The scoping review methodology was used to identify survey datasets that disaggregate data for NH, PI, or Filipinos. Healthdata.gov was searched, as there is not an official index of databases. The website was established by the United States (US) Department and Health and Human Services to increase accessibility of health data for entrepreneurs, researchers, and policy makers, with the ultimate goal of improving health outcomes. Using the search term 'survey,' 332 datasets were retrieved, many of which were duplicates from different years. Datasets were included that met the following criteria: (1) related to health; (2) disaggregated NH, PI, and/or Filipino subgroups; (3) administered in the US; (4) publicly available; (5) individual-level data; (6) self-reported information; and (7) contained data from 2010 or later. Fifteen survey datasets met the inclusion criteria. Two additional survey datasets were identified by colleagues. For each dataset, the dataset name, data source, years of the data availability, availability of disaggregated NH, PI, and/or Filipino data, data on health outcomes and social determinants of health, and website information were documented. This inventory of datasets should be of use to researchers who want to advance understanding of health disparities experienced by NH, PI, and Filipino populations in the US.","PeriodicalId":36659,"journal":{"name":"Hawai''i journal of health & social welfare","volume":"82 10 Suppl 1","pages":"104-110"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612417/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71414403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each Census race group, Census only provides the counts of those reported being single race (\"race alone\") and those reported of that specific race regardless of whether the individuals were multiracial or not (\"race alone or in (any) combination\"). The issue of how to classify Census multiracial individuals is especially important for the state of Hawai'i due to its large multiracial population. The current study developed the Stepwise Proportional Weighting Algorithm (SPWA) for single-race population estimation using US Census data for major race groups in the Census and their nested detailed races. Additionally, given that \"partial Native Hawaiian\" has often been treated as \"Native Hawaiian\" in health disparities studies in Hawai'i, the algorithm can also adjust for the unique partial Native Hawaiian race categorization. This paper describes the estimation process with the SPWA and demonstrates its ability to estimate single-races for the 5 most common race groups in Hawai'i. This new methodology addresses an important concern regarding how to classify multiracial individuals to strengthen health and health disparities research in Hawai'i.","PeriodicalId":36659,"journal":{"name":"Hawai''i journal of health & social welfare","volume":"82 10 Suppl 1","pages":"97-103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612413/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71414466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Potential Errors in Health Disparities Research Resulting from Lack of Unique Patient Identifiers: Analysis of Diabetes-related Preventable Hospitalizations.","authors":"Hyeong Jun Ahn","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"All-payer, population-level hospital discharge data have been used to identify health disparities across racial/ethnic and other demographic groups. However, researchers are often unable to identify unique patients in the data sets if a unique patient identifier is not provided. The lack of the unique patient identifier can result in biased estimates of research outcomes using discharge data. This could then mislead the researchers, public, or policy-makers who utilize such biased results. This study examined estimation bias of health disparities due to rehospitalizations considering diabetes-related preventable hospitalizations using 6 years of state-level data from Hawai'i Health Information Corporation. Different analyses methods showed different probabilities of having multiple visits by age, race/ethnicity and payer subgroups. Charge analysis results also showed that ignoring the multiple visits could result in significance error. For a patient with multiple hospitalizations, rehospitalizations are often dependent upon the discharge status of previous visits, and the independence assumption of the multiple visits may not be appropriate. Ignoring the multiple visits in population-level analyses could result in severe health disparities significance errors. In this hospitalization charge analysis, the Chinese group was not significantly different than the White group (relative risk ratio - RR: [95% CI]: 0.93 [0.80, 1.08]), while the difference was signficant (RR [95% CI]: 0.86 [0.77,0.96]) when the multiple visits were ignored.","PeriodicalId":36659,"journal":{"name":"Hawai''i journal of health & social welfare","volume":"82 10 Suppl 1","pages":"111-116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10612426/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71414442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More than half are cutaneous, with the remainder arising in the deep soft tissue, breast, bone or viscera, particularly the liver, spleen and heart. Mediastinal angiosarcomas are exceedingly uncommon. While epithelioid morphology is sometimes a minor component in conventional angiosarcoma, tumors with a predominance of epithelioid morphologic features are designated as epithelioid angiosarcoma (EAS). This is a report of a 58-year-old woman presenting with severe chest pain, accompanied by worsening dyspnea and dysphagia. Chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a large pericardial effusion and a bulky mediastinal mass. Biopsy revealed a malignant neoplasm with vascular differentiation consistent with high-grade EAS. By immunohistochemistry, epithelioid angiosarcomas express endothelial cell markers, such as CD31, CD34, ERG and FLI-1. A variable proportion express low molecular weight cytokeratin (CK), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) and CD30. The use of molecular techniques has proven useful in the diagnosis of this rare neoplasm. Targeted next generation sequencing showed aberrations in multiple genes including NRAS, KRAS, MYC and TP53.","PeriodicalId":36659,"journal":{"name":"Hawai''i journal of health & social welfare","volume":"82 9","pages":"208-212"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10485769/pdf/hjhsw8209_0208.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10220080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"An Examination of Practices and Barriers of Procedures Performed by Physicians in Rural Hawai'i.","authors":"Joseph W Turban, Eun Ah Cho, Weston McCue, Kelley Withy","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"There is an estimated shortage of 46 000 to 90 000 physicians in the US, especially in rural areas. Physicians working in rural areas often maintain a larger scope of practice compared to their urban counterparts. This scope may include performing procedures which may require additional training, and lack of that training may limit rural physicians' capability to perform procedures. Physicians practicing in rural areas of Hawai'i were surveyed about their scope of practice regarding procedures and the perceived hindrances in performing procedures. Physicians identified as rural practitioners and rural physicians attending local conferences were asked to participate. Forty-seven (out of 301) rural Hawai'i physicians participated in the survey, of which 89% reported performing procedures. The most common procedures performed included suture removal, incision and drainage, wound care, and suturing. Of the 47 respondents, a total of 28 physicians or 60% reported wishing to perform procedures but not doing so. The procedures physicians would like to perform included gynecological (36%), casting (21%) and wound care (14%). Barriers to performing procedures included lack of time (51%), inadequate training (37%), out of practice (22%), and poor reimbursement (17%). While most rural physicians in this study perform procedures, many would like to perform more. Lack of training and support are significant barriers to increasing scope of procedures performed. Medical schools, residencies, and continuing education programs should consider expanding training in these areas, especially for those planning to practice or currently practicing in rural areas.","PeriodicalId":36659,"journal":{"name":"Hawai''i journal of health & social welfare","volume":"82 8","pages":"183-187"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10407775/pdf/hjhsw8208_0183.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9984351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
