Social determinants of health associated with multiple myeloma incidence and survival among a low-income cohort in the Southeastern U.S.

Key Points

• To identify how social determinants of health influence the incidence and survival rates of multiple myeloma in low-income populations.
• Analyzed social determinants of health in relation to multiple myeloma incidence and survival.
• Focused on a cohort from the Southeastern U.S.
• Utilized statistical analysis to evaluate incidence and survival outcomes.
• Higher incidence rates of multiple myeloma were linked to lower socioeconomic status.
• Survival rates were significantly affected by access to healthcare and socioeconomic factors.
