Abstract

This review of reviews examines the role of socioeconomic status (SES) indicators on health inequities among different racial and ethnic groups in the United States (US) between 2019 and 2023. Of the 419 articles, 27 reviews met the inclusion criteria and were aggregated into seven categories: COVID-19 and respiratory pandemic disparities; neighborhoods, gentrification, and food environment; surgical treatments; mental, psychological, and behavioral health; insurance, access to care, and policy impact; cancers; and other topics. The findings revealed a documented impact of SES indicators on racial/ethnic health inequities, with racial/ethnic minority communities, especially Black Americans, consistently showing poor health outcomes associated with lower SES, regardless of the outcome or indicator examined. These findings call attention to the importance of policies and practices that address socioeconomic factors and systemic racial/ethnic inequities affecting the social determinants of health affecting racial/ethnic inequities to improve health outcomes in the US population.

审查美国社会经济地位和种族/族裔对健康结果的影响的公共卫生文献综述》（A Review of the Public Health Literature Examining the Roles of Socioeconomic Status and Race/Ethnicity on Health Outcomes in the United States）。

本综述研究了2019年至2023年期间社会经济地位（SES）指标对美国不同种族和族裔群体健康不平等的影响。在 419 篇文章中，有 27 篇综述符合纳入标准，并被归纳为七个类别：COVID-19和呼吸道流行病差异；邻里、绅士化和饮食环境；外科治疗；精神、心理和行为健康；保险、获得护理和政策影响；癌症；以及其他主题。研究结果表明，社会经济地位指标对种族/民族健康不平等的影响是有据可查的，少数种族/民族社区，尤其是美国黑人，始终表现出与较低的社会经济地位相关的不良健康结果，无论研究的结果或指标如何。这些研究结果呼吁人们关注解决影响健康的社会决定因素的社会经济因素和系统性种族/族裔不平等的政策和做法对改善美国人口健康结果的重要性。

期刊介绍： Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities reports on the scholarly progress of work to understand, address, and ultimately eliminate health disparities based on race and ethnicity. Efforts to explore underlying causes of health disparities and to describe interventions that have been undertaken to address racial and ethnic health disparities are featured. Promising studies that are ongoing or studies that have longer term data are welcome, as are studies that serve as lessons for best practices in eliminating health disparities. Original research, systematic reviews, and commentaries presenting the state-of-the-art thinking on problems centered on health disparities will be considered for publication. We particularly encourage review articles that generate innovative and testable ideas, and constructive discussions and/or critiques of health disparities.Because the Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities receives a large number of submissions, about 30% of submissions to the Journal are sent out for full peer review.
