Studies have shown that racial disparity persists at all levels of social economic status.
“Similar to our finding, studies have shown that racial disparity persists at all levels of social economic status.26,27”
From Disparities in SGLT2 Inhibitor or Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonist Initiation Among Medicare-Insured Adults With CKD in the United States (2023) · cites this paper as [26]
The report’s introductory section describes racial and ethnic disparities in kidney-disease care and outcomes and says a chapter examines social determinants of health. Neither that passage nor the Notes About Race and Ethnicity establishes that disparities persist at all socioeconomic levels; searches for socioeconomic status, income, and education found no such comparison in our copy.

“The US Renal Data System annual data reported that Black patients had the highest prevalence of end-stage kidney disease in racial and ethnic groups from 2000 to 2019.(29) Our research team showed that Medicare-enrolled Black patients with CKD had a higher risk of developing hypoglycemia than White patients.”

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.
