摘要

在医学教科书中，肤色较深的人所占比例较低。这可能会造成我们系统中的不公平现象。我们评估了传染病教科书中的肤色表现，并比较了与社会鄙视相关的疾病和未被鄙视的疾病。描述与社会鄙视相关的疾病的图片中，肤色较深的人明显更常见。

We assessed skin color representation in infectious disease textbooks and compared diseases associated with social stigma to those not stigmatized. Images depicting conditions associated with social stigma were significantly more common on darker skin.
