The Effects of Social Determinants of Health on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Lebanese with Type 2 Diabetes by Saadé, Rita

“…ACE, diabetes family history, age were found to be significantly and indirectly linked to the primary outcome (waist circumference) through A1C as a mediator, unlike health literacy that was significantly and directly linked to the primary outcome (χ2= 8.30 with p= 0.1405, CFI = .94 and RMSEA = .049 with PCLOSE of .44) Discussion: Patients that were health literate, working fewer hours with positive diabetes family history, and higher BMI and A1C levels were shown to have higher waist circumference and higher risk for cardiovascular risk factors. …”
