Prenatal and Pediatric Primary Care-Based Child Obesity Prevention: Effects of Adverse Social Determinants of Health on Intervention Attendance and Impact
Conclusions: Effects of adverse SDoHs on intervention outcomes depend on the specific adverse SDoH. Highest engagement and benefit occurred in those with high psychosocial stress at baseline, suggesting that StEP components may mitigate aspects of psychosocial stressors. Findings also support integration of adverse SDoH assessment into strategies to enhance obesity prevention impacts on families with material hardships.
