Abstract:
Resumen Por un lado, “Cósmica habitación” y “Velar tu desnudez” pertenecen al poemario inédito Depravación de la luz, el cual buscan abrir de nuevo el espacio de enunciación de la voz homoerótica en la poesía costarricense. Para ello, se apoya no solo en la herencia cultural de las místicas hispano-musulmana, hispano-judía, indoamericana e hispano-cristiana y otras perspectivas filosóficas y estéticas, sino también en una consciencia ecológica, con el fin de configurar un mundo íntimo e interconectado donde las metáforas conducen lo erótico desde una corporalidad dinámica y reflexiva plena hasta las vivencias cotidianas y cósmicas de lo sagrado. De ahí que la cósmica habitación, esa suprarrealidad habitada por estos dos varones amantes, se convierta poema a poema en un espacio vivido de luminosa resistencia, en un espacio transparente, desde donde se lucha simbólica y performativamente contra la injuria ejercida sobre los sujetos gays en el ámbito nacional y mundial. Por otra parte, los poemas I, II y III son muestras de un proyecto poético también inédito en el que se pretende, siguiendo a Roberto Fonrs-Broggi, dar voz a “grietas”: a esas materias vivas no humanas, consideradas tradicionalmente inertes; grietas que, en todo caso, se encuentran interconectadas, por ejemplo: el escarabajo, la calima sahariana o el cedro.Abstract On one hand, “Cosmic room” and “Veil your nudity” belong to Depravity of the Light. This unpublished poetry-book seeks to open again the space of enunciation of homoerotic voice in Costa Rican poetry. For that purpose, it is based not only on cultural heritage of Hispanic-Muslim, Hispanic-Jewish, Indo-American and Hispanic-Christian mystiques and another philosophical and aesthetic perspective, but also on an ecological awareness. According to these, an intimate and interconnected world, where metaphors lead the eroticism from a dynamical and reflexive full corporeality to the daily and cosmic experiences of the sacred. Thus, the cosmic room, this supra-reality dwelled by these two lover men, is poem by poem turned into a space of life, of luminous resistance, where they symbolical and performatively fight against homophobic injury nationally and worldwide. On the other hand, the I, II and III poems are samples of an unpublished poetic project, which pretends, according to Roberto Forns-Broggi, gives a voice to “cracks”: those living no human material, traditionally considered as inert; “cracks” that, in any case, are interconnected, for example: the beetle, the Saharan haze or the cedar.

Abstract:
Background: Socioeconomic Status (SES) indicators, such as educational attainment, are social determinants of heart disease. Marginalization related Diminished Returns (MDRs) refer to smaller health benefits of high SES for racial and ethnic minorities compared to the majority group. It is still unknown, however, if MDRs also apply to the effects of education on heart disease. Purpose: Using a nationally representative sample, we explored racial/ethnic variation in the link between educational attainment and heart disease among American adults. Methods: We analyzed data (n=25,659) from a nationally representative survey of American adults in 2013. The first wave of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health - Adult (PATH-Adult) study was used. The independent variable was education (college graduate, high school graduate, less than a high school diploma). The dependent variable was any heart disease. Age and gender were the covariates. Race, as well as ethnicity, were the moderators. Logistic regressions were used to analyze the data. Results: Individuals with higher educational attainment had lower odds of heart disease. Race and ethnicity showed statistically significant interactions with education, suggesting that the protective effect of higher education on reducing odds of heart disease was smaller for Hispanic and Black people than for non-Hispanic and White individuals. Conclusion: Education reduces the risk of heart disease better among non-Hispanic Whites than for Hispanics and Blacks. Therefore, we may expect a disproportionately higher than expected risk of heart disease in Hispanics and Blacks with high educational attainment. Future research should test if the presence of high levels of environmental and behavioral risk factors contribute to the high risk of heart disease in highly educated Black and Hispanic Americans. Policymakers should not reduce health inequalities to just gaps in SES because disparities are present across SES levels, with high SES Blacks and Hispanics remaining at risk of health problems.

