abstract: 'OBJECTIVE: The United States benefits economically and socially from the
|
|
|
|
diverse skill-set and innovative contributions of immigrants. By
|
|
|
|
applying a socioecological framework with an equity lens, we aim to
|
|
|
|
provide an overview of the health of children in immigrant families
|
|
|
|
(CIF) in the United States, identify gaps in related research, and
|
|
|
|
suggest future areas of focus to advance health equity.
|
|
|
|
METHODS: The literature review consisted of identifying academic and
|
|
|
|
gray literature using a MeSH Database, Clinical Queries, and relevant
|
|
|
|
keywords in 3 electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and
|
|
|
|
BrowZine). Search terms were selected with goals of: 1) conceptualizing
|
|
|
|
a model of key drivers of health for CIF; 2) describing and classifying
|
|
|
|
key drivers of health for CIF; and 3) identifying knowledge gaps.
|
|
|
|
RESULTS: The initial search produced 1120 results which were screened
|
|
|
|
for relevance using a meta-narrative approach. Of these, 224 papers were
|
|
|
|
selected, categorized by topic, and reviewed in collaboration with the
|
|
|
|
authors. Key topic areas included patient and family outcomes,
|
|
|
|
institutional and community environments, the impact of public policy,
|
|
|
|
and opportunities for research. Key inequities were identified in health
|
|
|
|
outcomes; access to quality health care, housing, education, employment
|
|
|
|
opportunities; immigration policies; and inclusion in and funding for
|
|
|
|
research. Important resiliency factors for CIF included strong family
|
|
|
|
connections and social networks.
|
|
|
|
CONCLUSIONS: Broad structural inequities contribute to poor health
|
|
|
|
outcomes among immigrant families. While resiliency factors exist,
|
|
|
|
research on the impact of certain important drivers of health, such as
|
|
|
|
structural and cultural racism, is missing regarding this population.
|
|
|
|
More work is needed to inform the development and optimization of
|
|
|
|
programs and policies aimed at improving outcomes for CIF. However,
|
|
|
|
research should incorporate expertise from within immigrant communities.
|
|
|
|
Finally, interventions to improve outcomes for CIF should be considered
|
|
|
|
in the context of the socioecological model which informs the upstream
|
|
|
|
and downstream drivers of health outcomes.'
