Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how social determinants of health (SDOH) influence overweight and obesity rates among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) children aged 2-11 who used Indian Health Service between 2010 and 2014.
- - About 49% of the children were classified as overweight or obese, with severe obesity at 20% for ages 6-11, revealing a notable impact of poverty on these health outcomes.
- - Findings suggest that higher poverty levels correlate with increased chances of being overweight/obese, indicating the need for targeted efforts in research and policy to tackle economic instability among young AI/AN populations.
