1. African American Health is important to study because the different types of chronic illnesses are important to learn about. We can get a better understanding of what the cause might be of these different types of illnesses and medical conditions. We can learn the backgrounds of where these illnesses and medical conditions started from. It will give us a basic idea of different medical conditions that is very common in our culture. Comments 15 points each – Addressing classmate by name 2 points Content with in-text citation – 8 points References in correct APA – 5 points 2. It is important to study African American health because, Life expectancy at birth has historically been shorter for African American than other American, but the differences disappear or reverse themselves at older ages, creating the “Crossover Phenomenon”. The leading causes of death among African American age 25 and over are: Heart Disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and Pneumonia/ Influenza (Kramerow et al., 1999). All ethnic populations are prone disproportionately to some conditions rather than others in comparison to other ethnic groups. The causes for this are multiple and include ethnicity, culture, education, income, and barriers encountered when accessing health care. Cultural differences regarding diet and exercise may combine to predispose individuals to some of these conditions. For African Americans, these conditions includes: Hypertension, coronary artery disease, stroke, end stage renal disease, dementia, diabetes, and certain cancers (Mouton, 1997). ...

Chapter 2 Outline
There are major disparities in health and life expectancy between developed, developing, and least developed countries. Morbidity and mortality rates are much higher in developing and least developed countries due to issues like malnutrition, lack of access to healthcare, and infectious diseases. Social determinants like poverty, education, gender, and race also significantly impact health outcomes both between and within countries. Improving health will require addressing both direct medical issues and underlying social and economic factors.
Chapter 4Descriptive Epidemiology Person, Place, TimeLe
Descriptive epidemiology involves characterizing disease distribution and identifying potential risk factors. It describes person, place, and time factors like age, sex, race, and geographic location. Descriptive studies include case reports, case series, and cross-sectional surveys. They identify health problems but do not determine causation, while analytic studies follow to investigate causes through hypotheses testing. Social factors like SES strongly influence health outcomes.
Health Care101
This document summarizes key aspects of women's health, including leading causes of death and conditions that disproportionately affect women. It discusses health issues specific to women like reproductive health and cancers. It also explains how some common conditions like heart disease, lung cancer, and diabetes present differently and may be more severe for women. Ensuring women receive appropriate diagnosis and treatment requires addressing gaps in understanding these gender differences and improving access to women-centered healthcare.
Do any of the following phrases sound familiar It’s nothing to wor.docx
Do any of the following phrases sound familiar: “It’s nothing to worry yourself sick over,” “I was sick with worry,” or “Don’t stress yourself out”?
These are not just warnings or expressions about too much negative mental activity. What does it mean to worry to the point of sickness? What does it look like to stress yourself out? For you, it could be a bout with insomnia. For someone else, too much worry could result in an upset stomach. Yet for another, excessive stress for a long period of time could contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.
The type of illness that results from too much stress depends on a variety of factors. Your age, gender, ethnic heritage, culture, and even geographical location all influence your response to developing stress-related illnesses. Some populations are more vulnerable to the effects of stress, just as some populations are more susceptible to certain diseases. Population-based health care focuses on assessing health needs, planning culturally sensitive prevention and intervention programs, and improving public health.
In this context, populations are groups of people defined by a common condition that perhaps need focused health education, prevention programs, or treatment. The following are some examples of populations:
Pregnant women
Military personnel returning from war
Those with low socioeconomic status
Those experiencing discrimination
Refugees
Those with asthma
The elderly
Those experiencing significant loss
Illegal immigrants
Those with cardiovascular disease
Adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse
Victims of crime
Those with serious mental illness
Whether it is poverty, grief, or discrimination, the variety of stressors that members of these populations might encounter does not vanish overnight. As a result, the persistence of stress can contribute to long-lasting illness or chronic disease, such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and arthritis. Seventy percent of all deaths in the United States are due to chronic disease. Fifty percent of Americans have at least one chronic disease. Chronic diseases are the most common and expensive diseases facing the world and since most chronic diseases have modifiable risk factors, most are preventable. The most common modifiable risks are poor diet, lack of exercise, and tobacco, alcohol, or drug use.

