Implication

Retrospective cohort study finds that low socioeconomic status neighborhoods increase mortality risk in children with ALL, suggesting long-term support needs.

Key Points

Children from the lowest socioeconomic status neighborhoods had a 55% increased hazard of mortality compared to the highest neighborhoods.
Surviving two years post-diagnosis, those from low SES neighborhoods had a hazard ratio of 1.70 for mortality; this increased to 1.87 after five years.
This study modeled survival rates using Cox proportional hazard models for 17,044 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The findings indicate that children from low SES areas face significant long-term health risks, highlighting a need for sustained support.
