Preliminary Findings of a Chronic Disease Management Program in Medicare Advantage Enrollees with Mild to Moderate Kidney Disease
Early findings of a multidisciplinary CDM intervention indicate that 79% of participants with CKD Stages 1-3 by eGFR had stabilized or improved CKD status. Comparison to a randomized control group to better assess for causality and longer-term CDM program follow-up on CKD status and clinical outcomes is warranted
End-of-Life Care for Older Adults With Dementia by Race and Ethnicity and Physicians’ Role
Findings from this cohort study suggest that non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic decedents with dementia received more intensive end-of-life care despite higher rates of billed advance care planning and palliative care counseling than non-Hispanic White decedents. Observed racial and ethnic variations were not explained by differences in the physicians treating them
Applying Race and Ethnicity in Health Disparities Research
Health professionals commonly reference race and ethnicity to inform health care and administrative decisions. However, health researchers (and, arguably, society at large) misapply race and ethnicity when assuming an inherent relationship of these concepts with biological and health outcomes of interest. Misapplication of race potentially results from socially embedded identification predicated upon race essentialism, the belief that people with…

Developing Strategic and Collaborative Community–Academic Partnerships to Improve Community Health, From Moving Upstream to Getting at the Root
Community partners have experienced inequity and lack of transparency in funding practices. Funding for community partners is a critical component of community-engaged research, as it influences community trust and opportunities. We compared contextual and site-specific factors at 2 centers (in New York City; Los Angeles and Orange Counties, CA) with different community-funding approaches, which influence institutional capacity to partner with an…
Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Diabetes Prevention Outcomes
Background: To achieve health equity, interventions should yield similar effectiveness across all patient subgroups. However, the adoption of diabetes prevention strategies and successful weight loss in "real-world" Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) translational studies have varied by race and ethnicity. We examined racial and ethnic differences in diabetes prevention outcomes among study participants from the Prediabetes Informed Decisions and …

The language of Covid-19
When Resilience Becomes Risk
There is a well-established link between psychosocial risks and psychological health among African American (AA) men. Yet, the psychosocial sources and physical health consequences of resilience (i.e., the ability to maintain good health despite adversity) remain underexplored. Using data from 283 AA men in the Nashville Stress and Health Study, the present study investigated the links between psychosocial resilience and allostatic load (AL), a b…
Comparison of Leisure Time Physical Activities by Metabolic Syndrome Status among Adolescents
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases the risk of premature morbidity and mortality. Physical activity (PA) beneficially affects MetS; however, it is unclear if PA types differ among adolescents 12-15 years old, according to their MetS status. This study compared self-reported PA types by MetS status. Methods: Using the 2015-2016 National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) data, 664 adolescents self-reported PA in the pa…

Chronic Kidney Disease in Disadvantaged Populations
The Role of Vitamin D and Oxidative Stress in Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major non-communicable disease associated with high rates of premature morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of hypovitaminosis D (deficiency of 25(OH)D or 25D) is greater in racial/ethnic minorities and in patients with CKD than the general population. Low 25D is associated with bone and mineral disorders as well as immune, cardiometabolic and cardiovascular (CV) diseases. Thus, it has been suggested that low …
