Disparities in Level of Care and Outcomes Among Patients with Covid-19
Survey of Adherence with Covid-19 Prevention Behaviors During the 2020 Thanksgiving and Winter Holidays Among Members of the Covid-19 Community Research Partnership
Prevention behaviors represent important public health tools to limit spread of SARS-CoV-2. Adherence with recommended public health prevention behaviors among 20000 + members of a COVID-19 syndromic surveillance cohort from the mid-Atlantic and southeastern United States was assessed via electronic survey following the 2020 Thanksgiving and winter holiday (WH) seasons. Respondents were predominantly non-Hispanic Whites (90%), female (60%), and ≥…
The effect of broadband access on electronic patient engagement activities
OBJECTIVES: Lack of access to high-speed internet may explain disparities in the use of technologies that support electronic patient engagement (EPE). This study describes trends in how people with and without fixed broadband connectivity in urban and rural communities used EPE tools to interact with health care providers between 2014 and 2018. METHODS: We linked Federal Communications Commission fixed broadband data with the Association of Ameri…
Evaluating Racial/Ethnic Differences in Care Escalation Among Covid-19 Patients in a Home-Based Hospital
Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Health Care Setting Choice for Adults Seeking Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Testing
OBJECTIVES: Equitable access to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) testing is important for reducing disparities. We sought to examine differences in the health care setting choice for SARS-CoV-2 testing by race/ethnicity and insurance. Options included traditional health care settings and mobile testing units (MTUs) targeting communities experiencing disproportionately high coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rates. MET…
Is having any prenatal care associated with lower infant mortality in West Africa? Evidence from the Demographic and Health Surveys
Although developing countries may find it difficult to provide adequate prenatal care, it is likely that they can provide at least some. We examined associations of prenatal care with infant mortality in West Africa. We used data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (n = 57,322) and proportional hazards regression models to estimate the risk of infant mortality. Having any prenatal care was associated with lower infant mortality risk in all bu…

Using Community-Based Participatory Research to Develop Geospatial Models Toward Improving Community Health for Disadvantaged Hispanic Populations in Charlotte, NC
Racial/ethnic differences in healthcare use among patients with uncontrolled and controlled diabetes
Notable racial/ethnic disparities exist in the use of emergency services and physician offices for diabetes care. Strategies such as patient education and care delivery changes that address healthcare access issues in racial/ethnic minorities should be considered to offer better diabetes management and address diabetes disparities
Associations of Household Wealth and Individual Literacy with Prenatal Care in Ten West African Countries
Associations of government health expenditures, the supply of health care professionals, and country literacy with prenatal care use in ten West African countries
Social and health care context may influence prenatal care use. We studied associations of government health expenditures, supply of health care professionals, and country literacy rates with prenatal care use in ten West African countries, controlling for individual factors. We used data from Demographic and Health Surveys (n = 58,512) and random effect logistic regression models to estimate the likelihood of having any prenatal care and adequat…

Racial and Gender Differences in Pressure Ulcer Development Among Nursing Home Residents in the Southeastern United States
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether there is a difference in the incidence of pressure ulcers (PU) between African American (AA) and White nursing home (NH) residents in the Southeastern United States. METHODS: Data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Minimum Data Set were examined for 113,869 residents who were free of PU at NH admission during 1999-2002. Facility and neighborhood characteristics were abstracted from the Online Surve…
