TL;DR: This study tested the salmon bias hypothesis that Latinos engage in return migration to their country of origin and are thereby rendered "statistically immortal" and the alternative hypothesis that selection of healthier migrants to the United States accounts for the paradox.

TL;DR: Results suggest that the health behaviors and acculturation hypotheses may help to at least partially explain the Latino mortality paradox, and indicate that the observed differences between Latinos and non-Latino whites, as well as the effects of accULTuration on health behaviors, varied across men and women.

TL;DR: A public health perspective that incorporates the roles of structural and cultural forces in Acculturation may help identify mechanisms underlying links between acculturation and health among Latinos.

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic review and meta-analysis on collaborative care for improving the management of depressive disorders is presented, and the results from the meta-analyses suggest robust evidence of effectiveness of collaborative care in improving depression symptoms (standardized mean difference [SMD] 0.34, adherence to treatment (OR2.22), response to treatment, remission of symptoms (OR1.78), recovery from symptoms, and satisfaction with care.

TL;DR: An analysis of novel topics emerging in recent years in research on Latino immigrants, acculturation, and health points to the emergence of a new wave of research that holds great promise in driving forward the study of Latino immigrants and health.
