An analysis of the influence of social determinants of health on treatment and survival among adult patients with high-grade glioma in Utah
HGG patients from Frontier and Rural counties in Utah encountered greater SDOH barriers without experiencing delays in resection. Rural patients had shorter survival than Urban patients. Further investigation is needed to determine whether additional SDOHs (income and insurance status) may intersect and contribute to shorter survival and less access to adjuvant therapy.
