Abstract
Social determinants of health (SDOH) are conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. Variations in these conditions are largely responsible for health inequities, the differences in health status or distribution of health resources within a population. Despite recent increases in attention to SDOH in research and clinical practice, few, if any, resources exist to describe how these complex dynamics impact patients with inborn errors of metabolism. Recognizing the role real-life narratives have as a powerful educational tool, we compiled a series of 3 original cases, published as part of this special supplement, to illustrate challenges and learnings related to SDOH within the context of urea cycle disorders and phenylketonuria.
期刊介绍：
Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports is an open access journal that publishes molecular and metabolic reports describing investigations that use the tools of biochemistry and molecular biology for studies of normal and diseased states. In addition to original research articles, sequence reports, brief communication reports and letters to the editor are considered.
