abstract: 'Background: Prevalence of chronic diseases and unhealthy lifestyle
behaviors among the adult population of Puerto Rico (PR) is high;
however, few epidemiological studies have been conducted to address
these. We aimed to document the methods and operation of establishing a
multisite cross-sectional study of chronic diseases and risk factors in
PR, in partnership with academic, community, clinical, and research
institutions.
Methods: The Puerto Rico Assessment of Diet, Lifestyle and Diseases
(PRADLAD) documented lifestyle and health characteristics of adults
living in PR, with the goal of informing future epidemiological and
intervention projects, as well as public health, policy, and clinical
efforts to help improve the population''s health. The study was conducted
in three primary care clinics in the San Juan, PR metropolitan area.
Eligible volunteers were 30-75y, living in PR for at least 10 months of
the previous year, and able to answer interviewer-administered
questionnaires without assistance. Questions were recorded
electronically by trained interviewers, and included socio-demographic
characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, self-reported medically-diagnosed
diseases, and psychosocial factors. Waist and hip circumferences were
measured following standardized protocols. A subset of participants
answered a validated food frequency questionnaire, a legumes
questionnaire, and had medical record data abstracted. Process and
outcome evaluation indicators were assessed.
Results: The study screened 403 participants in 5 months. Of these, 396
(98\%) were eligible and 380 (94\%) had reliable and complete
information. A subset of 242 participants had valid dietary data, and
236 had medical record data. The mean time to complete an interview was
1.5 h. Participants were generally cooperative and research
collaborators were fully engaged. Having multiple sites helped enhance
recruitment and sociodemographic representation. Diagnosed conditions
were prevalent across sites. Challenges in data monitoring, interviewer
training, and scheduling were identified and corrected, and should be
addressed in future studies.
Conclusions: Epidemiological studies in PR can be successfully
implemented in partnership with multiple institutions. Effective
recruitment and implementation requires concerted planning and continued
involvement from partners, frequent quality control, brief interviews,
reasonable incentives, and thorough training/re-training of
culturally-sensitive interviewers. Further studies are feasible and
needed to help address highly prevalent chronic conditions in PR.'
