Is Omicron Showing Us the Path Ahead
Listening to the Powerless
The experiences of people with severe intellectual disabilities (SID) in local churches are rarely studied, and their voices are not being heard in the research and religious communities. This study is an attempt to narrow the gap. Through a research method that combined person-centred care and action research, this study looks to explore the experiences of three persons with SID in a Hong Kong evangelical church, and give an account of the cultu…

Social Impact Analysis of the Effects of a Telemedicine Intervention to Improve Diabetes Outcomes in an Ethnically Diverse, Medically Underserved Population
Objectives. We examined the social impact of the telemedicine intervention effects in lower– and higher–socioeconomic status (SES) participants in the Informatics for Diabetes Education and Telemedicine (IDEATel) study. Methods. We conducted a randomized controlled trial comparing telemedicine case management with usual care, with blinded outcome evaluation, in 1665 Medicare recipients with diabetes, aged 55 years or older, residing in federally …
Adherence to diabetes self care for white, African-American and Hispanic American telemedicine participants
A unique, tailored telemedicine intervention was effective in achieving improved adherence to diabetes self care. However, African-American and Hispanic American participants were less adherent than white participants at all time points despite an individualized and accessible intervention. The finding that adherence did mediate glycemic control suggests that unique interventions for minority groups may be needed to overcome this disparity
Circadian rhythm of cortisol and neighborhood characteristics in a population-based sample
Perceived racial/ethnic discrimination, smoking and alcohol consumption in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (Mesa)
Association of Optimism and Pessimism With Inflammation and Hemostasis in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (Mesa)
Objective: To investigate the association between optimism/pessimism and concentrations of seven inflammation and hemostasis markers. Optimism and pessimism are associated with cardiovascular disease mortality and progression; however, the biological mechanism remains unclear. Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), a study of 6814 persons aged 45 to 84 years with no history of clinical…
Association of Salivary Cortisol Circadian Pattern With Cynical Hostility
OBJECTIVE: To determine if cynical hostility is associated with alterations in diurnal profiles of cortisol. Hostility has been linked to cardiovascular disease but the biological mechanisms mediating this association remain unknown. METHODS: Up to 18 measures of salivary cortisol taken over 3 days were obtained from each of 936 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). Cynical hostility was measured using an eight-item su…
Neighborhood Characteristics and Hypertension
BACKGROUND: : The goal of this study was to investigate cross-sectional associations between features of neighborhoods and hypertension and to examine the sensitivity of results to various methods of estimating neighborhood conditions. METHODS: : We used data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis on 2612 individuals 45-85 years of age. Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure above 140 mm Hg, diastolic pressure above 90 mm Hg,…

Associations of Acculturation and Socioeconomic Status With Subclinical Cardiovascular Disease in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Objectives. We assessed whether markers of acculturation (birthplace and number of US generations) and socioeconomic status (SES) are associated with markers of subclinical cardiovascular disease—carotid artery plaque, internal carotid intima-media thickness, and albuminuria—in 4 racial/ethnic groups. Methods. With data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (n = 6716 participants aged 45–84 years) and race-specific binomial regression mo…
Telephone Outreach to Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening in an Urban Minority Population
Objectives. We compared the effectiveness of a telephone outreach approach versus a direct mail approach in improving rates of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in a predominantly Black population. Methods. A randomized trial was conducted between 2000 and 2003 that followed 456 participants in the New York metropolitan area who had not had recent CRC screening. The intervention group received tailored telephone outreach, and the control group re…
Patient Preferences and Adherence to Colorectal Cancer Screening in an Urban Population
We measured patient preferences for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening strategies and actual receipt of alternative CRC screening tests among an urban minority sample participating in an intervention study. The fecal occult blood test was the most preferred test, reportedly owing to its convenience and the noninvasive nature. For individuals who obtained a test that was other than their stated preference (41.1%), reasons for this discordance may b…
Barriers to Colorectal Cancer Screening With Fecal Occult Blood Testing in a Predominantly Minority Urban Population
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States.1 Appropriate screening can reduce incidence of and mortality from colorectal cancer.2–5 The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends that all average-risk individuals aged 50 years and older receive colorectal cancer screening.6 The American Cancer Society recommends several acceptable approaches to screening, including an annual 3-card home fecal occult blood…
Preventive Services Among Medicare Beneficiaries With Supplemental Coverage Versus HMO Enrollees, Medicaid Recipients, and Elders With No Additional Coverage
BACKGROUND: Studies conducted when Medicare began to cover preventive services, found that beneficiaries with supplemental insurance were much more likely to have such services than those without additional coverage. OBJECTIVE: To examine preventive services among Medicare beneficiaries with supplemental insurance, Medicaid, health maintenance organization (HMO) enrollees, and those without additional insurance. RESEARCH DESIGN: Analysis of the 1…
Differences in Functional Status of Hispanic versus Non-Hispanic White Elders
Given the projected growth of minority elders, policymakers and planners will need to consider race and ethnic differentials in functional status in determining future medical and social service needs
Prevalence and social correlates of cardiovascular disease risk factors in Harlem
OBJECTIVES: This study examined the prevalence, social correlates, and clustering of cardiovascular disease risk factors in a predominantly Black, poor, urban community. METHODS: Associations of risk factor prevalences with sociodemographic variables were examined in a population-based sample of 695 men and women aged 18 to 65 years living in Central Harlem. RESULTS: One third of the men and women were hypertensive, 48% of the men and 41% of the …

Correlates of nonadherence to hypertension treatment in an inner-city minority population
OBJECTIVE. Adherence to treatment is a key factor in achieving blood pressure control among hypertensives. We examined correlates of nonadherence to hypertension treatment in an inner-city minority population. METHODS. Subjects (n = 202) were interviewed as part of a case-control study of severe, uncontrolled hypertension conducted in two New York City hospitals in 1989-91. All subjects were African American or Hispanic. Self-reported nonadherenc…
