Ramirez, Ian M. Thompson, and Leonel Vela    As America's most populous state goes, so goes the nation. And within that state, the 38 counties comprising South Texas--a highly populated, largely Hispanic area characterized by high uninsured rates and low numbers of health care providers--are emblematic of nationwide crises in public health.   The South Texas Health Status Review: A Health Disparities Roadmap brings health care disparities to light in instructive detail. Over thirty key health conditions and risk factors, such as breast cancer, diabetes, obesity, tuberculosis, smoking and alcohol use, lead exposure, birth defects, and homicide rates, are analyzed by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and location (urban or rural), and the results compared with the rest of Texas and the nation as a whole. A section on conclusions and recommendations outlines factors contributing to these conditions and offers suggestions for improvement. These important data should stimulate further population studies and provide impetus for targeted public health interventions and community outreach programs to reduce health inequities and advance care access in the state and the U.S. at large. Major health issues covered in the report include:   Communicable diseases Cancer incidence and mortality Maternal and child health Chronic diseases Behavioral risk factors in adults Environmental health issues Suicide, homicide, and vehicular mortality   The South Texas Health Status Review contains valuable lessons for researchers in health promotion and health disparities, as well as community health professionals. Policymakers involved in reducing health disparities will find it especially useful. 606 $aPublic health 606 $aEpidemiology 606 $aDemography 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aEpidemiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000 606 $aDemography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X25000 610 $aPhysics 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aEpidemiology. 615 0$aDemography. 615 14$aPublic Health. 615 24$aEpidemiology. 615 24$aDemography. 676 $a613 676 $a614 700 $aBevan$b Adrian$4auth$01160467 702 $aRamirez$b Amelie G$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aThompson$b Ian M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aVela$b Leonel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996210400903316 996 $aThe South Texas Health Status Review$93358676 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01575nas 2200541-- 450 001 9910304558503321 005 20260218110358.0 011 $a1880-7852 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2394253-8 035 $a(CKB)110978976774343 035 $a(CONSER)sf-85009347- 035 $a(DE-599)2394253-8 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110978976774343 100 $a20750720a19369999 --- a 101 0 $ajpn 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 $aActa Arachnologica 210 $aOsaka, Japan$cArachnological Society of East Asia 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 300 $aAlso Issed online. 311 08$aPrint version: Acta Arachnologica 0001-5202 (DLC)sf 85009347 (OCoLC)1460829 531 $aACTA ARACHNOL 531 0 $aActa arachnol. 606 $aSpiders$vPeriodicals 606 $aSpiders$zJapan 606 $aSpiders 606 $aAraignées$vPériodiques 606 $aSpiders$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01129749 606 $aArachnologie$2gtt 607 $aJapan$2fast$1https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJkT7GyCmyjxytDfqk6Yfq 608 $aPeriodical. 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 615 0$aSpiders 615 0$aSpiders 615 2$aSpiders. 615 6$aAraignées 615 7$aSpiders. 615 17$aArachnologie. 712 02$aTo?a Kumo Gakkai. 712 02$aNihon Kumo Gakkai. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910304558503321 920 $aexl_impl conversion 996 $aActa Arachnologica$92122880 997 $aUNINA
