    Open AccessFawsia Osman, Cherry Jiang et al.ARTICLEJournal of Racial and Ethnic…2026

    BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) disproportionately affects Black individuals in the U.S., who have higher rates of complications and worse glycemic control. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in this population.

    Open AccessTiffany H Xie, Monica E Peek et al.ARTICLEJournal of Urban Health2025Referências: 1

    While there is growing awareness of discriminatory housing policies and their adverse impacts on health, little is known about how housing policy may promote health equity. We focused on the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), the largest affordable housing program in the United States, and examined how living in neighborhoods with LIHTC housing may moderate associations between elevated blood pressure and race/ethnicity in Chicago, IL.

  • Cultivating Anti-Racism Allies in Academic Medicine

    Open AccessCassandra D L Fritz, Shirlene Obuobi et al.ARTICLEHealth Equity2023

    Racial microaggressions, racially based remarks, or actions that negatively impact marginalized physicians of color (Black, Latino/a/x, and American Indian/Alaskan Natives) often go unaddressed. This article provides four strategies for how individuals and institutions can engage in anti-racism allyship: (1) be an upstander during microaggressions, (2) be a sponsor and advocate for physicians of color, (3) acknowledge academic titles and accompli…

  • Errors in Converting Principles to Protocols

    Open AccessWilliam F Parker, Govind Persad et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2022

    For much of 2021, allocating the scarce supply of Covid‐19 vaccines was the world's most pressing bioethical challenge, and similar challenges may recur for novel therapies and future vaccines. In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) identified three fundamental ethical principles to guide the process: maximize benefits, promote justice, and mitigate health inequit…

  • Amplifying Appeals to the Common Good in Covid-19 Vaccine Messaging

    Open AccessDouglas J Opel, Jennifer A Reich et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2022

    This Viewpoint highlights how appeals to self-interest as a means to encourage vaccination have come to prevail in the pandemic, and suggests a transition from this approach to appeals that reclaim a spirit of solidarity

  • Why Add “Abolition” to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Social Care Framework

    Open AccessLaura M Gottlieb, Stacy Tessler Lindau et al.ARTICLEThe AMA Journal of Ethic2022

    Abundant evidence demonstrates that enduring, endemic racism plays an important role in determining patient health. This commentary reviews a patient case about disease self-management and subsequent health outcomes that are shaped by social and economic circumstances. We analyze the case using a framework for social care developed in 2019 by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). We then propose that the NASEM fra…

  • Incorporating Health Equity Into Covid-19 Reopening Plans

    Emily A Largent, Govind Persad et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2021Citada por: 1Referências: 5

    California has focused on health equity in the state’s COVID-19 reopening plan. The Blueprint for a Safer Economy assigns each of California’s 58 counties into 1 of 4 tiers based on 2 metrics: test positivity rate and adjusted case rate. To advance to the next less-restrictive tier, counties must meet that tier’s test positivity and adjusted case rate thresholds. In addition, counties must have a plan for targeted investments within disadvantaged…

  • How Should Physicians Respond When Patients Distrust Them Because of Their Gender

    Open AccessMonica E Peek, Bernard Lo et al.ARTICLEThe AMA Journal of Ethic2017

    There are many reasons why gender-concordant care benefits patients and is requested by them. For training hospitals, however, such requests present challenges as well as opportunities in providing patient-centered care. Responding to a case in which a female patient who is having a routine exam refuses care from a male medical student, we discuss ethical principles involved in gender-concordant care requests, when it is appropriate to question s…
