Abstract
Introduction: The relationship between social determinants of health (SDOH) and health-related social needs (HRSN) and some chronic diseases at the population level is not well known. We sought to determine relationships between SDOH/HRSN and major chronic diseases among US adults by using data from the 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS).
Methods: We used data from the new Social Determinants and Health Equity (SD/HE) module, conducted in 39 states, the District of Columbia, and 2 territories as part of the 2022 BRFSS. These data yielded a sample of 324,631 adult participants (aged ≥18 y). We examined 12 indicators of SDOH/HRSN and 9 chronic diseases. We calculated weighted prevalence estimates for each SDOH/HRSN measure for each chronic disease and associations between each SDOH/HRSN and each chronic disease.
Results: Two-thirds of participants (66.3%) had 1 or more chronic diseases, and 59.4% reported 1 or more adverse SDOH/HRSN. Prevalence estimates for individual SDOH/HRSN measures were generally higher among participants with chronic diseases (except cancer). The more chronic diseases reported, the more likely participants were to have SDOH/HRSN (P < .05 for linear trend). The leading SDOH/HRSN measures associated with each chronic disease varied; however, the most common were mental stress, receiving food stamps or participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, cost as a barrier for needed medical care, and life dissatisfaction.
Conclusion: From a treatment and prevention perspective, health care providers should consider the influence of SDOH/HRSN on people with or at risk for chronic diseases. Additionally, human service and public health systems in communities with high rates of chronic disease should consider these findings as they plan to mitigate adverse SDOH.
期刊介绍:
Preventing Chronic Disease (PCD) is a peer-reviewed electronic journal established by the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. The mission of PCD is to promote the open exchange of information and knowledge among researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and others who strive to improve the health of the public through chronic disease prevention. The vision of PCD is to be the premier forum where practitioners and policy makers inform research and researchers help practitioners and policy makers more effectively improve the health of the population. Articles focus on preventing and controlling chronic diseases and conditions, promoting health, and examining the biological, behavioral, physical, and social determinants of health and their impact on quality of life, morbidity, and mortality across the life span.
