Neighbourhood socioeconomic disparities in immunohaematologic risk in a paediatric analytic cohort
Utilising a widely available and low-cost blood test, cellular consequences - as indexed by RDW - of early-life social-environmental adversity may be observable during childhood itself. The vulnerability of youth racialised as Black likely reflects socially produced health inequalities, and study findings evidence a cellular dimension of how structural factors may impact health from a young age.
