Dr. Aaron Baugh, a Black pulmonologist in California, believed that using race-correction in lung-function tests was a way to reduce health inequities. That was until he ran the numbers himself. Shocked by the results, he began to study the harmful effects of race correction on Black patients with lung disease. Part two of 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙀𝙦𝙪𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 uncovers the racist myths that led to today’s lung-function testing with Harvard historian of science Evelynn Hammonds and Brown professor Lundy Braun. Why is the race-corrected interpretation of spirometer test results still used by a majority of U.S. hospitals, when scientists have documented that the practice is harming patients?

A 72-year-old woman presented to the dermatology clinic with a 3.5-month history of an enlarging, painless lump on her left cheek. A punch biopsy showed dermal infiltration by small, round, blue cells arranged in nests, with scant cytoplasm and frequent mitoses. Immunohistochemical testing for perinuclear CK20 and synaptophysin was positive. What is the most likely diagnosis?
