Social determinants of health and epigenetic clocks: Meta-analysis of 140 studies

2025-05-08

Abstract excerpt

Social determinants of health are social factors that affect health and survival. Two of the most powerful social determinants are socioeconomic status (SES) and race/ethnicity; people with lower SES or marginalized race/ethnicity tend to experience earlier onset of aging-related diseases and have shorter lifespans. DNA methylation (DNAm) measures of biological aging, often referred to as “epigenetic clocks”, are...
