“…Similar patterns were found in the separate analysis of Mexican births to foreign-born and US-born mothers for these conditions except for anotia/microtia (although elevated but not statistically significant). These findings are generally concordant with those reported by Shumate et al (2018), Padula et al (2017), and Hoyt et al (2014). Among infants born to non-Hispanic black women, prevalence was significantly lower for only one condition, pyloric stenosis, while higher prevalence was found for trisomy 13 and 18 among those with foreign-born mothers.…”

Objectives: We investigated differences in prevalence of major birth defects by maternal nativity within racial/ethnic groups for 27 major birth defects. Methods: Data from 11 population-based birth defects surveillance systems in the United States including almost 13 million live births (approximately a third of U.S. births) during 1999-2007 were pooled. We calculated prevalence estimates for each birth defect for five racial/ethnic groups. Using Poisson regression, crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (aPRs) were also calculated using births to US-born mothers as the referent group in each racial/ethnic group.

“…Previous research has shown variation in prevalence of this gene among different racial/ethnic groups, in which a C to T mutation at nucleotide 677 is a risk factor for cardiovascular defects and NTDs (Franco, Araújo, Guerreiro, Elion, & Zago, ; Wilken et al, ). Additionally, sociodemographic factors such as nativity, individual socioeconomic status, and neighborhood were not further explored, but may also impact the prevalence of birth defects (Kirby et al, ; Shumate, Hoyt, Liu, Kleinert, & Canfield, ).…”

Background There is considerable variability in the prevalence of birth defects among racial/ethnic groups. This study estimated birth defect prevalence among the less studied non‐Hispanic (NH) Asian/Pacific Islander (PI) and American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations in Texas relative to NH Whites. Methods Data were obtained from the Texas Birth Defect Registry from 1999 to 2015 for deliveries to Texas‐resident women who were NH White, NH Asian/PI, or AI/AN. This covers a live birth population of 2.6 million. Prevalence ratios and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated for NH Asian/PIs and AI/ANs (relative to NH Whites) for 44 birth defects using Poisson regression adjusting for maternal age. Results After adjustment there were 33 statistically significant prevalence ratios (aPRs). Among NH Asian/PIs, 23 defects had a lower aPR (0.38–0.86) and three defects had a higher aPR (1.19–2.50). AI/ANs had one defect with a significantly lower aPR (0.64) and six with a higher aPR (1.36–4.63). Conclusions Non‐Hispanic Asian/PIs generally have a lower prevalence ratio for many birth defects while AI/ANs have a higher prevalence ratio compared to NH Whites. These findings update the limited literature on this topic and warrant additional research to identify the true associations across a range of birth defects among these understudied racial/ethnic groups.

“…Importantly, this opens up avenues for other variations of the ICE that might incorporate explanatory factors other than income. In fact, several studies have already tested new ICE measures that account for spatial polarization of deprivation and privilege by housing tenure (owners vs. renters) [30], education (high vs. low) [71,72], as well as nativity (U.S. born vs. foreign) and PLOS ONE language (English vs. foreign language) [72]. While we find that ICE Race-Income accounts for a relatively large portion of the variance in the link between segregation and health, these new versions of the ICE may be useful in the effort to further disentangle this complex association and uncover additional underlying pathways.…”

Racialized economic segregation and health outcomes: A systematic review of studies that use the Index of Concentration at the Extremes for race, income, and their interaction

Extensive research shows that residential segregation has severe health consequences for racial and ethnic minorities. Most research to date has operationalized segregation in terms of either poverty or race/ethnicity rather than a synergy of these factors. A novel version of the Index of Concentration at the Extremes (ICERace-Income) specifically assesses racialized economic segregation in terms of spatial concentrations of racial and economic privilege (e.g., wealthy white people) versus disadvantage (e.g., poor Black people) within a given area. This multidimensional measure advances a more comprehensive understanding of residential segregation and its consequences for racial and ethnic minorities. The aim of this paper is to critically review the evidence on the association between ICERace-Income and health outcomes. We implemented the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines to conduct a rigorous search of academic databases for papers linking ICERace-Income with health. Twenty articles were included in the review. Studies focused on the association of ICERace-Income with adverse birth outcomes, cancer, premature and all-cause mortality, and communicable diseases. Most of the evidence indicates a strong association between ICERace-Income and each health outcome, underscoring income as a key mechanism by which segregation produces health inequality along racial and ethnic lines. Two of the reviewed studies examined racial disparities in comorbidities and health care access as potential explanatory factors underlying this relationship. We discuss our findings in the context of the extant literature on segregation and health and propose new directions for future research and applications of the ICERace-Income measure.
