Heart Association Life’s Simple 7 (LS7) framework, delineating seven modifiable health behaviors and clinical factors to promote cardiovascular health. Recent Findings Although limited in quantity, studies demonstrated preliminary effectiveness in improving individual and a composite of LS7 indicators by employing strategies centered around fortifying social networks, integrating group activities, leveraging technology, incorporating faith-based and spiritual practices, and implementing changes to the built environment. Summary Future directions for investigators engaged in CBPR include building on the existing body of evidence through more comprehensive studies, scaling effective interventions, and translating CBPR findings to influence health policy to better address health disparities.

“…Further, additional analyses showed that the treatment group compared with the comparison group had a decreasing trend in LDL from baseline to 24 months [ 22 ]. For the total sample, F/V intake increased and fat consumption decreased across phases, with significant F/V increases for the treatment group between phase 1 and phase 3 [ 23 ]. In addition, body mass index (BMI) decreased across the four phases, and systolic BP decreased from phase 1 to phase 3 [ 22 ].…”
