  • Differential Effects of an Emergency Department-to-Home Care Transitions Intervention in an Older Adult Population

    Rebecca K Green, Kenneth J Nieser et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2023References: 45

    BACKGROUND: Older adults frequently return to the emergency department (ED) within 30 days of a visit. High-risk patients can differentially benefit from transitional care interventions. Latent class analysis (LCA) is a model-based method used to segment the population and test intervention effects by subgroup. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to identify latent classes within an older adult population from a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect…

  • Race, Ethnicity, Neighborhood Characteristics, and In-Hospital Coronavirus Disease-2019 Mortality

    Jianhui Hu, Christie M Bartels et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2021References: 13

    BACKGROUND: Despite many studies reporting disparities in coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) incidence and outcomes in Black and Hispanic/Latino populations, mechanisms are not fully understood to inform mitigation strategies. OBJECTIVE: The aim was to test whether neighborhood factors beyond individual patient-level factors are associated with in-hospital mortality from COVID-19. We hypothesized that the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), a neighbor…

  • Making Neighborhood-Disadvantage Metrics Accessible — The Neighborhood Atlas

    Amy Kind, Amy J H Kind et al.ARTICLENew England Journal of Medicine2018

    Interview with Dr. Amy Kind on a new tool for incorporating data on neighborhood disadvantage into research, policy, and health interventions. (15:45)Download Better understanding of variations in neighborhood disadvantage could lead to improved insight into the sociobiologic mechanisms that underlie health disparities, which could, in turn, facilitate the development of improved therapeutics and interventions.

  • Overcoming the Challenges of Unstructured Data in Multisite, Electronic Medical Record-based Abstraction

    Brock Polnaszek, Andrea Gilmore-Bykovskyi et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2016References: 27

    BACKGROUND: Unstructured data encountered during retrospective electronic medical record (EMR) abstraction has routinely been identified as challenging to reliably abstract, as these data are often recorded as free text, without limitations to format or structure. There is increased interest in reliably abstracting this type of data given its prominent role in care coordination and communication, yet limited methodological guidance exists. OBJECT…

  • Neighborhood Socioeconomic Disadvantage and 30-Day Rehospitalization

    Open AccessAmy Kind, Amy J H Kind et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Internal Medicine2014

    BACKGROUND: Measures of socioeconomic disadvantage may enable improved targeting of programs to prevent rehospitalizations, but obtaining such information directly from patients can be difficult. Measures of U.S. neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage are more readily available but are rarely used clinically. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage at the census block group level, as measured by the…
