Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Kidney Replacement Therapies Among Adults With Kidney Failure: An Observational Study of Variation by Patient Age
2022, American Journal of Kidney DiseasesOutcome disparities between African Americans and Caucasians in contemporary kidney transplant recipients
2017, American Journal of SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Multimodal interventions that focus on prevailing explanatory factors for these disparities are needed. Endeavors that limit the impact of socioeconomic and health care access disadvantages while also delivering a care model that is culturally acceptable and patient-centric are needed if researchers hope to substantially improve equity in transplant access on outcomes.8,34–37 The strengths of this analysis are that it includes a detailed assessment of all contemporary adult patients undergoing solitary renal transplantation within the United States; thus, the study population is a full representation of the target population.