DISPARITIES IN HEALTH AND HEALTH CARE :-
~ It is well documented that ethnic/racial minorities are disproportionately affected by many
health care conditions that impact their health in comparison to their white counterparts. Many
reasons are cited for these disparities, including socioeconomic status, health behaviors of the
minority groups , access to health care environmental factors, and direct and indirect
manifestations of discrimination. Other reasons cited for health disparities include lack of health
insurance, over dependence on publically funded facilities by minority groups, and barriers to
health care such as insufficient transportation, geographical location (not enough providers in an
area), and cost of services.
~ Focusing efforts to eliminate unequal burdens in health and health care can strengthen existing
solutions and policy formation related to this issue. Therefore, the purposes of this article are :-
(a) define disparities in health and health care,
(b) describe current health disparities impacting ethnic/racial groups,
(c) review historical factors associated with existing disparities in ethnic/racial groups
(d) present challenges and solutions to alleviate these disparities.
~ Definitions of Disparities in Health and Health Care
The four major ethnic/racial groups frequently cited in the literature and addressed in this article
include, African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, and Asian Pacific Islander.
Traditionally these four groups, together with immigrants, the poor, and mentally retarded, have
experienced unequal burdens in health and health care reflected by high morbidity and mortality
rates. While much has been written about health disparities between the four groups cited above
and their white counterparts, African Americans represent the largest minority group and have
experienced much discrimination in this country. As a result, more citations can be found in the
literature about disparities and discrimination in this population group than for other ethnic/racial
groups.
Disparities in health are defined as unequal burdens in disease morbidity and mortality rates
experienced by ethnic/racial groups as compared to the dominant group. Causes of health
disparities include poor education, health behaviors of the minority group, poverty (inadequate
financial resources), and environmental factors. Most of these factors are access related.
\"Disparities in health care are defined as racial or ethnic differences in the quality of health care
that are not due to access-related factors or clinical needs, preferences and appropriateness of
intervention\". Causes of disparities in health care relate to quality and include provider/patient
relationships, health providers of the future, provider bias and discrimination, and patient
variables such as mistrust of the health .

Ch. 2 Comparing Vulnerable GroupsLearning ObjectivesAfter re.docx
This document discusses how age affects vulnerability in different populations. It explains that infants and the elderly are among the most vulnerable due to reliance on others. Teen mothers and children face higher risks of low birthweight. Elderly individuals are more prone to abuse and chronic illnesses. Young adults ages 18-24 experience the highest rates of HIV diagnosis, mental illness, and homicide, while suicide is most common in those over 65. Comparing vulnerability across age groups provides insight into targeting health resources.
omolafearticle
This study examined the association between family history of type 2 diabetes and health beliefs and physical activity levels in African Americans. The researchers surveyed 133 African American churchgoers about their family history of diabetes, knowledge of diabetes risk factors, perceptions of susceptibility and severity of diabetes, and physical activity levels. They found that those with a family history of diabetes had greater knowledge of risk factors, were more likely to feel concern about developing diabetes influenced their health behaviors, and engaged in significantly more physical activity than those without a family history. The study suggests family history of diabetes may promote greater preventative behaviors by increasing perceived risk and health beliefs related to diabetes in African Americans.

This document discusses risk factors and lifestyle as they relate to American culture and health. It defines risk factors as characteristics or behaviors that increase the risk of disease, and lists the top four as smoking, high blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, and obesity. Lifestyle is defined as the typical way a culture lives. The top four causes of death in the U.S. have changed drastically from 1900 to 2010, with communicable diseases being replaced by noncommunicable diseases like heart disease and cancer. Factors contributing to this change include migration bringing new diseases in 1900 and advances in medicine allowing treatment of communicable illnesses. Obesity and bike ownership rates also contribute to differences in life expectancy between countries.