Abstract:
259 Background: According to the American Cancer Association, hepatitisB and Cinfections may raise liver cancer risk. We identify population-specific cancer-attributable hepatitis prevalence to discern disparities across race/ethnicity for liver cancer risk. Methods: Data from 1999-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were used to determine prevalence, unadjusted odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) for non-Hispanic-Whites (NHW), non-Hispanic-Blacks (NHB), Mexican-Americans, other Hispanics, and other race of hepatitis, taking complex sampling design into account. Results: Among those sampled, the overall highest prevalence of hepatitis infection was 66.4% in NHW for hepatitis-C and the lowest prevalence was 1.4% in Mexican-Americans for hepatitis-B surface-antigen. NHB were more likely than NHW to have hepatitis-B infections of surface-antibody (OR=1.9; 95%CI=1.8-2.0), core-antibody (3.3; 3.1-3.6), surface-antigen (5.3; 3.6-7.7), and hepatitis-C infections (1.7; 1.5-2.0). Compared to NHW, other Hispanics had a higher burden of hepatitis-B infection of surface-antibody (1.5; 1.4-1.7) and core-antibody (2.5; 2.1-2.8); other race had the same higher infection pattern as other Hispanics in surface-antibody (2.4; 2.2-2.6) and core-antibody (6.7; 6.0-7.5). Surface-antibody was more prevalent (1.5; 1.4-1.6) while core-antibody was less prevalent (0.9; 0.8-0.9) among Mexican-Americans compared with NHW. Conclusions: The prevalence of hepatitis B and C infections varies across different race/ethnicities with NHB having the greatest burden compared with NHW. Population-based databases should collect more information regarding infection burden in at-risk groups in order to understand more about these disparities. Appreciating such gaps across demographics could assist in future efforts to decrease the burden of hepatitis and to provide a base for targeted liver cancer prevention programs via screening, vaccination, health promotion, and literacy.

Abstract:
Background: Higher socioeconomic status (SES) indicators such as educational attainment and income reduce the risk of chronic lung diseases (CLDs) such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and asthma. Marginalization-related Diminished Returns (MDRs) refer to smaller health benefits of high SES for marginalized populations such as racial and ethnic minorities compared to the socially privileged groups such as non-Hispanic Whites. It is still unknown, however, if MDRs also apply to the effects of education and income on CLDs. Purpose: Using a nationally representative sample, the current study explored racial and ethnic variation in the associations between educational attainment and income and CLDs among American adults.Methods: In this study, we analyzed data (n = 25,659) from a nationally representative survey of American adults in 2013 and 2014. Wave one of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH)-Adult study was used. The independent variables were educational attainment (less than high school = 1, high school graduate = 2, and college graduate = 3) and income (living out of poverty = 1, living in poverty = 0). The dependent variable was any CLDs (i.e., COPD, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and asthma). Age, gender, employment, and region were the covariates. Race and ethnicity were the moderators. Logistic regressions were fitted to analyze the data. Results: Individuals with higher educational attainment and those with higher income (who lived out of poverty) had lower odds of CLDs. Race and ethnicity showed statistically significant interactions with educational attainment and income, suggesting that the protective effects of high education and income on reducing odds of CLDs were smaller for Blacks and Hispanics than for non-Hispanic Whites. Conclusions: Education and income better reduce the risk of CLDs among Whites than Hispanics and Blacks. That means we should expect disproportionately higher than expected risk of CLDs in Hispanics and Blacks with high SES. Future research should test if high levels of environmental risk factors contribute to the high risk of CLDs in high income and highly educated Black and Hispanic Americans. Policy makers should not reduce health inequalities to SES gaps because disparities sustain across SES levels, with high SES Blacks and Hispanics remaining at risk of health problems.

Abstract:
Business success is a dominant theme in the Asian American narrative. However, Asian American entrepreneurship is more complex and multilayered than commonly believed and requires careful scrutiny. This brief examines the state of Asian American business ownership between 2005 and 2007. Findings suggest that although Asian Americans form businesses at higher rates than other racial/ethnic minorities, Asian American business ownership and outcomes continue to trail those of non-Hispanic whites. Potential factors contributing to racial/ethnic gaps and policy recommendations are discussed.

