“…Beyond increased information and awareness, cohesive neighborhoods also may provide Latina young adult immigrants with supportive social networks that improve their access to health care (Flores et al, 2022) through various mechanisms. For example, supportive social networks may normalize preventive care (e.g., cancer screenings; Pichardo et al, 2022) and encourage the avoidance of health risk behaviors (De La Rosa et al, 2010) by providing social support and encouragement from friends and loved ones to be healthy (Garcini et al, 2020). Of note, over half of the Miami-Dade population is foreign-born (54%; US Census Bureau, 2023), and 69% of Miami-Dade County identifies as Hispanic or Latino.…”

“…In line with several previous papers (Lyu and Wehby, 2022; Nelson et al. , 2022; Pichardo et al. , 2022), multinomial logistic regression was selected because it permits different coefficients across more than two categories of outcome variables, making it possible to determine the choice probabilities of different channels.…”

“…However, based on the Brant test, the null hypothesis of proportional odds was rejected (its test statistic with 22 degrees of freedom was 1270.86, indicating that the null hypothesis was rejected at the 1% level). In line with several previous papers (Lyu and Wehby, 2022;Nelson et al, 2022;Pichardo et al, 2022), multinomial logistic regression was selected because it permits different coefficients across more than two categories of outcome variables, making it possible to determine the choice probabilities of different channels. The multinomial logistic regression model for household food insecurity status and the set of explanatory variables X are as follows (Greene, 2020):…”

“…Adherence to the American Cancer Society Guidelines on Nutrition and Physical Activity for Cancer Prevention ( 1, 2 ), has been linked to lower obesity-related cancer risk ( 3–5 ). Obesity, a disease with a high burden among U.S. Hispanic/Latino adults ( 6 ), can be modified through healthful lifestyles to decrease obesity-related cancer risk ( 4, 5 ) and mortality ( 5 ) among Hispanic/Latino adults.…”

“…Obesity, a disease with a high burden among U.S. Hispanic/Latino adults ( 6 ), can be modified through healthful lifestyles to decrease obesity-related cancer risk ( 4, 5 ) and mortality ( 5 ) among Hispanic/Latino adults. Yet, adherence to these recommendations remains low among Hispanic/Latino adults ( 3–5 ). The high prevalence of obesity and adverse lifestyle behaviors in Hispanic/Latino individuals may be linked to sociocultural, economic, environmental, and structural factors that predispose individuals to poor health behaviors and risk of obesity-related cancers ( 7, 8 ).…”
