Social Determinants of Health
3 reportsSocial Determinants of Health research examines a health question through mechanisms, diagnosis, population evidence, and clinical studies. Reliable conclusions require food security and structural discrimination, while early mechanisms or correlations cannot substitute for validated clinical outcomes.
Income inequality and food security are compared with structural discrimination. This record clarifies what causal evidence exists and why disparities persist, distinguishing laboratory signals from outcomes measured in patients.
