Historically, the American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) population in the United States has faced health disparities including greater prevalence of physical and mental health problems and high uninsured rates when compared with the non-AIAN population (1). Almost 80% of the AIAN population resides outside of reservations or land trusts and about 40% reside in rural areas (2). Rural Americans are more likely to die from preventable or selfmanageable conditions (3), and risk factors and health conditions may vary by urbanization level (4). This report examines differences in the percentage of selected health status and conditions by urbanization level between AIAN adults and all U.S. adults.
从历史上看,与非美洲原住民相比,美国的美洲印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民(AIAN)人口面临着健康差距,包括更普遍的身心健康问题和高未保险率(1)。几乎 80%的 AIAN 人口居住在保留地或土地信托之外,约 40%居住在农村地区(2)。农村美国人更有可能死于可预防或可自我管理的疾病(3),而风险因素和健康状况可能因城市化程度而异(4)。本报告检查了 AIAN 成年人和所有美国成年人在城市化水平上的某些健康状况和条件的百分比差异。
