Comorbidities Associated With Social Determinants of Health in Latinx Patients Receiving Mental Health Care at a Community Clinic in South Florida

摘要

Mental and physical health conditions are intrinsically linked. Depression and anxiety may co-exist with an array of chronic diseases and conditions. Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) may have a powerful impact on health and may contribute to chronic disease disparities in underrepresented and underserved communities. The objective of this study was to examine the comorbidities found in patients seeking mental health care and their relationships to SDOH.
