Addressing Social Determinants of Health in a Free Clinic Setting: A Student-Run Free Clinic and Community Resource Navigator Program.

Background: Social determinants of health (SDOH) disproportionately affect medically-underserved populations such as those cared for in student-run free clinics (SRFCs). Community resource programs which address SDOH play an important role in reducing health disparities. The Southside MEDiC Clinic (SMC), a SRFC at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, partnered with the Community Resource Navigator Program (CRNP), a community resource program focused on addressing SDOH, to remove barriers that prevent positive health outcomes for SMC patients.

variant results in nanophthalmos, retinitis pigmentosa, variability in foveal avascular zone.

Background: Membrane frizzled-related protein (MFRP) plays a critical role in ocular development. mutations are known to cause nanophthalmos and, in some cases, retinitis pigmentosa, foveoschisis, and/or optic nerve head (ONH) drusen. The broad clinical spectrum of mutations necessitates further investigation of specific genotype-phenotype relationships.
