The aim of this study was to assess whether the pulse pressures (PPs) in people of African and South Asian descent differ from those of the European-origin White (henceforth, White) in the UK. A systematic literature review was carried out using MEDLINE 1966-2006 and EMBASE 1980-2006. The meta-analysis was performed using Cochrane review manager software (RevMan version 4.2; Oxford, UK). Thirteen studies were examined. Results for African descent men (n ¼ 9 studies) and women (n ¼ 7) indicated that African men and women had a higher mean PP than their White counterparts. Overall weighted mean difference (WMD)

Unveiling what is said in the colombian public health journals about race and ethnicity Revelando o que dizem sobre raça e etnia as revistas de saúde pública da ColômbiaEste artículo analiza cómo en investigaciones publicadas (período 1994-2011) en las tres principales revistas de salud pública de Colombia se conceptualiza, nomina e interpreta la categoría étnico-racial en relación a la población afrodescendiente en el país. Se identificó que es limitado el número de artículos publicados que abordan las nociones de raza o etnia; además, estas se usan de manera intercambiable, y no se conceptualiza ni se explícita el por qué ni cómo se recolectan estas categorías. Bajo la existencia de un racismo estructural, la inclusión de la dimensión etno-racial en las investigaciones de salud, contribuiría a identificar procesos y dinámicas que crean y recrean iniquidades etno-raciales en salud. PALABRAS CLAVE:Raza | etnia | salud | salud pública Resumen AbstractThis article analyzes how in published studies (1994)(1995)(1996)(1997)(1998)(1999)(2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011) in the three main public health journals of Colombia are conceptualized, operationalized and interpreted racial and ethnic categories in relation to the black population. It was identified that are limited the number of published articles that address race or ethnicity; in addition, those notions are used interchangeably, and; it is not showed how is conceptualized and collected those social categories. Under the existence of structural racism, including ethno-racial categories in health research could help to identify processes and dynamics that create and recreate health disparities based on race and ethnicity.

Foi possível identificar que é limitado o número de artigos publicados que abordam as noções de raça ou etnia; além do mais, estas se usam de maneira intercambiável, e não se conceitua nem se explicita o porquê, nem como se coletam estas categorias. Sob a existência de um racismo estrutural, a inclusão da dimensão étnico-racial nas pesquisas de saúde, contribuiria para a identificação de processos e dinâmicas que criam e recriam iniquidades étnico-raciais em saúde.
