Gender Distribution of Authors of Evaluation Letters for Promotion at One Medical School
PURPOSE: Women remain underrepresented in key leadership positions and advanced ranks in academic medicine. This study examines the numbers of men and women letter writers for promotion candidates during a 5-year period across departments, tracks, ranks, and candidate gender. METHOD: A descriptive study characterized the gender of evaluation letter writers for candidates for promotion to associate or full professor at the University of Minnesota …
Associations of Psychological Well-Being With Carotid Intima Media Thickness in African American and White Middle-Aged Women
OBJECTIVES: The present cross-sectional study aimed to a) examine associations between measures of psychological well-being, specifically life satisfaction and life engagement, and intima media thickness, a subclinical marker of atherosclerosis; b) investigate if the interaction of psychological well-being and life events correlated with intima media thickness; and c) explore these relationships across race. METHODS: A sample of 485 women (38% Af…
Diabetes, Obesity, and the Brain
Diabetes and obesity, two major public health concerns, are associated with increased risk for problems in multiple organ systems, including the central nervous system. The adverse effects of diabetes and obesity on cognitive functioning are increasingly well recognized. This special issue of Psychosomatic Medicine features the latest research linking diabetes, obesity, and brain structure, function, and metabolism and follows a special meeting o…

Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors across six African Immigrant Groups in Minnesota
Although African immigrants have different prevalence rates for CVD risk factors and health behaviors, there is a need to further explore the differences observed by country of emigration
Do Local Social Hierarchies Matter for Mental Health? A Study of Neighborhood Social Status and Depressive Symptoms in Older Adults
These findings suggest that an older adult's relative position in a local social hierarchy is associated with his/her mental health, net of absolute position
Associations of chronic individual-level and neighbourhood-level stressors with incident coronary heart disease
BACKGROUND: Several individual-level stressors have been linked to incident coronary heart disease (CHD), but less attention has focused on the influence of neighbourhood-level sources of stress. In this study we examined prospective associations of individual-level and neighbourhood-level stressors with incident CHD. METHODS: Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis participants aged 45-84 years at baseline (2000-2002) with complete data were inclu…
Perceived Stress and Change in Cognitive Function Among Adults 65 Years and Older
OBJECTIVE: Exposure to acute and chronic stress can affect learning and memory, but most evidence comes from animal studies or clinical observations. Almost no population-based studies have investigated the relation of stress to cognition or changes in cognition over time. We examined whether higher levels of perceived stress were associated with accelerated decline in cognitive function in older blacks and whites from a community-based populatio…
Predicted Long-Term Cardiovascular Risk Among Young Adults in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health
Objectives. We estimated the distribution of predicted long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk among young adults in the United States. Methods. Our data were derived from National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health participants (n = 14 333; average age: 28.9 years). We used a Framingham-derived risk prediction function to calculate 30-year risks of “hard” and “general” CVD by gender and race/ethnicity. Results. Average 30-year risks for…
Knowing Quitters Predicts Smoking Cessation in a Homeless Population
Knowing former smokers was associated with increased likelihood of achieving smoking abstinence among homeless smokers
Chronic depressive symptoms and Framingham coronary risk in HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected women
Depression is common in people with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and those with HIV, and is a risk factor for CVD-related mortality. However, little is known about whether HIV influences the relationship between depression and cardiovascular risk. A total of 526 HIV-infected and 132 uninfected women from the Women's Interagency HIV Study were included in an analysis of women who completed twice-yearly study visits over 9.5 years. CVD risk was ca…
Are there hopeless neighborhoods? An exploration of environmental associations between individual-level feelings of hopelessness and neighborhood characteristics
Neighborhood socioeconomic conditions are associated with psychosocial functioning in older black and white adults
Association between exposure to political violence and intimate-partner violence in the occupied Palestinian territory
Interactive Effects of Race and Depressive Symptoms on Calcification in African American and White Women
