Developing an interactive reproductive health equity session for pre-clerkship medical students
In the United States, sexual, reproductive, and perinatal health inequities are well documented and known to be caused by a history of systemic oppression along many axes, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic position, sexual orientation, and disability. Medical schools are responsible for educating students on systems of oppression and their impact on health. Reproductive justice advocates, including lay persons, m…
“A Lack of Empathy
Racial inequities in the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) are an urgent and insidious issue, especially in the context of the national opioid overdose crisis. Medications for opioid use disorder are the standard of care and indisputably reduce morbidity and mortality from OUD. However, a racial treatment gap persists, with Black patients less likely to receive MOUD when compared to white patients. In this study, we seek to evaluate the expe…
Vicarious Racism, Direct Racism, and Mental Health Among Racialized Minority Healthcare Workers
Development and Validation of the Vicarious Racism in Healthcare Workers Scale
Piloting web-based structural competency modules among internal medicine residents and graduate students in public health
Introduction Fewer than half of internal medicine program directors report any health disparities curriculum. We piloted a web-based healthcare disparities module among internal medicine (IM) residents to test effectiveness and feasibility, compared to a convenient sample of graduate students enrolled in a public health equity course. Methods IM residents participated in an in-person session (module 1: introduction to racial and ethnic health dis…
Drug Overdose Epidemic Colliding With Covid-19
A Multicentered Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of Pain Treatment Communication Tools in Emergency Department Patients With Back or Kidney Stone Pain
Objectives. To compare the effectiveness of 3 approaches for communicating opioid risk during an emergency department visit for a common painful condition. Methods. This parallel, multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted at 6 geographically disparate emergency department sites in the United States. Participants included adult patients between 18 and 70 years of age presenting with kidney stone or musculoskeletal back pain. Participan…
Normalizing Service Learning in Medical Education to Sustain Medical Student-Led Initiatives
Medical students demonstrate their passion for participating in and improving health care both within and outside the classroom. As the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the world, medical students in the United States engaged in student-led service-learning initiatives to contribute to medicine and their local communities, including collecting and distributing personal protective equipment, creating and translating pandemic-related educational mate…
Racial and Gender Discrimination Predict Mental Health Outcomes among Healthcare Workers Beyond Pandemic-Related Stressors
Racial and gender discrimination are risk factors for adverse mental health outcomes in the general population; however, the effects of discrimination on the mental health of healthcare workers needs to be further explored, especially in relation to competing stressors. Thus, we administered a survey to healthcare workers to investigate the associations between perceived racial and gender discrimination and symptoms of depression, anxiety, posttr…

Neighborhood Violent Crime and Perceived Stress in Pregnancy
Stress has been shown to adversely affect pregnancy outcomes. Neighborhood crime rates may serve as one publicly available social determinant of health for pregnancy studies that use registry or electronic health record datasets in which individual-level stress data are not available. We sought to determine whether neighborhood violent crime incidents were associated with measured perceived stress in a largely minority, urban pregnancy cohort. We…
