Relationship Between Neighborhood Socioeconomic Disadvantage and Severe Maternal Morbidity and Maternal Mortality
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that residence within disadvantaged neighborhoods may contribute to SMM/MM even after adjusting for patient-level factors. Measures such as ADI can help identify the most vulnerable populations and provide points to intervene.PMID:36388861 | PMC:PMC9590600 | DOI:10.18865/ed.32.4.293 (Source: Ethnicity and Disease)

Factors Associated with Anticoagulation Initiation for New Atrial Fibrillation in an Urban Emergency Department
CONCLUSION: More than half of ED patients with new AF eligible for AC were initiated on it. Work to improve AC utilization among patients with new AF who left AMA from ED and those who prefer to communicate in a non-English language may be warranted.PMID:36388863 | PMC:PMC9590604 | DOI:10.18865/ed.32.4.325 (Source: Ethnicity and Disease)

Advancing the Science of Implementation for Resource-Limited Settings through Bidirectional Learning Around Cervical Cancer Screening
Ethn Dis. 2022 Oct 20;32(4):269-274. doi: 10.18865/ed.32.4.269. eCollection 2022 Fall.ABSTRACTIn 2020, the highest rates of cervical cancer incidence and mortality were reported in Asian and African regions of the world. Across the globe, growing evidence confirms cancer disparities among racial and ethnic minorities, low socioeconomic status groups, sexual and gender minorities, uninsured individuals, and rural residents. Recognition of these stark disparities has led to increased global efforts for improving screening rates overall and, in medically underserved populations, highlighting the urgent need for research to in...

A Qualitative Analysis on Sexual and Reproductive Health Needs and Issues During COVID-19 Using a Reproductive Justice Framework
Ethn Dis. 2022 Oct 20;32(4):357-372. doi: 10.18865/ed.32.4.357. eCollection 2022 Fall.ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated existing health inequities, further exposing the challenges in meeting the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs, particularly for Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC). We interviewed 11 key informants through three focus groups to explore barriers and pathways to SRH care for BIPOC during COVID-19 in the United States. Reimagining reproductive health practices requires holistic practices and multisector pathways, a comprehensive reproductive justice approach. This includes intervent...

Skin Tone, Race/Ethnicity, and Gender Differences in BMI among New US Immigrants
In this study, we use the New Immigrant Survey and interactions to examine how skin tone and race/ethnicity - alongside gender - jointly pattern BMI among Legal Permanent Residents. Our approach allows for the analysis of BMI among multiple racial/ethnic immigrant groups, while considering skin tone. Our results document that darker skin shades are associated with higher BMI, but only for women. Further, we also tease out the relationship between gender and race/ethnicity for BMI, which allows us to better understand this critical connection for new immigrants' health in the United States. Together, our results highlight t...

Knowledge Sharing to Reduce Toxin Exposure Risks from Harmful Algal Blooms: Global Networks and Political Barriers

Examples of HAB toxin diseases with major global health impact include: ciguatera poisoning, paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP), diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), and neurotoxic (brevetoxin) shellfish poisoning (NSP). Such diseases affect communities globally and contribute to health inequalities within the United States and bey...

Establishing a Framework for Sustainable Community Action Research
This article aims to amplify the potential of the current CBPR/CPPR models through insights learned from the underserved community of Watts in south central Los Angeles. We discuss our framework that shifts the primary academic focus in the community-academia partnership from individual investigators and/or research groups to the academic institution to generate sustainable partnerships. We summarize the Community Action Research Engagement (CARE) Framework as a new set of recommended tenets to expand CBPR/CPPR. This framework can provide guidance for how universities can catalyze: 1) building trust; 2) facilitating knowle...

Factors Associated with HPV Vaccine Adherence among Latino/a Adolescents in a Rural, Texas-Mexico Border County
CONCLUSIONS: Findings indicate a relationship between Hispanic adolescents' receiving the required vaccine series for school admission and HPV vaccine initiation and completion. In resource-limited settings like federally qualified health centers, further efforts should focus on implementing best practices at both the provider level (eg, education on bundled vaccine recommendation) and practice-level (eg, outreach and support by trained immunization navigators).PMID:36388859 | PMC:PMC9590603 | DOI:10.18865/ed.32.4.275 (Source: Ethnicity and Disease)