OBJECTIVE: To examine the cross-sectional associations among race, depressive symptoms, and aortic and coronary calcification in a sample of middle-aged women. Depressive symptoms have been associated with atherosclerotic indicators of coronary heart disease (CHD) in white women. Few studies have examined these associations in samples including African American women, or explored whether any observed associations differ by race. METHODS: Particip…
Depressive Symptoms and Increased Visceral Fat in Middle-Aged Women
Objective: To examine whether depressive symptoms are differentially associated with visceral adipose tissue (VAT), which is more metabolically active and confers greater cardiovascular risk than subcutaneous fat (SAT). Prior research has shown an association between depression and central adiposity. Mechanisms underlying the association between depression and increased cardiovascular risk remain poorly understood. Central adiposity is one potent…
Hostility and Change in Cognitive Function Over Time in Older Blacks and Whites
OBJECTIVE: To test whether the level of hostility predicted the rate of cognitive decline in a community of older blacks and whites and whether the association varied as a function of race. METHODS: Over 4800 persons from a defined community in Chicago completed up to three structured interviews at approximately 3 year intervals over a period of up to 8.8 years (mean = 4.4 years). At the baseline interview, hostility was assessed with 8-items fro…
Hostility Is Associated With Visceral, But Not Subcutaneous, Fat in Middle-Aged African American and White Women
Objective: To examine the cross-sectional association between hostility and measures of abdominal fat (visceral, subcutaneous) in middle-aged African American and white women. Because fat-patterning characteristics are known to differ by race, we were particularly interested in examining whether these associations were similar for women of both racial/ethnic groups. Methods: Participants were 418 (45% African American, 55% white) middle-aged wome…
The association of forgiveness and 12-month prevalence of major depressive episode
Research suggests that gender differences in interpersonal orientations may differentially predispose women and men to depression. While women tend to be more interdependent and show interpersonal depressive styles, men are more independent and show self-critical styles. Forgiveness is one religious/spiritual, interpersonal variable that has received very little attention in the literature on depression. Hence, the purpose of this study was to ex…
Associations Between Depressive Symptoms and Inflammatory/Hemostatic Markers in Women During the Menopausal Transition
Objective: To test whether depressive symptoms are related to inflammatory and hemostatic markers in women approaching menopause. Methods: A total of 3292 women enrolled in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) were followed for five years and had measures of Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression and high sensitivity C-reactive protein, Factor VIIc, fibrinogen, plasminogen activator inhibitor Type 1(PAI-1), and tissue-type pl…
Chronic Exposure to Everyday Discrimination and Coronary Artery Calcification in African-American Women
Chronic exposure to discrimination may be an important risk factor for early coronary calcification in African-American women. This association appears to be driven by exposure to discrimination from multiple sources, rather than exposure to racial/ethnic discrimination alone
Psychosocial Factors and Cardiovascular Diseases
Rapidly accruing evidence from a diversity of disciplines supports the hypothesis that psychosocial factors are related to morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular diseases. We review relevant literature on (a) negative emotional states, including depression, anger and hostility, and anxiety; (b) chronic and acute psychosocial stressors; and (c) social ties, social support, and social conflict. All three of these psychosocial domains have be…
Do Depressive Symptoms Predict Declines in Physical Performance in an Elderly, Biracial Population
OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether depressive symptoms, assessed by the 10-item Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), predicted change in physical function in elderly adults. METHODS: Participants were from a biracial, population-based sample of adults aged 65 and older (N: 4069; 61% black; 61% female). Physical function was assessed as a summary performance measure of tandem stand, measured walk, and repeated chair stand (…
Depressive Symptoms and Mortality Risk in a National Sample
OBJECTIVE: We examined the association between depressive symptoms and all-cause mortality in a population sample. Published findings on the relation between depressive symptoms and mortality risk point to an inconsistent association and one that is likely influenced by health status. Few studies have assessed this relation in randomly selected population samples. METHODS: Participants were 3617 noninstitutionalized adults, age 25 years or older,…
