The transnational mental health burden of Haiti’s alleged collapse
Background Transnational drug trafficking, political unrest, gang violence, and paramilitarism, which are pervasive in Haiti, have resulted in a mental health crisis for the broader Haitian community. This study explores the mental well-being of Haitians in Haiti and the United States by identifying barriers and facilitators to mental health through the lived experiences of men and women. Method Four Focus group discussions conducted in April and…
Photovoice for leveraging traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine amongst black adults to improve sleep health and overall health
Introduction: Average adults are recommended to have 7-8 h of sleep. However insufficient sleep (IS defined as <7 h/nightly) is associated with increased risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine (TCIM), a burgeoning area of research and practice, leverages both modern and traditional approaches to improve health. Despite TCIM's recogniti…
Ethical and Policy Implications of Racial and Ethnic Healthcare Disparities in Sleep Health
Development and Evaluation of the Clinical Trial HEalth Knowledge and Beliefs Scale (CHEKS)
Patient health literacy is vital to clinical trial engagement. Knowledge and beliefs about clinical trials may contribute to patient literacy of clinical trials, influencing engagement, enrollment and retention. We developed and assessed a survey that measures clinical trial health knowledge and beliefs, known as the Clinical trial HEalth Knowledge and belief Scale (CHEKS). The 31 survey items in CHEKS represent knowledge and beliefs about clinic…
Sleep, Classroom Behavior, and Achievement Among Children of Color in Historically Disinvested Neighborhoods
Children of color are more likely to have poor sleep health than White children, placing them at risk for behavioral problems in the classroom and lower academic performance. Few studies, however, have utilized standardized measures of both classroom behavior and achievement. This study examined whether children’s sleep (parent and teacher report) in first grade concurrently related to independent observations of classroom behavior and longitudin…
Building a Pipeline to Increase Academic Workforce Diversity to Achieve Health Equity
The disproportionately low number of under-represented minority (URM) faculty pursuing research careers is attributed partly to an inadequate pool of well-trained URM scientists. This is compounded by lower rates of successful competition for NIH funding by URM scientists. Evidence shows black scientists are 13% less likely to receive NIH funding relative to white scientists. Increasing the number of well-trained URM scientists is a highly signif…
The Moderating Effect of Physical Activity on the Relationship between Sleep and Emotional Distress and the Difference between Blacks and Whites
(1) Background: Unhealthy sleep durations (short and long sleep) are associated with emotional distress (ED). Minority populations, specifically Blacks, are more burdened with unhealthy sleep durations and ED. The ameliorative effect of physical activity (PA) on ED and sleep duration may provide insight into how to reduce the burden among Blacks and other minorities. However, it is unclear whether PA attenuates the relationship between sleep and …
Assessment of Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Hospitalization and Mortality in Patients With Covid-19 in New York City
Importance: Black and Hispanic populations have higher rates of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) hospitalization and mortality than White populations but lower in-hospital case-fatality rates. The extent to which neighborhood characteristics and comorbidity explain these disparities is unclear. Outcomes in Asian American populations have not been explored. Objective: To compare COVID-19 outcomes based on race and ethnicity and assess the assoc…
PRIDE Peer Mentor Development Program
The PMDP may be a model for higher education and academic medicine programs committed to mentoring and retaining racially/ethnically diverse faculty and ultimately contributing to reducing entrenched health disparities between majority and minority populations
Sleep Duration and Health Care Expenditures in the United States
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the average incremental health care expenditures associated with habitual long and short duration of sleep as compared with healthy/average sleep duration. DATA SOURCE: Medical Expenditure Panel Survey data (2012; N=6476) linked to the 2010-2011 National Health Interview Survey. STUDY DESIGN: Annual differences in health care expenditures are estimated for habitual long and short duration sleepers as compared with average d…
Sleep Disorders and Symptoms in Blacks with Metabolic Syndrome
Blacks with MetS reported insomnia symptoms and insomnia disorder, use of sleep aids, feeling sleepy during the day, and inadequate sleep durations. The presence of these sleep characteristics suggests that patients with MetS should be referred for further sleep assessment
Development and Evaluation of Two Abbreviated Questionnaires for Mentoring and Research Self-Efficacy
The RMMRI-9 and CRAI-19 retained the excellent psychometric properties of the longer measures. Findings support use of the shortened measures in future evaluations of PRIDE
Mentored Training to Increase Diversity among Faculty in the Biomedical Sciences
Mentees reported their career development benefited from SIPID and PRIDE participation
Perceived Neighborhood Safety Is Associated with Poor Sleep Health among Gay, Bisexual, and Other Men Who Have Sex with Men in Paris, France
Sleep disparity, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic position
A Perspective on Promoting Diversity in the Biomedical Research Workforce
Aspiring junior investigators from groups underrepresented in the biomedical sciences face various challenges as they pursue research independence. However, the biomedical research enterprise needs their participation to effectively address critical research issues such as health disparities and health inequities. In this article, we share a research education and mentoring initiative that seeks to address this challenge: Programs to Increase Div…
Neighborhood Stigma and Sleep
The primary objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between neighborhood stigma and sleep in a sample of low-income housing residents in New York City. Data were derived from the NYC Low-Income Housing, Neighborhoods, and Health Study (N = 120). Adults living in low-income housing completed a survey consisting of measures of neighborhood stigma, sleep quality, and sleep duration. Neighborhood stigma and sleep were self-reporte…
Differential increase in prevalence estimates of inadequate sleep among black and white Americans
Blacks and whites are characteristically different regarding the prevalence of inadequate sleep over the years. Temporal changes in estimates of inadequate sleep seem dependent upon individuals' race/ethnicity
Associations between inadequate sleep and obesity in the US adult population
Our findings support the hypothesis that prevalence of very short and short sleep has gradually increased over the last 32 years. Inadequate sleep was associated with overweight and obesity for each available year
