“…It was found that occupational drivers (taxi and motorcycle taxi drivers) had a lower degree of knowledge of UCS benefits than other occupation groups. This is consistent with a case study conducted by Chansukree et al (2017) on those eligible for the universal health coverage scheme and the inequality in healthcare service accessibility in Thailand. They found that different occupations contributed to different perceptions and access to the universal health coverage scheme where small-scale traders or freelancers and labor sector workers or selfemployed persons had lower access to healthcare services than other occupations.…”

The study aims to (i) investigate the knowledge and understanding of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), (ii) examine the ability of self-protection against the pandemic, and (iii) study the practices of seeking medical and healthcare services during the outbreak, focusing on informal labors from five selected districts within Bangkok, Thailand. The 360 participants of this study were queried using expert-validated questionnaires to collect data according to the study framework. One-Way ANOVA was employed for testing hypotheses. The samples with different personal factors had no statistically significant difference in the knowledge and understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic. In contrast, the workers with different academic levels showed a statistically significant difference in the extent of knowledge and understanding on self-protection against COVID-19 outbreak. The workers with different academic levels and occupations were significantly different in the extent of knowledge and understanding on rights to Universal Coverage Scheme. The recommendations were developed in various forms: actionable policy, for example, providing access to information on universal healthcare and ensuring social protection and health security; practical recommendations, such as enhancing information on self-protection against COVID-19 and providing primary healthcare services; and academic suggestions to future research.

“…33 Time and money are common barriers to healthy eating. [34][35][36][37][38] Healthy behaviors are often sacrificed when time becomes critical. Our data show that the perception of a healthy diet is positively associated with cooking more meals at home and negatively correlated with lack of time for meal preparation and higher fast-food intake.…”

Objective: We aimed to identify chiropractic students' cooking skills, perceptions of healthy eating, and influence of prior nutrition training on dietary intake. Methods: Two cohorts of incoming graduate students were surveyed to assess nutritional training prior to matriculation, perceptions of healthy eating behaviors, cooking skills, current dietary intake, and barriers to healthy eating. Using independent t tests, correlations, and descriptive statistics, data from the cohorts were assessed. Results: The response rate was 88.7% ( n = 178). Nutritional training significantly increased perception of nutritional knowledge and confidence in giving nutrition advice. Completion of at least 1 college nutrition course was associated with nearly double students' weekly fatty fish intake. Males were more likely to eat animal protein, and females preferred desserts. Modeling a healthy diet for future patients was rated as being important, yet most students consumed diets consistent with the typical American diet. The leading barriers to healthy eating included lack of time and money. Conclusion: Similar to students in other healthcare professions, incoming chiropractic students wish to model healthy behaviors but fail to apply their knowledge and attitudes to their own dietary intakes due to common barriers.

“…A previous study found that SES explained a small proportion of race/ethnic differences in diet (46). Another study focused on the gender differences in healthy eating behavior (47). Male adolescents were mostly influenced by perceived barriers, such as taste of healthy foods, convenience of including healthy foods in their daily diet, and access to affordable and healthy food options.…”

“…Male adolescents were mostly influenced by perceived barriers, such as taste of healthy foods, convenience of including healthy foods in their daily diet, and access to affordable and healthy food options. Female adolescents were mostly affected by situations, including the availability and accessibility of healthy or unhealthy foods at home, and consequences of their eating behavior (47).…”

BackgroundDietary patterns represent a broad picture of food and nutrient consumption and may be more predictive of health outcomes than individual foods and nutrients.ObjectiveWe investigated the relations among race, gender, family structure, parental socioeconomic status (SES), dietary patterns, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) profiles among adolescents in the southeastern region of the United States.MethodsA total of 743 adolescents from a cross-sectional study were divided into 4 dietary pattern groups by K-means cluster analysis. Multinomial logistic regression was performed to determine the relations among the parental SES, family structures, and dietary patterns of the adolescents. Associations between dietary patterns and CVD profiles were analyzed by multiple linear regression.ResultsFour dietary patterns were derived: “healthy” (17%), “snacks and sweets” (26%), “processed meat” (20%), and “sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) and fried food” (37%). Whites and females were more likely to have a “healthy” dietary pattern (Ps < 0.001). There were significant race/ethnicity differences in family structures, SES, and dietary patterns (Ps < 0.05). In whites, higher mother's education and father's education and occupation were associated with greater likelihood of a “healthy” dietary pattern (Ps < 0.05). Stay-at-home mother was associated with less likelihood of an “SSB and fried food” pattern (P = 0.023). In blacks, higher mother's occupation, father's education, and living with both parents were associated with more likelihood of a “healthy” dietary pattern (Ps < 0.05). Stay-at-home father was associated with less likelihood of the “snacks and sweets” (P = 0.025) and “SSB and fried food” dietary patterns (P = 0.044). Overall, adolescents with poor dietary patterns exhibited higher percentage body fat, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, fasting insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, C-reactive protein, and total triglyceride (Ps < 0.05).ConclusionsOur data suggest that family structure, parental working status, and SES are associated with the diet quality in adolescents. Moreover, “snacks and sweets,” “processed meat,” and “SSB and fried food” dietary patterns are all associated with worse CVD risk profiles.
