The first step is to accurately measure their fear of deportation.Approach: We used an exploratory sequential mixed methods design. Eligibility criteria were that research participants be ages 18-34 years; Latinx; cisgender male; having had sex with another male; residing in the District of Columbia metro area; and not a US citizen or legal permanent resident. In Study 1, we used in-depth interviews and thematic analysis. Using participants' interview responses, we inductively generated 15 items for a fear of deportation scale. In Study 2, we used survey data to assess the scale's psychometric properties. We conducted independent samples t-test on the associations between scale scores and barriers to healthcare access.Findings: For the 20 participants in Study 1, fear of deportation resulted in chronic anxiety. Participants managed their fear through vigilance, and behaviors restricting their movement and social network engagement. In Study 2, we used data from 86 mostly undocumented participants. The scale was internally consistent (α = 0.89) and had a single factor. Those with higher fear of deportation scores were significantly more likely to report avoiding healthcare because they were worried about their immigration status (p = 0.007).Originality: We described how fear of deportation limits healthcare access for immigrant Latinx MSM.Research implications: Future research should examine fear of deportation and HIV risk among immigrant Latinx MSM.","PeriodicalId":80360,"journal":{"name":"Advances in medical sociology","volume":"21 ","pages":"103-131"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11165931/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141307571","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}

Informed consent provisions have been a prominent trend in state-level abortion lawmaking in the United States in recent years. Modeled on the practice of securing informed consent for medical procedures, informed consent provisions stipulate the information a person must receive before they can consent to an abortion. Informed consent provisions purportedly require that this information be objective, scientifically accurate, and non-judgmental. Through an analysis of informed consent provisions in Texas abortion legislation from 1993 to 2015, this chapter explores how such provisions employ medical and biomedical tropes to frame regulations that restrict access to abortion care as ostensibly protecting women’s health and safety. I find that informed consent legislation in Texas selectively borrows from medical and biomedical lexicons, cites strategic empirical evidence, and co-opts medical techniques and experts in ways that encumber abortion access.","PeriodicalId":80360,"journal":{"name":"Advances in medical sociology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1108/s1057-629020190000020015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48860685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inflammation among Children: Evidence of an Immigrant Advantage? 儿童炎症:移民优势的证据?

{"title":"Inflammation among Children: Evidence of an Immigrant Advantage?","authors":"Kammi K Schmeer","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Past research on the immigrant health paradox suggests that children with immigrant parents may have a health advantage over those with U.S.-born parents, especially if the parent is a recent immigrant. Other research emphasizes the social and economic challenges children with immigrant parents face, in part due to disadvantaged social class and racial/ethnic positions. Underlying physiological changes due to chronic stress exposures among children in immigrant families is one potential health disadvantage that may not yet be apparent in traditional health measures. To explore these biological disparities during childhood, I use national biomarker and survey data from NHANES (N=11,866) to evaluate parent nativity and educational status associations with low-grade inflammation, indicated by C-reactive Protein (CRP), in children ages 2-15 years. I find that children with an immigrant parent, and particularly a low-education immigrant parent, have higher CRP, net of birth, BMI and other factors, than children with a U.S. born parent with either a low or higher education. Comparing children with low-educated parents, those with a foreign-born parent have higher predicted CRP. The findings from this study provide new evidence that children living in immigrant families in the U.S. may be facing higher levels of chronic stress exposure, as indicated by the increased risk of low-grade inflammation, than those with U.S.-born parents. The physiological changes related to increased risk of inflammation could set children in immigrant families on pathways towards mental and physical health problems throughout childhood and later in the life course.","PeriodicalId":80360,"journal":{"name":"Advances in medical sociology","volume":"19 ","pages":"275-295"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6402606/pdf/nihms969789.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37040160","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}