Epidemiology Paper
This summary provides an overview of an epidemiology paper on respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections in children. The paper discusses the epidemiological triangle as it relates to RSV, describing the agent (RSV virus), host (infants and young children), and environment (fall, winter, early spring seasons). It also covers the types of epidemiology (descriptive and analytic) and levels of prevention (primary, secondary, tertiary) for RSV infections.
Healthinequalities
The document discusses health disparities, which are population-specific differences in disease presence, health outcomes, and access to healthcare. It provides examples of disparities based on race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and disability status. Certain racial/ethnic minority groups have higher rates of cancer, diabetes, AIDS, asthma, and other diseases. Women experience higher rates of certain diseases. LGBT populations also face some health disparities. Those with disabilities experience disparities as well. Intersectionality considers how factors like race, gender, etc. interact. Access barriers include communication issues, physical access, financial access, and a lack of trust due to past discrimination.

Aging and New Disease Pattern
This document discusses aging and new disease patterns. It describes an epidemiological transition where chronic and degenerative diseases are replacing infectious diseases as the leading causes of death and illness globally. This is due to improvements in healthcare and living standards that have led to lower mortality and fertility rates. The burden of non-communicable diseases like heart disease, cancer and diabetes is increasing and projected to account for over half of the disease burden in developing countries by 2030. Early life health conditions and malnutrition are also linked to increased risk of adult diseases and disabilities in old age.
Global health introduction
This document provides an introduction to global health. It defines global health as health problems that transcend national boundaries and are best addressed through international cooperation. Reasons for interest in global health include moral duty, public diplomacy, and investment in self-protection. Key challenges are limited past resources, uncoordinated present efforts wasting resources, lack of stable leadership, and high turnover causing strategic uncertainty. The future direction of global health depends on expanding the talent pool in developing countries, effective disease prevention and treatment systems, and strengthening health infrastructure.

Heart Disease Mortality Rate
This document discusses potential causal relationships between institutional racism in the United States and high heart disease mortality rates among middle-aged African American males. It suggests that racism may contribute to heart disease indirectly by causing depression, stress, and fear of medical treatment (iatrophobia) stemming from a history of unethical medical experimentation on African Americans. It also discusses how mass incarceration of African Americans through the War on Drugs has disproportionately impacted their communities and health. The document concludes that eliminating institutional racism could help reduce heart disease in African American males by reducing associated depression, stress, and barriers to healthcare access and treatment.
African-American Health Disparities
African Americans in Wisconsin have significantly higher rates of poverty, lower education levels, and younger median age compared to the total Wisconsin population. The top three leading causes of death for African Americans are cancer, heart disease, and unintentional injury. However, the death rate for diabetes is over two times greater and for homicide is 14.7 times greater for African Americans compared to whites. Risk factors such as smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity are also higher among African Americans. Environmental and socioeconomic factors like living in urban areas with more exposure to pollution, lower SES, and lack of access to healthcare all contribute to the health disparities seen between African Americans and whites in Wisconsin.
UCB Causes of health problems among African and Indian Americans.docx
1) African Americans and American Indians face similar health issues like diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but the causes and challenges differ. For diabetes, the rates are higher for African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanic Americans.
2) Talking circle interventions could be used to address health problems in these communities. Talking circles allow for open discussion and sharing of experiences in a supportive environment.
3) Hypertension disproportionately impacts African Americans and is linked to cultural and social factors like racism and stress in addition to genetics. High blood pressure is much more common among African American males and females compared to other groups.

