Structural racism and racial health disparities at the state level: A latent variable approach
Conclusions This research provides further evidence that structural racism is a fundamental cause of racial health disparities and that to repair these inequities, macro-level changes in societal structures, institutions, resource allocation, representation, and power will be necessary.PMID:37500328 | DOI:10.1016/j.jnma.2023.07.003

Infant Deaths and Mortality from Gun Violence: Causal or Casual?
CONCLUSIONS: In NYC, non-Hispanic black IM declined significantly despite increasing income inequality and was strongly correlated with gun-related assault mortality and other major causes of death. These data are compatible with the hypothesis that activities related to overall population health, including those pertaining to gun-related homicide, may provide clues to reducing IM. Analytic epidemiological studies are needed to test these and other hypotheses formulated from these descriptive data. PMID: 29173931 [PubMed - in process]
