The Johns Hopkins Urban Health Institute (UHI) has partnered with the Health Sciences Informatics Department and Welch Medical Library at Johns Hopkins University to conduct an extensive, systematic review of the research that has been carried out in Baltimore. This project began in 2005 to identify the published health-related literature, 1990 to the present, focused on Baltimore. More specifically, researchers have examined the occurrence of health conditions and their determinants, health care utilization issues, interventions to improve health, and gaps in health services.
Researchers initially retrieved over 4,000 articles about the health of populations in Baltimore, then narrowed the search to approximately 300 articles based on the quality of the publication. These articles have been fully reviewed for their content and will be placed in an online database available on this website. We anticipate the database to be accessible in early fall 2007.