In a bid to control the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans, it is important to examine a number of attributes of culture that can empower a person towards changing a behavior. The factors may be positive, existential, and negative. Existential factors may be not harmful but need to be acknowledged. The importance of a family cannot be ignored especially because of the support they provide to diabetic patients. Family is therefore a positive cultural value which will assist in managing diabetes disease. This paper therefore seeks to address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within the dimension of cultural empowerment applies to the African American group.
It is important to explore by identifying several cultural beliefs and practices that are positive, existential and negative. Positive factors are likely to lead to an improvement by reducing the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Existential factors are existing cultural values and beliefs that may have no harmful health consequences. Cultural practices that may act as barriers in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans are the negative factors. Example of these negative practices includes poor nutrition leading to obesity.
Positive Factors
The positive factors which will influence management and control of diabetes among the African Americans include spirituality and family. For example, talking about a family affair with diabetes will make a great impact in controlling diabetes among the African Americans. This is because it will create awareness of how to handle and deal with diabetes. Spirituality will have a positive impact in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. African Americans who have spiritual faith are likely to engage in activities which will reduce the prevalence of the disease.
Existential Factors
Existential factors include faith healing. A belief in faith healing is a factor which is likely to reduction in prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Individuals who are religious are likely to visit religious leaders to seek healing and intervention. Many individuals confess that they got healed after being prayed for by the Pastors and other religious leaders. This is attributed to believing in faith healing.
Negative Factors
Consumption of “comfort foods” is common in the diet of the African Americans. These foods contain high fat, sugar, and calorie contents. Example of negative cultural factors includes unhealthy traditional foods. Poor nutrition among the African Americans is more l.

Certain racial/ethnic minority groups have higher rates of cancer, diabetes, AIDS, asthma, and other diseases. Women experience higher rates of certain diseases. LGBT populations also face some health disparities. Those with disabilities experience disparities as well. Intersectionality considers how factors like race, gender, etc. interact. Access barriers include communication issues, physical access, financial access, and a lack of trust due to past discrimination.
How Racism Affects Health
Racism Has Adverse Health Effects, New Study By DR. BILL J. RELEFORD, D.P.M. Over recent years there has been a remarkable increase in scientific research looking at the various ways racism adversely affects health.
Aging and New Disease Pattern
This document discusses aging and new disease patterns. It describes an epidemiological transition where chronic and degenerative diseases are replacing infectious diseases as the leading causes of death and illness globally. This is due to improvements in healthcare and living standards that have led to lower mortality and fertility rates. The burden of non-communicable diseases like heart disease, cancer and diabetes is increasing and projected to account for over half of the disease burden in developing countries by 2030. Early life health conditions and malnutrition are also linked to increased risk of adult diseases and disabilities in old age.
Global health introduction
This document provides an introduction to global health. It defines global health as health problems that transcend national boundaries and are best addressed through international cooperation. Reasons for interest in global health include moral duty, public diplomacy, and investment in self-protection. Key challenges are limited past resources, uncoordinated present efforts wasting resources, lack of stable leadership, and high turnover causing strategic uncertainty. The future direction of global health depends on expanding the talent pool in developing countries, effective disease prevention and treatment systems, and strengthening health infrastructure.
A Quantitative Analysis of Perceptions of Health, Family History and Health O...

Heart Disease Mortality Rate
This document discusses potential causal relationships between institutional racism in the United States and high heart disease mortality rates among middle-aged African American males. It suggests that racism may contribute to heart disease indirectly by causing depression, stress, and fear of medical treatment (iatrophobia) stemming from a history of unethical medical experimentation on African Americans. It also discusses how mass incarceration of African Americans through the War on Drugs has disproportionately impacted their communities and health. The document concludes that eliminating institutional racism could help reduce heart disease in African American males by reducing associated depression, stress, and barriers to healthcare access and treatment.
African-American Health Disparities
African Americans in Wisconsin have significantly higher rates of poverty, lower education levels, and younger median age compared to the total Wisconsin population. The top three leading causes of death for African Americans are cancer, heart disease, and unintentional injury. However, the death rate for diabetes is over two times greater and for homicide is 14.7 times greater for African Americans compared to whites. Risk factors such as smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity are also higher among African Americans. Environmental and socioeconomic factors like living in urban areas with more exposure to pollution, lower SES, and lack of access to healthcare all contribute to the health disparities seen between African Americans and whites in Wisconsin.
UCB Causes of health problems among African and Indian Americans.docx
1) African Americans and American Indians face similar health issues like diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but the causes and challenges differ. For diabetes, the rates are higher for African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanic Americans.
2) Talking circle interventions could be used to address health problems in these communities. Talking circles allow for open discussion and sharing of experiences in a supportive environment.
3) Hypertension disproportionately impacts African Americans and is linked to cultural and social factors like racism and stress in addition to genetics. High blood pressure is much more common among African American males and females compared to other groups.

