Example measures include population density; population distribution by race, ethnicity, age, and income; income inequality by race and ethnicity; and proportion of population living below the poverty level, receiving public assistance, and female-headed or single parent families with kids. The datasets also contain a set of theoretically derived measures capturing neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage and affluence, as well as a neighborhood index of Hispanic, foreign born, and limited English.

Around 7.7% of Americans have asthma, including 20.2 million adults and 4.6 million children. This study examines asthma mortality trends and disparities across U.S. demographic and geographic groups from 1999 to 2020. A retrospective analysis was conducted using the CDC WONDER database to examine asthma-related deaths in the U.S. from 1999 to 2020. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) and crude mortality rates (CMRs) per 100,000 were calculated. Trends and annual percent changes (APCs) were assessed overall and stratified by sex, race, region, and age. From 1999 to 2020, the U.S. recorded 221 161 asthma-related deaths (AAMR: 3.07), mostly in medical facilities. Mortality declined from 1999 to 2018 (APC: −1.53%) but surged from 2018 to 2020 (APC: 28.63%). Females, NH Blacks, and NH American Indians had the highest mortality rates. Older adults (≥65) had the greatest burden, with younger groups showing notable increases post-2018. Rural areas and the West reported slightly higher rates than urban and other regions. Hawaii and the District of Columbia had the highest AAMRs, while Florida and Nevada had the lowest. Asthma-related mortality in the U.S. declined until 2018 but sharply increased from 2018 to 2020, with rises across all demographic groups, regions, and settings. Females, NH Blacks, and older adults consistently had higher mortality rates, while younger age groups showed recent alarming increases. Targeted interventions are urgently needed to address inequities and recent mortality surges.

No ethnic/racial groups experienced better access to healthcare (across different access measures from health insurance to usual source of care) compared with non-Hispanic White or White people in 2017, 2018, or 2019. The exception is Asians, where they experienced better access than White population on 2 access measures (or 14 percent) but experienced worse access than White population on 4 measures (or 29 percent). The disparity was largest comparing Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic White population . This statistic depicts the percentage of healthcare access measures for which members of select ethnic groups had better or worse access to care than White population in the U.S. in 2017, 2018, or 2019.

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent expansion of telehealth may be exacerbating inequities in ambulatory care access due to institutional and structural barriers. We conduct a repeat cross-sectional analysis of ambulatory patients to evaluate for demographic disparities in the utilization of telehealth modalities. The ambulatory patient population at Oregon Health & Science University (Portland, OR) is examined from June 1 through September 30, in 2019 (reference period) and in 2020 (study period). We first assess for changes in demographic representation and then evaluate for disparities in the utilization of telephone and video care modalities using logistic regression. Between the 2019 and 2020 periods, patient video utilization increased from 0.2% to 31%, and telephone use increased from 2.5% to 25%. There was also a small but significant decline in the representation males, Asians, Medicaid, Medicare, and non-English speaking patients. Amongst telehealth users, adjusted odds of video participation were significantly lower for those who were Black, American Indian, male, prefer a non-English language, have Medicaid or Medicare, or older. A large portion of ambulatory patients shifted to telehealth modalities during the pandemic. Seniors, non-English speakers, and Black patients were more reliant on telephone than video for care. The differences in telehealth adoption by vulnerable populations demonstrate the tendency towards disparities that can occur in the expansion of telehealth and suggest structural biases. Organizations should actively monitor the utilization of telehealth modalities and develop best-practice guidelines in order to mitigate the exacerbation of inequities.

Methods A repeat cross-sectional study was conducted of patients who utilized the ambulatory clinics at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) from June 1 through September 30, in 2019 (reference period) and 2020 (study period). The study period was chosen because it exhibited a relatively stable rate of in-person, telephone, and video ambulatory visits. The initial months of the pandemic in March through May 2020 were marked by shifting state and institutional policies that affected appointment availability. By the summer of 2020, clinics were more open to scheduling in-person visits. We chose to investigate a later, more stable time-frame for disparities because we believe that the analysis would be more indicative of ongoing trends.

