  2. Article: IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON PUBLIC HOSPITALS IN THE UNITED STATES.

    Abstract The country's public hospitals, guided by the principles established by the first such hospital in 1736 and codified through the policies of the Surgeon General in 1936, have played an outsized role as safety net institutions for disadvantaged populations. Public hospitals are predominantly located in urban, under-resourced neighborhoods and treat a larger percentage of low-income individuals who are uninsured or enrolled in Medicaid. In assessing the status of public hospitals and urban communities in the twenty-first century, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was evaluated at two high-performing public hospitals, Grady Memorial Hospital and Rush University Medical Center, and a network of safety hospitals affiliated with the Missouri Hospital Association. COVID-19 infections and death rates stratified by race and ethnicity were examined. The results suggest a trend toward lower mortality in African American patients in the first year of the pandemic and possible adverse outcomes in a subset of rural hospitals in Missouri. This study highlights the need to expand funding and support for the nation's essential hospitals.

    Abstract Haemodialysis is extremely limited in low-income countries. Access to haemodialysis is further curtailed in areas of active conflict and political instability. Haemodialysis in the Tigray region of Ethiopia has been dramatically affected by the ongoing civil war. Rapid assessment from the data available at Ayder Hospital's haemodialysis unit registry, 2015-2021, shows that enrollment of patients in the haemodialysis service has plummeted since the war broke out. Patient flow has decreased by 37.3% from the previous yearly average. This is in contrary to the assumption that enrollment would increase because patients could not travel to haemodialysis services in the rest of the country due to the complete blockade. Compared to the prewar period, the mortality rate has doubled in the first year after the war broke out, i.e., 28 deaths out of 110 haemodialysis recipients in 2020 vs. 43 deaths out of 81 haemodialysis recipients in the year 2021. These untoward outcomes reflect the persistent interruption of haemodialysis supplies, lack of transportation to the hospital, lack of financial resources, and the unavailability of basic medications due to the war and the ongoing economic and humanitarian blockade of Tigray in Northern Ethiopia. In the setting of this medical catastrophe, the international community should mobilize to advocate for resumption of life-saving haemodialysis treatment in Ethiopia's Tigray region and put pressure on the Ethiopian government to allow the passage of life-saving medicines, essential medical equipment, and consumables for haemodialysis into Tigray.

    Abstract There has been increased focus on health disparities and how to address them (Baciu et al., 2017; National Institutes of Health, 2021; Williams et al., 2021). Greater integration of social determinants of health (SDoH) education into undergraduate medical education has been identified as one possible intervention (Mangold et al., 2019; Doobay-Persaud et al., 2019; Lewis et al., 2020). The Liaison Committee on Medical Education places this education among its accreditation requirements (Mangold et al., 2019); however, no consensus exists on the most effective programming for training culturally competent physicians. This paper describes the development, implementation, and reception of one such program; a combined two-week Diversity Retreat and Washington University Medical Plunge at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. This program exposed students to the historical, social, and cultural context of health disparities in the city and challenged them to recognize their own biases. Survey data showed that the program was well received and increased learners' subjective understandings of SDoH, the background of St. Louis, and patient-centered care. Learners also identified separation of SDoH material from other aspects of the curriculum and limited reinforcement of SDoH as areas for improvement. In 2020, the program was expanded and integrated into the broader curriculum. Here, we present WUMP, an example of one approach to SDoH training for medical students that was grounded in the local political and social context of St. Louis and prepared students to learn, train, and practice within that context.

    Abstract Many medical accreditation bodies agree that medical students should be trained to care for diverse patient populations. However, the teaching methods that medical schools employ to accomplish this goal vary widely. The purpose of this work is to summarize current cultural competency teaching for medical students and their evaluation methods. A scoping review was completed by searching the databases PubMed, Scopus, MedEdPORTAL, and MEDLINE for the search terms "medical education" and "cultural competency" or "cultural competence." Results were summarized using a narrative synthesis technique. One hundred fifty-four articles on cultural competency interventions for medical students were systematically identified from the literature and categorized by teaching methods, length of intervention, and content. Fifty-six articles had a general focus, and ninety-eight articles were focused on specific populations including race/ethnicity, global health, socioeconomic status, language, immigration status, disability, spirituality at the end of life, rurality, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer. About 54% of interventions used lectures as a teaching modality, 45% of the interventions described were mandatory, and 9.7% of interventions were not formally evaluated. The authors advocate for expansion and more rigorous analysis of teaching methods, teaching philosophies, and outcome evaluations with randomized controlled trials that compare the relative effectiveness of general and population-specific cultural competency interventions.
