Discrimination, psychosocial stress, and health among Latin American immigrants in Oregon
Open accessAbstract
Chronic psychosocial stress related to discrimination has been shown to be associated with biological measures such as elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP), increased body fat, and higher fasting glucose levels. Few studies have examined these relationships in immigrant populations. The present study recruited a sample of 132 Oregon Latino immigrant adults to investigate the relationships between perceived discrimination and several health measures (blood pressure, body mass index [BMI], and fasting glucose). Results indicate that perceived discrimination stress predicted elevated SBP among men but not among women. Perceived discrimination was significantly higher among obese women than among women of normal BMI. The same pattern was not observed for men. Further, a strong trend relationship was detected: the higher women's reported discrimination stress, the higher their fasting glucose levels. Again, this pattern was not observed for men. These results suggest that chronic psychosocial stress plays an important role in disease risk among Latin American immigrants, and that male and female immigrants may have distinctive physiological responses. If confirmed, these findings may have important clinical and public health implications for chronic disease prevention among Latinos.

Perceived discrimination that was experienced as stressful predicted poorer health across all three measures (blood pressure, body mass index, fasting glucose) among Latino immigrants in Oregon, with some sex differences evident.
“Their results reveal that perceived discrimination that was experienced as stressful predicted poorer health across all three measures, with some sex differences evident.”

The Abstract and Results and Discussion report sex-specific associations across the three measures: discrimination stress predicted elevated systolic blood pressure in men, was associated with obesity in women, and showed a trend toward higher fasting glucose in women. Saying it “predicted poorer health across all three measures” overstates the findings: the glucose result was a trend, and the paper does not establish that discrimination stress predicted increased BMI.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
