研究所召开了一次科学论坛，由 18 名活跃于人口健康差异领域的研究人员参加。目的是讨论美洲印第安人/阿拉斯加原住民 (AI/AN) 儿童和青少年的心、肺和睡眠障碍。所有参与者都承认这些疾病的年龄和人群特定数据的缺乏，并呼吁进行新的研究来弥补这一差距。作为该论坛的参与者和该领域经验丰富的研究人员，我们从我们独特的角度总结了 AI/AN 青少年心血管疾病 (CVD) 的研究现状。我们回顾了 AI/AN 中环境暴露、饮食、体力活动和早发性肥胖的现有证据，重点关注 21 岁以下个体的现有数据，以及 CVD 及其危险因素患病率迅速增加的背景。应该指出的是，现有证据很少，
Institute convened a scientific forum with 18 investigators active in the field of population health disparities. The purpose was to discuss heart, lung, and sleep disorders in children and adolescents of American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) heritage. All participants acknowledged the paucity of age-and population-specific data on these disorders and called for new research to remedy the gap.As participants in that forum and seasoned investigators in the field, we summarize the current state of research on cardiovascular disease (CVD) in AI/AN youth from our unique perspective. We review the available evidence on environmental exposures, diet, physical activity, and early-onset obesity in AI/ANs, with a focus on data from individuals younger than 21 years as available, against the background of a rapidly increasing prevalence of CVD and its risk factors. It should be mentioned that the available evidence is sparse,
