The Influence of Sugar-Sweetened Beverage Warnings: A Randomized Trial of Adolescents' Choices and Beliefs.
California, New York, and the cities of San Francisco and Baltimore have introduced bills requiring health-related warning labels for sugar-sweetened beverages. This study measures the extent to which these warning labels influence adolescents' beliefs and hypothetical choices. ⋯ Health-related warning labels on sugar-sweetened beverages improved adolescents' recognition of the sugar content of such beverages and reduced hypothetical choices to buy sugar-sweetened beverages.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
All Nations Breath of Life: A Randomized Trial of Smoking Cessation for American Indians.
American Indians have the highest cigarette smoking prevalence of any racial/ethnic group in the U.S. There is currently no effective empirically based smoking-cessation program for American Indians. The purpose of this study was to determine if a culturally tailored smoking-cessation program, All Nations Breath of Life (ANBL), is more effective than a non-tailored cessation program among American Indian smokers. ⋯ The culturally tailored smoking-cessation program ANBL may or may not be an effective program in promoting cessation at 12 weeks and 6 months. Participants in the culturally tailored ANBL program were approximately twice as likely to quit smoking at 6 months compared with the CBP program, using self-reported abstinence.
