Study Finds Frequent Experiences of Racism Associated with Greater Weight Gain among African American Women. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, March 4, 2014. Contact: Gina DiGravio, 617-638-8480, (Boston) A recent analysis conducted investigators from the Slone Epidemiology Center at Boston University has found that frequent experiences of racism were Results: Inadequate PNC use was much less common among Anglos (10.4%) as compared to African Americans and Mexican Americans (22.1% and 25.0%, respectively). In fully adjusted models, the odds ratio (OR) of African Americans receiving inadequate PNC was 1.46, while the risk for Mexican Americans was greater (OR = 1.93). costs are more often felt mothers - usual non-Hispanic whites - costs also impact African American mothers of more than 2 children - costs are not associated with Hispanic motherhood - in the US, there is a heavy financial penalty on anyone who chooses to spend any serious amount of time with children Sep 06, 2012 Ethnic-specific Pathways to Obesity-related Disease: The Hispanic vs. African-American Paradox.

Kitzman, Gestational Weight Gain and Health Outcomes 18 Years Later in Urban Black Women, Maternal August 29, 2003. African-American Teen Mothers Have Greater Risk for Low-Birth-Weight and Premature Babies. African-American teens are twice as likely to deliver low-birth-weight babies and 1.5 times more likely to have premature babies than whites, according to a study researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Identifying risk factors that affect excess weight gain during pregnancy is critical, especially among women who are at a higher risk for obesity. The goal of this study was to determine if acculturation, a possible risk factor, was associated with gestational weight gain in Gestational weight gain among American Samoan women and its impact on delivery and infant outcomes Article (PDF Available) in BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth 15(1):10 Although inadequate gestational weight gain (GWG) is a well-recognized risk factor for poor infant outcomes such as low birth weight, the recent obesity epidemic has drawn attention to excessive GWG at the other end of the weight gain spectrum (National Research Council & Institute of Which of the following accurately describes the risk of developing eating disorders among African-American women? A. Since 1995, African American women have shown a marked decrease in their risk of developing an eating disorder when compared to white American women.

True B Risk Factors for Excessive or Inadequate Gestational Weight Gain Among Hispanic Women in a U.S.-Mexico Border State Article in Journal of Obstetric Gynecologic & Neonatal Nursing 38(4):418-29 This study examined racial/ethnic differences in gestational weight gain (GWG) predictors and association of first-trimester GWG to overall GWG among 271 White women and 300 Latina women. Rates of within-guideline GWG were higher among Latinas than among Whites In this context, we used nationally-representative data to examine the relationship between BMI and cervical cancer screening among white, African-American, and Hispanic women and explored factors that explained differences across race and body weight. Excessive gestational weight gain and postpartum weight retention likely contribute to the development of overweight and obesity in black women. Although black women are more likely to have inadequate gestational weight gain than white women, over 40% of black women have excessive gestational weight gain based on recent data. Non-Hispanic Black women had the highest prevalence of weight gain below these guidelines, or inadequate GWG (23.2%; Hispanics: 22.6%, Whites: 18.5%). Over half (52%) of White women gained excessively, or above the IOM guidelines, as well as almost half of Blacks (48%) and Hispanics (44%) ( 5 ). Identifying risk factors that affect excess weight gain during pregnancy is critical, especially among women who are at a higher risk for obesity. The goal of this study was to determine if acculturation, a possible risk factor, was associated with gestational weight gain in a predominantly Puerto Rican population. We utilized data from Proyecto Buena Salud, a prospective cohort study of