Abstract:
AbstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the patterns of complementary and integrative health (CIH) use among adults with a racial/ethnic minority background and a mental illness. A secondary data analysis of 2017 National Health Interview Survey (N = 793) was conducted using chi-square, multivariate logistic regression, and multinomial logistic regression. Overall, Black/African Americans and Hispanic/Latinx groups remained the least proportional of CIH therapies utilization. Being a male, Black/African American or Latinx/Hispanic and had work experience were predictors of the least use of the CIH therapies. Research is needed to bridge the gaps on the CIH use among a racial/ethnic minority with mental illness and to enhance the equitable and collaborative mental health care in the community.

Abstract:
Abstract Background and Objective While highly effective hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapies exist, gaps in the cascade of care remain. Disparities in the HCV cascade are prominent among underserved safety-net populations. We aim to evaluate the HCV cascade among an urban safety-net cohort of HCV patients. Methods We retrospectively evaluated adults with chronic HCV to determine rates of linkage to care (LTC), retention to care, and receiving HCV treatment from 2002 to 2018. Comparisons between groups utilized Chi-square testing; comparisons of median time to LTC and HCV treatment were evaluated with Student’s t-test and analysis of variance. Results Among 600 chronic HCV patients (60.7% male, 20.7% non-Hispanic white, 49.2% African American, 92.5% treatment naïve, 26.8% cirrhosis), successful LTC within one year of HCV diagnosis was 57.7%, among which, 91.6% were successfully retained into care. In those with successful LTC, 72.6% received HCV treatment, 91.8% completed treatment, and 89% achieved SVR12. Women with HCV experienced longer delays from LTC to HCV treatment (331 vs. 206 days in men, P < 0.05), as did African Americans (280 vs. 165 days in non-Hispanic whites, P < 0.05). Compared to the non-Hispanic whites, HCV treatment was lower in African Americans (70.4% vs. 74.4%, P < 0.05). Conclusion Women with HCV experienced significant delays along the HCV cascade, with median time of over 2 years from diagnosis to treatment. African Americans also experienced significant delays along the HCV cascade of care. However, sex and race/ethnicity were not found to be significant predictors of overall LTC or treatment.

Abstract:
By 2050, one in five Americans will be 65 years and older. The growing proportion of older adults in the U.S. population has implications for many aspects of health including disaster preparedness. This study assessed correlates of disaster preparedness among community-dwelling minority older adults and explored unique differences for African American and Hispanic older adults. An electronic survey was disseminated to older minority adults 55+, between November 2020 and January 2021 (n = 522). An empirical framework was used to contextualize 12 disaster-related activities into survival an0000000d planning actions. Multivariate logistic regression models were stratified by race/ethnicity to examine the correlates of survival and planning actions in African American and Hispanic older adults, separately. We found that approximately 6 in 10 older minority adults did not perceive themselves to be disaster prepared. Medicare coverage was positively associated with survival and planning actions. Income level and prior experience with disaster were related to survival actions in the African American population. In conclusion, recognizing the gaps in disaster-preparedness in elderly minority communities can inform culturally sensitive interventions to improve disaster preparedness and recovery.