In a bid to control the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans, it is important to examine a number of attributes of culture that can empower a person towards changing a behavior. The factors may be positive, existential, and negative. Existential factors may be not harmful but need to be acknowledged. The importance of a family cannot be ignored especially because of the support they provide to diabetic patients. Family is therefore a positive cultural value which will assist in managing diabetes disease. This paper therefore seeks to address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within the dimension of cultural empowerment applies to the African American group.
It is important to explore by identifying several cultural beliefs and practices that are positive, existential and negative. Positive factors are likely to lead to an improvement by reducing the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Existential factors are existing cultural values and beliefs that may have no harmful health consequences. Cultural practices that may act as barriers in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans are the negative factors. Example of these negative practices includes poor nutrition leading to obesity.
Positive Factors
The positive factors which will influence management and control of diabetes among the African Americans include spirituality and family. For example, talking about a family affair with diabetes will make a great impact in controlling diabetes among the African Americans. This is because it will create awareness of how to handle and deal with diabetes. Spirituality will have a positive impact in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. African Americans who have spiritual faith are likely to engage in activities which will reduce the prevalence of the disease.
Existential Factors
Existential factors include faith healing. A belief in faith healing is a factor which is likely to reduction in prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Individuals who are religious are likely to visit religious leaders to seek healing and intervention. Many individuals confess that they got healed after being prayed for by the Pastors and other religious leaders. This is attributed to believing in faith healing.
Negative Factors
Consumption of “comfort foods” is common in the diet of the African Americans. These foods contain high fat, sugar, and calorie contents. Example of negative cultural factors includes unhealthy traditional foods. Poor nutrition among the African Americans is more l.

1. In accordance with FAA regulations that require commercial airline pilots to retire at age 60, Fast Airlines has a broader policy that requires that all member of a flight crew – pilots, co-pilots, and flight engineers – must retire at age 60. Richard worked as a flight engineer for Fast Airlines for more than 25 years, and, when he approached the age of 60, he informed Fast Airlines that he felt that he was as able as ever to perform the duties of a flight engineer, that he had more experience as a flight engineer than any other employee of Fast Airlines, and that he wanted to work as a flight engineer beyond his 60th birthday. Fast Airlines responded to Richard’s request by agreeing that he was one of the airline’s most valuable employees and that his performance evaluations confirmed that he was as able as ever to perform the duties of flight engineer, but that company policy required that he retire. Is this age discrimination? Why, or why not? Could Fast Airline’s policy be modified to avoid the issue of age discrimination? How?

2. William worked for a utilities company, Power, Inc., in an installation and maintenance position which sometimes required that William use man-lift equipment and climb utility poles. William was obese, and the utility company had safety regulations that required that employees who worked in William’s position not weigh more than the load limits of the equipment that was regularly used in that position. William weighed more than the safe load limits of the equipment used in his position, so his supervisor made sure that the job assignments given to William did not require him to use the man lift equipment or to climb utility poles. As part of a regular workers’ compensation insurance review, the insurance company for Power, Inc. determined that William’s weight presented an unreasonable risk of injury if he continued to work in the installation and maintenance position, so William’s supervisor advised William that he would have to lose weight in order to continue being employed by Power, Inc. Although William tried to lose weight, he was not able to lose enough to satisfy the insurance company. William said his inability to lose weight was due to the fact that he suffered from a lack of self-confidence and that he had never been able to control his weight. When William did not lose the weight necessary for him to perform his duties safely as determined by the insurance company, he was terminated. Did Power, Inc. improperly discriminate against William on the basis of a disability?

