Eliminating Explicit and Implicit Biases in Health Care: Evidence and Research Needs

Monica B. Vela et al.

Summary: Health care providers exhibit explicit and implicit biases against marginalized groups, which impact patient-clinician communication, clinical decision making, and institutional practices. Current interventions have limited effectiveness in changing provider behavior, and addressing bias requires systemic changes within and outside the health care system.

The Intellectual Roots Of Current Knowledge On Racism And Health: Relevance To Policy And The National Equity Discourse

Ruth Enid Zambrana et al.

Summary: Research on racism and health has progressed in recent decades, highlighting the importance of social determinants of health, life-course approaches, structural racism, and other upstream factors in driving health inequities. However, there is discomfort in public health and medical circles regarding racism research, including opposition to using racial terminology. National reports on racial and ethnic inequities in health have also given limited attention to the role of racism. It is crucial to recognize the central role of racism in the national discourse on racial inequities in health and promote paradigm shifts to address the roots of racism and health inequities.

Systemic And Structural Racism: Definitions, Examples, Health Damages, And Approaches To Dismantling

Paula A. Braveman et al.

Summary: Racism can manifest in both conscious and unconscious ways, and it can be seen as both a systemic and structural issue. Systemic and structural racism is deeply embedded within systems, laws, policies, and practices that perpetuate unfair treatment and oppression of people of color, leading to negative health consequences. Addressing these forms of racism requires coordinated efforts across multiple sectors and locations, with the crucial first step being the recognition of their existence.

Examination of Stigmatizing Language in the Electronic Health Record

Gracie Himmelstein et al.

Summary: This cross-sectional study found that stigmatizing language in hospital notes varied by medical condition and was more often used to describe non-Hispanic Black patients. Training clinicians to minimize stigmatizing language in the electronic health record might improve patient-clinician relationships and reduce the transmission of bias between clinicians.

Intersectionality in quantitative research: A systematic review of its emergence and applications of theory and methods

Greta R. Bauer et al.

Summary: A characterization of quantitative research applications of intersectionality from 1989 to mid-2020 revealed challenges in applying intersectionality theoretical frameworks in quantitative research, with about one in four articles failing to define intersectionality and about one in six including intersectional position components not reflective of social power. Quantitative methods were found to be simplistic and often misapplied or misinterpreted, highlighting the need for further work in understanding key features of quantitative intersectionality analyses and improving reporting practices.

An investigation of quantitative methods for assessing intersectionality in health research: A systematic review

Alice Guan et al.

Summary: Intersectionality theory investigates how systems of power and oppression influence marginalized groups, but there is a lack of consistent quantitative methods. This review identified eight classes of quantitative methods used in intersectionality research, with regression being the most common approach. Researchers should pay attention to maintaining the core tenets of intersectionality and avoid using methods that contradict its principles.

The quality of social determinants data in the electronic health record: a systematic review

Lily A. Cook et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify and analyze data quality problems associated with variables related to social determinants of health (SDoH). Plausibility and bias are the most commonly reported quality issues, with a focus on race and ethnicity factors. Strategies for mitigating issues related to poor SDoH data quality include avoiding complete case analysis, imputing data, relying on multiple sources, using validated software tools, and carefully selecting addresses.

Incorporating Measures of Structural Racism into Population Studies of Reproductive Health in the United States: A Narrative Review

Julianna G. Alson et al.

Summary: This study identified four domains of systemic racism that may affect reproductive health outcomes for black women in the United States, with multiple quantitative measures available for each domain. The study also suggests potential opportunities for future development of additional domains of systemic racism into distinct measures. Incorporating such measures is crucial for addressing racial inequities in reproductive health outcomes.
