Relationships between acculturative stressors and physiological stress response among Latinx immigrants in the southeastern United States
The results highlight significant associations among acculturative stressors, inflammatory cytokines, and BMI. Further exploration of these relationships can identify key social determinants and mechanisms underlying health inequities, such as those related to obesity and cardiometabolic health. These findings may contribute to the design of more effective health promotion and disease prevention interventions for Latinx immigrant populations.
