Impact of Social Vulnerability Index on Multiple Myeloma Mortality
African Americans had higher AAMRs from MM compared to other racial groups. However, SVI scores were not significantly associated with MM mortality disparities. These findings suggest that SVI alone is insufficient to determine mortality disparities in MM. Future research should explore more specific indicators to identify at-risk populations and address mortality inequities in MM.
