  • Content and frequency of writing on diabetes bulletin boards: does race make a difference?

    Case S, Jernigan V, Gardner A, Ritter P, Heaney CA, Lorig KR. J Med Internet Res. 2009; 11 (2): e22

    Diabetes-related disparities are well documented among racial minority groups in the United States. Online programs hold great potential for reducing these disparities. However, little is known about how people of different races utilize and communicate in such groups. This type of research is necessary to ensure that online programs respond to the needs of diverse populations.
