Life course socioeconomic trajectories and chronic disease risk in later life among 30,055 older adults across 27 European countries (the SHARE study)
Our study revealed five distinct life course SEP trajectories in a sample of European individuals aged 50 years or older. Two trajectories were associated with chronic disease risk later in life, with more advantageous trajectories associated with reduced chronic disease risk.
