目标.本研究调查了社会环境对全因死亡率种族差异的影响。从国家纵向死亡率研究的数据进行了分析。经家庭收入调整后，年龄调整后的死亡率风险随着25至44岁的黑人和45至64岁的非黑人中少数民族居住隔离的增加而增加。在大多数年龄/种族/性别组中，最高和最低的死亡风险分别发生在最高和最低的居住隔离类别中。这些结果表明，少数民族居住隔离可能会影响死亡风险，并强调传统上强调疾病和死亡的社会基础。
Objectives. This study investigated the influence of an aggregate measure of the social environment on racial differences in all-cause mortality.Methods. Data from the National Longitudinal Mortality Study were analyzed.Results. After adjustment for family income, age-adjusted mortality risk increased with increasing minority residential segregation among Blacks aged 25 to 44 years and non-Blacks aged 45 to 64 years. In most age/race/gender groups, the highest and lowest mortality risks occurred in the highest and lowest categories of residential segregation, respectively.Conclusions. These results suggest that minority residential segregation may influence mortality risk and underscore the traditional emphasis on the social underpinnings of disease and death.