Abstract:
Abstract Hereditary susceptibility studies for breast cancer are key to enhancing early detection and exercising prevention strategies in order to reduce breast cancer mortality. Germline pathogenic variants that have shown susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer are detected in gene panels including ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDH1, CDKN2A, CHEK2, DICER1, EPCAM, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, NBN, NF1, PALB2, PMS2, PTEN, POLE, RAD50, RAD51C, RAD51D, RECQL, STK11, and TP53. Historically, minority populations have been overlooked both in reach and access to genetic testing, resulting in a lack of knowledge of the genomic landscape and creating a barrier to the application of genetics in clinical medicine. This is the case with the populations of South Texas including the Texas-Mexico border region. According to the US Census Bureau, the South Texas region population is comprised of 69% Hispanics while the Texas-Mexico border region population is comprised of over 90% Hispanics. Previous studies have shown multiple pathogenic variants and also variants of unknown significance (VUS) specific to ethnic populations and regions, but there is little information regarding the Mexican American population of South Texas.Our GRACIAS Texas Program has provided services to individuals and professionals across 26 counties in the South Texas area by specifically providing cancer genetic counseling and testing to individuals and families at highest risk. Recruitment was accomplished through comprehensive outreach to communities through health fairs, small group education sessions, mammography centers, hospitals, FQHCs, and direct interactions with medical providers. Although our program focused on recognizing both breast and colon cancer, and also reached those with rare cancer predisposition syndromes, the concern for breast cancer risk was most commonly addressed, accounting for the majority of cases. A total of 1595 individuals were identified as appropriate for cancer genetic counseling, and of these, 1377 individuals completed genetic testing. Of all individuals who received cancer genetic counseling, 1269 (79.5%) were Hispanic, 16% non-Hispanic White, 3% African American, and 1% other race/ethnicity. The group of individuals receiving testing consisted of 86% females and 14% males. Of those tested, 259 (18.8%) individuals were found to have pathogenic genetic variant and 187 (13.7%) individuals were found to have a VUS. Notedly, the VUS were nearly twice as common in the Hispanic population (14%) as compared to non-Hispanic White population (7.2%). This underscores the disparities of knowledge in genomic variation in Hispanic and non-Hispanic population. We also note that although the percentage of African American patients seen was small, 12 of 45 (26.6%) were found to have a VUS which further reflects the underrepresentation of African Americans in genomic landscape studies.These variants are important because they present a dilemma when advising patients as to need for cancer screening. However, recognition and further exploration of these VUS provide a future pathway to functional assessment and thus eventual knowledge to guide patient care. We continue to monitor for any changes to the status of these VUS. Although many variants are ultimately classified as benign variations, we have seen cases in which a VUS is reclassified into a likely pathogenic or definitely pathogenic variation having significant implications for screening, prevention, and management for these individuals and their families emphasizing further the need to continue to follow individuals tested. Our observations will help define the gene-specific risks of individuals and families in our underserved communities and will support the goal of closing gaps in genomic disparities.Supported by CPRIT grants PP120089 and PP160011 and NIH P30 CA54174.

Abstract:
In light of the NCLB Act of 2001, this study estimated mathematics achievement gaps in different subgroups of kindergartners and first graders, and identified child- and school-level correlates and moderators of early mathematics achievement. A subset of 2300 students nested in 182 schools from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study K-First Grade data set was analyzed with hierarchical linear models. Relative to school mean estimates at the end of kindergarten, significant mathematics achievement gaps were found in Hispanics, African Americans and high poverty students. At the end of Grade 1, mathematics gaps were significant in African American, high poverty, and female subgroups, but not in Hispanics. School-level correlates of Grade 1 Mathematics achievement were class size (with a small negative main effect), at-home reading time by parents (with a large positive main effect) and school size (with a small positive main effect). Cross-level interactions in Grade 1 indicated that schools with larger class and school sizes had a negative effect on African American children's math scores; schools giving more instructional time to reading and math had a positive effect on high poverty students' scores, and schools with higher elementary teacher certification rates had a positive effect on boys' mathematics achievement.

Abstract:
The study examined factors that influenced high school students' participation in a college dual enrollment program. The purpose was to determine why more students from a large high school with a predominately Hispanic enrollment did not participate in a dual enrollment program. The sample design included college-bound high school juniors and seniors participating and not participating in a dual enrollment program. Family and teacher influences emerged as salient predictors of participation, while factors such as a lack of information, academic un-preparedness and a lack of qualified teachers to teach dual enrollment were associated with internal barriers to participation.<br>text

Abstract:
AbstractAnalyzing recipes and cooking technologies from Latin America, Chap. 6 illustrates the creative tension between culinary tradition and innovation. Throughout the postcolonial era, makers of Latin American cuisine exhibited remarkable flexibility, adopting elements of cuisines from the other sides of the Atlantic and the Pacific―without giving up the use of indigenous ingredients and familiar cooking techniques. Home cooks adopted gas stoves and refrigerators—and they strove to serve their families nutritious meals. Despite these modernizing trends, however, pre-Hispanic cooking tools like the batán (hand mill), and indigenous ingredients like corn, retained their prominence. The making of so-called cocina criolla entailed fidelity to the old as well as openness to the new; both kinds of manual techniques and material technologies have, for more than a century, existed side by side.

