Abstrakt: A new report from the Department of Epidemiology explores the role of the "Superwoman" mindset in the cardiovascular health of African American women. The study suggests that African American women who endorse the Superwoman role and prioritize caregiving over self-care may have higher central systolic blood pressure and augmentation index, which could contribute to adverse cardiovascular health outcomes. The research highlights the potential negative health consequences of racism and sexism, as well as the need for further investigation into the impact of societal roles on health disparities.
