Gender‐Specific Associations Between Social Determinants of Health Clusters and Dementia Risk in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults
Socioeconomic disadvantage was associated with an increased risk of incident dementia. Despite stronger social support, women appeared to be disproportionately affected by adverse SDH in relation to dementia risk. Addressing multidimensional deprivation at the individual, community, and national levels throughout the life course should be central to both new and existing interventions and policies aimed at promoting health equity.
