目标。《2010年健康人:了解和改善健康》列出了少数群体保健服务存在差距的6个领域:婴儿死亡率、癌症、心血管疾病、艾滋病毒/艾滋病、糖尿病和免疫接种。本研究汇编了现有的亚裔美国人和太平洋岛民(AAPI)的健康数据,以建立基线。对于联邦资助的研究(1986-2000),分析了特定项目信息的计算机检索(CRISP)数据库。亚太裔活动按亚种群和差异区划分。MEDLINE文章(1966-2000)也进行了类似的审查。很少有联邦健康相关拨款(0.2%)和MEDLINE文章(0.01%)提到亚太裔。对于6个差异领域,亚太地区的数据差距仍然很大。为了实现“健康人2010”的目标并获得有用的数据,研究人员和资助者必须把重点放在获取分类的亚太裔亚组的基线数据上。
Objectives. Healthy People 2010: Understanding and Improving Health lists 6 areas of disparity in minority health services: infant mortality, cancer, cardiovascular disease, HIV/AIDS, diabetes, and immunizations. This study compiles existing Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) health data to establish a baseline.Methods. For federally-sponsored research (1986-2000), the Computer Retrieval of Information on Specific Projects (CRISP) database was analyzed. AAPI initiatives were divided by subpopulation and disparity area. MEDLINE articles (1966-2000) were similarly scrutinized.Results. Few federal health-related grants (0.2%) and MEDLINE articles (0.01%) mention AAPIs. For the 6 disparity areas, significant AAPI data gaps remain.Conclusions. To reach the Healthy People 2010 goals and have useful data, researchers and grant makers must focus on obtaining baseline data for disaggregated AAPI subgroups.