Abstract:
Employing data from the National Congregations Study, this chapter charts parish trends in key areas of organizational life across a dynamic fifteen-year period of recent history. Parishes’ organizational composition is becoming older and more Hispanic, both among priests and among people in the pews. Meanwhile, local parish cultures are becoming more theologically conservative, but also less charismatic in worship style. Catholic parishes are also seeing large increases in political activity, suggesting a “new politicization” of local Catholic life. Finally, parishes have heightened their participation boundaries against women and gays and lesbians. While briefly suggesting possibilities for why these changes are taking place, this chapter provides an accurate descriptive view of contemporary U.S. parishes and suggests how best to study trends in the years ahead.

Abstract:
Abstract The United States has a history of either welcoming immigrants or rejecting them. At many periods the country welcomed immigrants, but at other times it has not. It always has struggled with the treatment of minorities, from African American enslavement to native Americans placed on reservations to Asian Americans put into camps to intolerance of Hispanics and to rejection of gays, lesbians, Muslims, Jews, and people who do not work with their hands. This trend has been prominent in American politics throughout its history but has become more prominent as American parties have polarized. White evangelicals now dominate the Republican party and have attempted to institute regulations on access to the ballot. Such actions are aimed at the minorities who support Democrats. The Christian right sees many minorities as unworthy of government assistance.

Abstract:
Abstract Marxist literary theory is currently unfashionable in Europe and the United States. This is partly the result of the critiques it has suffered at the hands of such thinkers as Foucault and the apostles of post-modernism. But perhaps the most damaging charge made against orthodox Marxism is that it cannot provide an adequate answer to the questions raised by gender and sexuality. Typical of recent criticism is Toril Moi’s claim that while Marxism has proved valuable as a precedent for the (feminist) study of significant gaps or absences in hegemonic texts, there is now no coherent body of Marxist-feminist theory to challenge the dominance of the French and North American schools (Sexual/Textual Politics, pp. 93-4). In the seventies a number of mainly British women did indeed attempt syntheses of Marxism and feminism. Thus Ann Foreman, for example, compares the position of woman to that of the proletariat in Femininity as Alienation (London, 1977):

Abstract:
Women continue to be underrepresented in medicine, especially in senior leadership positions, and they experience challenges related to gender bias and sexual harassment. Women who are members of multiple groups that experience marginalization, including, for example, women who are American Indian, Alaskan native, indigenous, Black, or Hispanic, face a compounded challenge. In this article, we explore how institutions and professional organizations in medicine can use metrics to better understand the structural disparities that create and promote gender inequity in the work environment and how to employ these metrics to track progress in narrowing these gaps. Examples in health care (clinical medicine, scientific organizations, scientific publishing), business, and law are used to illustrate how impactful metrics can promote accountability when coupled with transparent reporting.

Abstract:
The present multimethod research examines different stereotypes about race and ethnicity via a comic book superhero lens. This study focuses on the ascription of traits to a superhero figure developed specifically for this research, examining differences in trait ascription based on the race and sexual orientation of the hero. A diverse sample of participants (N = 371) were presented random drawings of either White, African American, Hispanic, Middle Eastern, Asian, or Native American superhero images and asked questions about their perceptions of the hero’s traits, character role (hero, villain, and sidekick), powers, and socio-economic status. Additionally, hero sexual orientation was manipulated (Heterosexual × Gay), bringing 12 conditions of hero identity that were randomly assigned to participants in a 6 (Race: White × Black × Latinx × Asian × Arab × Native American) × 2 (Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual × Gay) cross-sectional design. Results indicated that participants ascribed certain traits differently based on the race of the hero as well as how race and sexuality of the hero interacted. Additionally, results supported the use of original, fictional images as a means of examining participant perceptions of race and sexuality. These empirical findings can be helpful in the creation and real-world adaptations of comic book superhero media and understanding effects of comic media on the development and dissemination of stereotypes.

