Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disease caused by consumption of gluten in people with specific genetic markers. Celiac disease affects about 1% of people worldwide and people can start having symptoms at any age. Individuals at increased risk include those with a first-degree relative who has celiac disease and those with autoimmune diseases (eg, type 1 diabetes or Hashimoto thyroiditis) and certain chromosomal conditions (Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, or Williams syndrome).
Vaccination has prevented serious illness and death in children and adults for more than 200 years. However, conflicting statements and misleading information about the benefits and risks of vaccines are becoming more common. This is especially true on the internet and social media. Many of these conflicting statements appear to come from experts, which can lead to confusion about which information to trust. Finding accurate information about vaccines is important for people trying to make healthy decisions for themselves and their families.
Religious beliefs are cited as one cause of declining vaccination rates, and religious participation has been associated with hesitancy to receive vaccines. However, many personal vaccine objections attributed to faith-based reasons are more likely matters of personal faith interpretation rather than based on the teachings or traditions of a religious community. Studies have demonstrated ways faith-based hesitancy or skepticism toward vaccines can be addressed at both the individual level and the community level. Evidence to date suggests faith-based vaccine hesitancy and may be best approached through education that addresses and accounts for the patient's spirituality, and by collaboration with organizations that are connected to patients' religious communities.
Some prescription pain medications prescribed by doctors also include a nonprescription pain medication. Therefore, to avoid taking more than the recommended amount of acetaminophen or an NSAID, it is important to tell your doctor if you are taking over-the-counter pain medications in addition to your prescription pain medication.
Objective: To assess the Uniformed Services Constipation Action Plan (USCAP) as an evidence-based, personalized, clinical action tool with pictograms to aid clinicians and families in the management of functional constipation.
Study design: The USCAP facilitates the management functional constipation by using a health literacy-informed approach to provide instructions for pharmacotherapies and lifestyle modifications. This study included part 1 (pictogram validation) and part 2 (assessment). For part 1, pictogram transparency, translucency, and recall were assessed by parent survey (transparency ≥85%, mean translucency score ≥5, recall ≥85% required for validation). For part 2, the USCAP was assessed by parents, clinical librarians, and clinicians. Parental perceptions (n = 65) were assessed using the Consumer Information Rating Form (17 questions) to gauge comprehensibility, design quality and usefulness. Readability was assessed by 5 formulas and a Readability Composite Score was calculated. Clinical librarians (n = 3) used the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool to measure understandability (19 questions) and actionability (7 questions) (>80% rating was acceptable). Suitability was assessed by clinicians (n = 34) using Doak's Suitability Assessment of Materials (superior ≥70% rating).
Results: All 12 pictograms demonstrated appropriate transparency, translucency, and recall. Parental perceptions reflected appropriate comprehensibility, design quality, and usefulness. The Readability Composite Score was consistent with a fifth-grade level. Clinical librarians reported acceptable understandability and actionability. Clinicians reported superior suitability.
Conclusions: The USCAP met all criteria for clinical implementation and future study of USCAP implementation for treating children with chronic functional constipation.
