Abstract

We sought to analyze the existence of skin of color (SOC)-related literature in Pediatric Dermatology. To do so, we applied criteria developed by Wilson et al (Assessment of skin of color and diversity and inclusion content of dermatologic published literature: an analysis and call to action. Int J Women Dermatol. 2021;15:26) to categorize SOC articles. We found that Pediatric Dermatology published 28.4% SOC articles in the last three years, higher than the average (16.8%) found across surveyed dermatology journals. Our findings demonstrate opportunity for improvement through the implementation of keyword standardization and continued prioritization of SOC-related content.
