简要总结
Background:
Inequalities in COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and death in under-studied, under-represented, and under-reported groups of people are severe. A growing number of studies have assessed the impact of individual risk factors. But few studies have assessed which factors are the greatest drivers of COVID-19 disparities from a wider perspective.
Objective:
To understand the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on minority women and their families to assist in developing community-based programs to help in recovery.
Eligibility:
Healthy people aged 18 and older who reside in North Carolina.
Design:
Participants will take a 45-minute online survey. The survey will cover their demographics, community, health, lifestyle, household, and environment.
Participants may choose to have tests. They may visit the Clinical Research Unit. They may also have a home visit for these tests. In some cases, they may mail samples to the study team in prepaid envelopes.
Participants may take an optional 15 minute survey about their reproductive history.
Participants may give a blood sample.
Participants may give a urine sample. They will fill out a log and return with their sample.
Participants may give saliva samples.
Participants may give toenail samples from each toe.
Participants may give dust samples. They will be given 8 alcohol swabs. Two will be for testing. They will be asked to swipe a total of 3 door frames. Each door frame should be in a different room of the house.
Participants may be given silicone wristbands to wear for 1 week. This is to measure their exposure to air pollutants.
Participants may be contacted in the future for follow-up. They may be contacted by phone, email, or letter.
详细描述
Study Description:
This is a cross-sectional population-based survey designed within a syndemic framework to characterize the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on women in under-served, under-studied, under-represented, and under-reported (U4) populations. We hypothesize that U4 women are experiencing and will have experienced a worsening of mental, physical, and socio-economic status as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and that pre-pandemic indicators of U4 status and related exposures will be associated with adverse mental, physical, and SES effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study ultimately seeks to collect baseline data for a long-term follow-up study of U4 women, as well as identify high impact targets for public health interventions to build resiliency in U4 communities.
Objectives:
Primary Objectives:
- Characterize the mental, physical, and socio-economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on women in under-served, under-studied, under-represented, and under-reported (U4) populations within a syndemic framework.
- Determine whether there was a worsening of mental, physical, and socio-economic status before, during, and following the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Characterize the biological, behavioral, environmental, sociocultural, and structural impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on reproductive risk factors among U4 women.