Unique patient counts were extracted from ambulatory provider-led visits, defined as outpatient visits with physicians, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants. Visits modalities included in-person, video, or telephone, the latter two comprising telehealth. Patient demographics included ethnicity, race, preferred language, payer, age, and sex. The encounter-level data was aggregated by unique patient identifier into patient counts for the study period of June 1 through Sept 30, 2020. Table 1 displays unique patient counts of ambulatory care modality utilization (in-person, video, telephone, and any telehealth) for each demographic group (race, ethnicity, sex, preferred language, insurance, and age). There is also a column for total patients in that demographic group. In the main article, we performed logistic regression to evaluate the association of patient demographics with telehealth utilization. Table 2 displays unique patient counts of ambulatory care modality utilization for each demographic group only within primary care clinics.

Table 3 displays unique patient counts for each demographic group within the time periods before and during the COVID-19 pandemic: June 1 through Sept 30, 2019 and June 1 through Sept 30, 2020. In the study, we compared the proportional representation of demographic groups between before and during the pandemic to assess for overall changes in our patient population.

Traditional niche theory predicts that when species compete for one limiting resource in simple ecological settings the more fit competitor should exclude the less fit competitor. Since the advent of neutral theory ecologists have increasingly become interested both in how the magnitude of fitness inequality between competitors and stochasticity may affect this prediction. We used numerical simulations to investigate the outcome of two-species resource competition along gradients of fitness inequality (inequality in R*) and initial population size in the presence of demographic stochasticity. We found that the deterministic prediction of more fit competitors excluding less fit competitors was often unobserved when fitness inequalities were low or stochasticity was strong, and unexpected outcomes such as dominance by the less fit competitor, long-term co-persistence of both competitors or the extinction of both competitors could be common. By examining the interaction between fitness inequality and stochasticity our results mark the range of parameter space in which the predictions of niche theory break down most severely, and suggest that questions about whether competitive dynamics are driven by neutral or niche processes may be locally contingent.

Fatal police shootings in the United States continue to be a polarizing social and political issue. Clear disagreement between racial proportions of victims and nationwide racial demographics together with graphic video footage has created fertile ground for controversy. However, simple population level summary statistics fail to take into account fundamental local characteristics such as county-level racial demography, local arrest demography, and law enforcement density. Using data on fatal police shootings between January 2015 and July 2016, I implement a number of straightforward resampling procedures designed to carefully examine how unlikely the victim totals from each race are with respect to these local population characteristics if no racial bias were present in the decision to shoot by police. I present several approaches considering the shooting locations both as fixed and also as a random sample. In both cases, I find overwhelming evidence of a racial disparity in shooting victims with respect to local population demographics but substantially less disparity after accounting for local arrest demographics. I conclude the analyses by examining the effect of police-worn body cameras and find no evidence that the presence of such cameras impacts the racial distribution of victims.

Demographic and income disparities may impact food accessibility. Research has not yet well documented the precise location of healthy and unhealthy food resources around children’s homes and schools. The objective of this study was to examine the food environment around homes and schools for all public school children, stratified by race/ethnicity and poverty status. This cross-sectional study linked data on the exact home and school addresses of a population-based sample of public school children in New York City from 2013 to all corner stores, supermarkets, fast-food restaurants, and wait-service restaurants. Two measures were created around these addresses for all children: 1) distance to the nearest outlet, and 2) count of outlets within 0.25 miles. The total analytic sample included 789,520 K-12 graders. The average age was 11.78 years (SD ± 4.0 years). Black, Hispanic, and Asian students live and attend schools closer to nearly all food outlet types than White students, regardless of poverty status. Among not low-income students, Black, Hispanic, and Asian students were closer from home and school to corner stores and supermarkets, and had more supermarkets around school than White students. The context in which children live matters, and more nuanced data is important for development of appropriate solutions for childhood obesity. Future research should examine disparities in the food environment in other geographies and by other demographic characteristics, and then link these differences to health outcomes like body mass index. These findings can be used to better understand disparities in food access and to help design policies intended to promote healthy eating among children.
