Evaluating equity in a national virtual care management intervention: delivery and outcomes by race/ethnicity among veterans with hypertension and diabetes.
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the Preventive Health Inventory (PHI), a virtual care management intervention implemented in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), was delivered equitably among racial/ethnic groups. Researchers used data from the VHA Corporate Data Warehouse among veterans enrolled in primary care nationally. Their findings suggested that the PHI intervention was deployed equitably across race/ethnicity groups without significantly impacting most existing inequities in hypertension and diabetes.

Equitable care for hypertension: blood pressure and patient-reported outcomes of the RICH LIFE cluster randomized trial.
The RICH LIFE (Reducing Inequities in Care of Hypertension: Lifestyle Improvement for Everyone) study was a 2-arm, cluster randomized trial that compared the effect on blood pressure (BP) control, patient activation, and disparities in BP control of 2 multilevel interventions, standard of care plus (SCP) and collaborative care/stepped care (CC/SC). 1820 adults with a mean age of 60.3 years with uncontrolled BP and at least one other risk factors enrolled in the study. The results showed that pairwise comparisons between racial and ethnic groups showed overall no significant differences in BP control at 12 months. Patients with coronary heart disease showed greater achievement of BP control in CC/SC than in SCP. Individuals in both arms of the trail experienced significant reductions in mean systolic BP; the difference in diastolic BP reduction between CC/SC and SCP over time was statistically significant. Patient activation did not differ between trail arms. Adding a collaborative care team to enhanced standard of care did not improve BP control but did improve patient ratings of chronic illness care.

Trends in poor health indicators among Black and Hispanic middle-aged and older adults in the United States, 1999-2018.
This study used records extracted from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System to determine which health indicators have improved or became worse among Black and Hispanic middle-aged (45 and older) adults compared to Whites from 1999 to 2018. This data is required by the Minority Health and Health Disparities Research and Education Act of 2000. A sample included of 4,856,326 participants, of them 60.9% women, mean age 60.4. During the last 20 years, Black adults showed an overall decrease showing improvement in uninsured status and physical inactivity while showing an overall increase in hypertension, diabetes, asthma, and stroke, and also the same increases and decreases in the Black-White gap. Hispanic adults showed improvement in physical inactivity and perceived poor health, while they showed overall deterioration in hypertension and diabetes. The Hispanic-White gap improved in coronary heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, asthma, arthritis, depression and physical inactivity while it increased for diabetes, hypertension, and uninsured status.

Disparities in socioeconomic context and association with blood pressure control and cardiovascular outcomes in ALLHAT.
This study used data from the randomized clinical trial ALLHAT (Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial) to study the effect of socioeconomics and blood pressure control and cardiovascular outcomes. The study sites were stratified by their county-level median household income into income quintiles. The lowest income sites (quintile 1) were most likely to be women, black or Hispanic, have less education, to live in the South and to have fewer cardiovascular risk factors. Despite standardized treatment protocols, quintile 1 participants were less likely to have blood pressure control, and all greater all-cause mortality, heart failure hospitalizations/mortality and end-stage renal disease than the highest income participants (quintile 5).

Police-recorded crime and disparities in obesity and blood pressure status in Chicago.
The purpose of this study was to examine associations between several types of police-recorded crime (violent, nonviolent, and homicide) and cardiometabolic health (obesity and elevated blood pressure [BP]), and to determine if associations were modified by age and sex. It concluded that in a densely populated, high-poverty region in Chicago, recurrent exposure to high rates of violent crime was consistently associated with obesity and elevated BP, but rare exposure to homicide was not.

Trends in cardiovascular health of US adults by income, 2005-2014.
This research letter discusses the trends in cardiovascular health of US adults by income from 2005-2014. The investigators assessed national trends in cardiovascular risk factors by income level among adults aged 25 years and older using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, a nationally representative, multistage probability sample of the US population, across 5 periods: 2005 to 2006, 2007 to 2008, 2009 to 2010, 2011 to 2012, and 2013 to 2014.
