Does Race/Ethnicity Explain Regional Inequities in Child Food Insufficiency During the Second Year of the COVID-19 Pandemic?
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Historically, food insecurity prevalence was higher in the U.S. Southern region than in other regions, particularly among children, but it is not known if the COVID-19 pandemic affected this situation. Our objectives were to (1) assess regional inequities in child food insufficiency during the second year of the pandemic between Deep South states (Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Sout......

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Early Childhood Obesity: Growth Trajectories in Body Mass Index
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 129-137 - 2015
The aims of this study are to describe growth trajectories in the body mass index (BMI) among the major racial and ethnic groups of US children and to identify predictors of children’s BMI trajectories. The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Birth Cohort (ECLS-B) was used to identify predictors of BMI growth trajectories, including child characteristics, maternal attributes, home practices related......
Socioeconomic Status, Preeclampsia Risk and Gestational Length in Black and White Women
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 1182-1191 - 2019
Higher socioeconomic status (SES) has less impact on cardio-metabolic disease and preterm birth risk among Black women compared to White women, an effect called “diminishing returns.” No studies have tested whether this also occurs for pregnancy cardio-metabolic disease, specifically preeclampsia, or whether preeclampsia risk could account for race-by-SES disparities in birth timing. A sample of 7......
Burden of Illness, Primary Care Use, and Medication Utilization among US-México Border Children with Wheezing
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 594-602 - 2019
Among high-risk, underserved populations, such as children living along the US-México border, suffering from asthma-like symptoms without an asthma diagnosis can result in a high burden of illness. We estimated the prevalence of physician-diagnosed and possible undiagnosed asthma among students with histories of wheezing in the US-México border community of El Paso, Texas, and evaluated their burd......
Obesity and Related Chronic Health Conditions as Predictors of Motivation to Engage in Healthy Eating Behaviors Among Black Adults
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 102-109 - 2014
Blacks in the USA have a high prevalence of obesity and therefore suffer disproportionately from obesity-related chronic health conditions. Eating a poor diet is a major contributor to obesity and obesity-related chronic health conditions (e.g., heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes) in Blacks. Having medical concerns has been identified in earlier research to be a motivator to eat a health......
Beyond the Window: Patient Characteristics and Geographic Locations Associated with Late Prenatal Care in Women Eligible for 17-P Preterm Birth Prevention
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 563-569 - 2019
To reduce the risk of recurrence, women with a history of spontaneous preterm birth (PTB) are recommended to receive 17-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17-P) injections starting by the 20th week of pregnancy. In women eligible for 17-P, we aimed to identify patient factors and geospatial locations associated with increased risk of presentation beyond 20 weeks gestation. We conducted a secondary anal......
Comorbid Conditions and Driving Status Among Older Low-Income African Americans
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 1228-1232 - 2019
While driving is an important instrumental activity of daily living (ADL), older adults belonging to low-income racial minorities make up a large proportion of never-drivers who utilize alternative modes of transportation (Babulal et al., Geriatrics 3, 2018; Choi and Mezuk, J Appl Gerontol 32:902–912, 2013). Our study is a comparative analysis of comorbid health conditions among older drivers and ......
Racial/Ethnic Differences in Association Between Medicaid Expansion and Causes and Costs of Readmission After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 11 - Trang 101-109 - 2023
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the relative frequency of leading causes and total associated costs of readmission after acute ischemic stroke changed with Medicaid expansion, and how these changes differed by racial/ethnic group. We used a difference-in-differences approach to compare changes in the relative frequency of leading causes of unplanned 30-day readmission and to exami......
Association of Client and Provider Race with Approaches Pursued by Social Workers for Reducing Firearm Access
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-12 - 2024
Social workers assess and intervene to prevent harm among clients at risk of harm to self (HTS) and harm to others (HTO) with a firearm. This study sought to assess the impact of client race on social workers’ approaches to reduce firearm access when they weighed voluntary (e.g., store out-of-home) and involuntary (e.g., extreme risk protection order) removal methods. We considered the role of soc......
