Key result
Adverse social determinants and low social support are linked to higher mortality in chronic heart failure.
Why the study?
It was unclear whether a causal relationship exists between social determinants of health and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure.
Population
1377 patients with CHF
Comparison
Impact of SDoH, social support, and support utilization
Design
Multicentre prospective cohort study

Long-term SDoH effects may worsen CHF mortality risk; leaves open whether targeting dynamic SDoH improves outcomes in prospective trials.
Cohort (n=1,377)
Yes
Song et al. (2025) conducted a cohort in chronic heart failure (n=1,377). Social determinants of health (SDoH) was evaluated on mortality. Unfavorable social determinants of health, low social support, and low support utilization during follow-up increased the risk of mortality in patients with chronic heart failure.