1. In the first paragraph, describe some of the challenges Chinese immigrants faced (please choose different ones and find a direct quote)?
Chinese immigrants faced many challenges. They faced challenges in their homeland like “unemployment, high taxation, growing population pressure, and natural disasters such as flooding” (Lee, p. 4). The people that were most affected by these difficulties were usually the poverty stricken and those with little to no voice. When reading about Chinese immigrants the Push-Pull theory was extremely apparent from the beginning of the chapter. The first paragraph sets a tone on what Chinese people (especially those who were poor) thought of America and the possibilities of wealth and opportunities it contained. The “push” factors that lead Chinese immigrants out of their homeland was their oppressive government, unemployment, political turmoil, and pressures that came with the growing population. To understand the “pull” factors that lead Chinese immigrants to reach for America, you did not have to read very far because Lee makes it easy on you by making his very first sentence in chapter 1 state, “the Chinese characters for “America” consist of the compound “mei” meaning beautiful, “guo” meaning country. Therefore, regardless of dialect, the Chinese call America “beautiful country” (mei gok in Cantonese, and mei guo in Mandarin)” (Lee, p.1). Many Chinese immigrants settled in Hawaii and California. The Chinese called California “gold mountain,” and this could be because there was actual gold found and also because of the opportunities for work and a possibly a new life where anything was possible (Lee, p. 6).
The immigrants that came from China during the period of 1840 and 1900 were mostly poor and illiterate men who were laborers. There were about two and a half million people who left China and settled in places like Hawaii, California, Canada, Australia, and so on (Lee, p. 4). Once in America, Chinese immigrants soon learned that the land of opportunities and beauty was a lot harder to come by. Lee states that, “although their search was for gold, many ended up in coal mines, railroad construction, and service work (e.g., as cooks, laundry workers, and shopkeepers). Chinese pioneers began to establish Chinatowns, either by necessity or by choice, and started to recreate and reproduce a perception of community,”(Lee, p. 6). White Americans seemed open to the idea of cheap labor and took full advantage of the fact that Chinese immigrants needed not only passage but jobs, so they entered into work/passage contracts or “a form of forced slave labor to afford their passage to Southeast Asian countries, the Kingdom of Hawai’i and the mainland United States,” (Lee, p.7). According to Lee, Chinese laborers were exploited and treated harshly, much like African slaves were.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

We can get a better understanding of what the cause might be of these different types of illnesses and medical conditions. We can learn the backgrounds of where these illnesses and medical conditions started from. It will give us a basic idea of different medical conditions that is very common in our culture. Comments 15 points each – Addressing classmate by name 2 points Content with in-text citation – 8 points References in correct APA – 5 points 2. It is important to study African American health because, Life expectancy at birth has historically been shorter for African American than other American, but the differences disappear or reverse themselves at older ages, creating the “Crossover Phenomenon”. The leading causes of death among African American age 25 and over are: Heart Disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and Pneumonia/ Influenza (Kramerow et al., 1999). All ethnic populations are prone disproportionately to some conditions rather than others in comparison to other ethnic groups. The causes for this are multiple and include ethnicity, culture, education, income, and barriers encountered when accessing health care. Cultural differences regarding diet and exercise may combine to predispose individuals to some of these conditions. For African Americans, these conditions includes: Hypertension, coronary artery disease, stroke, end stage renal disease, dementia, diabetes, and certain cancers (Mouton, 1997).