Abstract:
Abstract IN March I997 I attended a sold-out screening of Cambia de sexa (I977) in Los Angeles that was part of a ‘Vicente Aranda Tribute’ within the American Cinematheque’s annual series on ‘Recent Spanish Cinema’ -a screening which enabled me to see this film with new eyes. Recognizing many persons in the audience and overhearing conversations about the film, I realized this was not the typical crowd for the annual Spanish series, which usually has a particular interest in Hispanic culture. Rather, these enthused spectators were primarily gay males or fans of Victoria Abril, whom most of them probably came to know in Pedro Almodóvar’s outrageous melodramas, such as jAtame! ( I989 ), Tacanes lejanos (I99I), and Kika (I993); or in the French nominee for the I995 foreign-language Oscar, French Twist; or in Aranda’s noir thriller Amantes (I99I), his only box-office success thus far in the United States.

Abstract:
Abstract In 1999, 2.8 million people died of AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome), and another 5.4 million people were newly infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes AIDS. Disheartening, yes, but these numbers pale in comparison with the cumulative totals. By the start of the twenty-first century, nearly 19 million people had died of AIDS since the epidemic began in the 1980s, and more than 53 million had contracted HIV. Thus far, Africa has been the hardest-hit region of the world: In many sub-Saharan countries, one out of every ten adults is infected with HIV. In the United States, over one million people have been infected with HIV, and nearly a half million people have died of AIDS. The epidemic has slowed among its earliest targets, gay men and other men who have sex with men, and is now considered by many to be mainly a disease of the poor and disenfranchised. More than half of all new AIDS cases now occur among African Americans and Hispanics; women make up about a quarter of all new diagnoses.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVES The prevalence of childhood obesity is significantly higher among racial and/or ethnic minority children in the United States. It is unclear to what extent well-established obesity risk factors in infancy and preschool explain these disparities. Our objective was to decompose racial and/or ethnic disparities in children’s weight status according to contributing socioeconomic and behavioral risk factors. METHODS We used nationally representative data from ~10 700 children in the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study Birth Cohort who were followed from age 9 months through kindergarten entry. We assessed the contribution of socioeconomic factors and maternal, infancy, and early childhood obesity risk factors to racial and/or ethnic disparities in children’s BMI z scores by using Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition analyses. RESULTS The prevalence of risk factors varied significantly by race and/or ethnicity. African American children had the highest prevalence of risk factors, whereas Asian children had the lowest prevalence. The major contributor to the BMI z score gap was the rate of infant weight gain during the first 9 months of life, which was a strong predictor of BMI z score at kindergarten entry. The rate of infant weight gain accounted for between 14.9% and 70.5% of explained disparities between white children and their racial and/or ethnic minority peers. Gaps in socioeconomic status were another important contributor that explained disparities, especially those between white and Hispanic children. Early childhood risk factors, such as fruit and vegetable consumption and television viewing, played less important roles in explaining racial and/or ethnic differences in children’s BMI z scores. CONCLUSIONS Differences in rapid infant weight gain contribute substantially to racial and/or ethnic disparities in obesity during early childhood. Interventions implemented early in life to target this risk factor could help curb widening racial and/or ethnic disparities in early childhood obesity.

Abstract:
There are many aspects of the transportation industry that can be focused on, but the lack of resiliency is one of the most urgent. Enhancing resiliency and creative problem-solving is essential to the industry’s growth and survival. But it cannot happen without building a more diverse workforce. Women still make up a small fraction of transportation workers, and African American and Hispanic employees are even less represented. These disparities are increasingly pronounced in many senior positions, particularly in STEM fields. Meanwhile, the public transportation industry is experiencing a severe and worsening workforce shortage and many agencies have reported substantial difficulty recruiting, retaining, and developing skilled workers. Considering the transit industry’s existing diversity and inclusion toolkits and guidelines, this project emphasizes lessons from in-depth interviews with leaders from 18 transit agencies across the country. The interviews illuminate the existing challenges and creative solutions around transit workforce diversity and inclusion. From the interviews, we discovered: 1) the critical factors that impact the current level of diversity and career mobility within transit agencies; 2) how diversity efforts help explore resources and provide opportunities for effective and robust employee engagement; and 3) the significance of evaluation systems in creating a more transparent recruitment process that initiates structural shifts, resulting in better recruiting. Moving towards inclusive and equitable workforce environments is a healing process that starts with understanding these gaps. We call this effort Healing the Workforce through Diversification.
