Sampling recruitment | Demographic information on sample |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coronado et al., 2016 | Experimental Intervention (random sample): n=278; Control (random sample, usual care): n=261 | Women who had not obtained mammogram in the previous 2 years were recruited from 1 of 4 clinics in Sea Mar Community Health Centers. | Hispanic women ages 42–74, 92% Spanish-speaking, 81% Mexican-born, majority lived in U.S. for 10+ years, 74% uninsured. |
| Elder et al., 2017 | Experimental Intervention (random sample, physical activity group): n=217; Control (random sample, cancer screening group) n=219* | 16 Catholic churches with large Latino populations were randomized to either cancer screening or physical activity interventions. | Church-going Hispanic women, 68% 40–65, 58% household income <$2,000/month, 55% <high school completed, 77% married, 66% employed, 91% born in Mexico, 68% low acculturation, 83% overweight/obese, 48% had health insurance. |
| Fernandez et al., 2009 | Quasi Experimental Intervention (two communities): n=207; Control (two communities): n=257 | Sample was identified using EPI Sampling Quadrants Scheme. Each colonia was divided into 4 quadrants followed by door-to-door recruitment. If more than 1 woman in a household was eligible, the woman with most recent birthdate was selected. After baseline survey, only women with no mammogram in past year participated in the intervention trial. | Hispanic farmworker women, low-income, non-adherent to breast and cervical cancer screening guidelines, 50+, (48% 50–59), no prior or current cancer diagnosis. |
| Jandorf et al., 2014 | Quasi Experimental Intervention (group-based LHA intervention): n=1179; Control (diabetes prevention program): n=789 | Program sites recruited and randomized in cluster randomized study. Sites included community, faith-based, and private homes. | Hispanic women and men, country of origin (36.4% Mexico, 25% Puerto Rico, 14.7% South and Central America, 12.4% other, 11.6% born in U.S.). Overall sample had Hispanic women 18+, mammogram receipt was only measured for subset of women 40+. |
| Nuño et al., 2011 | Experimental Intervention (random sample, Promotora group education): n=183; Control (random sample, usual care): n=188 | Participants selected from census tracts with majority (>50%) Hispanic population. Homes were assigned numbers and randomly selected to identify study participants. | Post-menopausal Hispanic women 50+ (75% 50–65) residing in rural counties along the U.S.-Mexico border. Majority were Mexican-born, Spanish-speaking, and had less than an elementary school education. |
Elder used a two-group randomized trial, with physical activity as the primary intervention group and cancer screening as the attention-control group
