Dr. I-Min Lee is an associate epidemiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, and a researcher on physical activity. She and her colleagues wanted to look at the basis for 10,000 steps and its validity. Their new study in JAMA Internal Medicine answers two questions about mortality: How many steps a day are associated with lowering the mortality rate? Does stepping intensity level make a difference in mortality when people take the same number of steps? Where does 10,000 steps a day come from? https://lnkd.in/dk6ZQ3f

I am excited to share a summary from the American Thoracic Society regarding our recent publication in the New England Journal of Medicine. This study emphasizes the clinical, occupational, and economic pros and cons of ignoring race in lung health assessments. The results will significantly impact Black health and clinical trials while the FDA mandates racial and ethnic diversity in clinical and biomedical research. We must prioritize our patients first. We can only do this by thoroughly assessing the downstream consequences of including or excluding race in lung function assessments on an individual patient and community level. #MedicalResearch #HealthEquity #LungHealth #PulmonaryMedicine
