Abstract: The epidemic of obesity among racial/ethnic minority children has been compounded by a disturbing increase in other pediatric cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia. The Pediatric Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network Cohort Study (P-ECS) was established to characterize the intergenerational factors that contribute to pediatric cardiovascular risk. The proposed Research Supplement to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research layers community-level data collection onto rich individual-level data collected by the Adult ECHORN (A-ECS) and P-ECS. The work will be conducted in a single ECHORN site (Barbados), with one aspect of the work exploring the feasibility of expanding the methods to the other ECHORN sites and developing a toolkit for expansion across the network (USVI, Puerto Rico & Trinidad). Our aims center around the concept of walkability and its impact on overall health and wellness. Our intention is to focus on detailed neighborhood characterization, subsequently linking this characterization to new data collected on individual- level health outcomes measured in the P-ECS. We will focus on both macroscale and microscale environmental features. To our knowledge, this type of neighborhood characterization has not been attempted in the Caribbean region; nor has the influence of different neighborhood characteristics on individual-level walking behavior been examined.

抽象的： 种族/族裔儿童中肥胖症的流行因以下因素而变得更加严重： 其他儿科心血管危险因素（如高血压和高血压）的令人不安的增加 高脂血症。东加勒比儿科健康结果研究网络队列 研究 (P-ECS) 的建立是为了描述有助于 小儿心血管风险。拟议的促进多样性的研究补充 健康相关研究将社区级数据收集分层到丰富的个人级数据上 由成人 ECHORN (A-ECS) 和 P-ECS 收集。这项工作将在一个单一的 ECHORN 站点（巴巴多斯），工作的一方面是探索扩大 ECHORN 站点的可行性 方法到其他 ECHORN 站点并开发用于跨网络扩展的工具包 （美属维尔京群岛、波多黎各和特立尼达）。我们的目标围绕步行的概念及其影响 关于整体健康和保健。我们的目的是关注详细的社区 特征，随后将该特征与收集的个人新数据联系起来 P-ECS 中测量的水平健康结果。我们将同时关注宏观和 微观环境特征。据我们所知，这种类型的社区 加勒比地区尚未尝试进行特征描述；也没有影响 研究了不同社区特征对个人步行行为的影响。
