Past research shows that structural racism contributes to disparities in cardiometabolic health among racially/ethnically minoritized populations.
This cross-sectional study examined the correlation between census tract-level racialized economic segregation and child health metrics among a racially and ethnically diverse cohort of 350 children (ages 6.5-13.8) from Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN.
A consistent cardiometabolic and cortisol outcome gradient was observed across the index of concentration at the extremes tertiles, such that health risk factors increased as tract privilege decreased.
Racialized economic segregation was associated with less favorable child health outcomes, underscoring the potential importance of place-based interventions for promoting children's health.
过去的研究表明,结构性种族主义导致了种族/族裔少数群体在心脏代谢健康方面的差异。
这项横断面研究调查了明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗市350名年龄在6.5至13.8岁之间、种族和族裔各异的儿童队列中,普查区层面的种族化经济隔离与儿童健康指标之间的相关性。
在极端三分位数的集中度指数上观察到一致的心脏代谢和皮质醇结果梯度,即随着社区特权的降低,健康风险因素增加。
种族化经济隔离与儿童健康结果较差有关,强调了基于地点的干预措施对促进儿童健康的潜在重要性。
