Research project funded by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases to study positive psychosocial factors affecting health outcomes in Black women with and without Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, using advanced data analysis techniques to inform health disparity interventions.
Description
This project explores the impact of positive psychosocial factors on health outcomes among Black women with and without Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Using latent profile analysis and natural language processing of online forums, the study aims to identify psychosocial phenotypes, examine their longitudinal effects on cardiovascular and renal health, and investigate inflammatory pathways mediating these effects. The research supports the career development of a doctoral student and aims to inform interventions to reduce health disparities.
