Press Release: Review of Screening and Assessment Tools for Social Determinants of Health in the Field of Cardiovascular Disease

We have published a comprehensive review article on screening and assessment tools for Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) in the field of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
This is a collaborative effort with researchers from the Department of Cardiology at St. Luke’s International Hospital and the Department of Academic Informatics at St. Luke’s International University.

The article elucidates the deployment of previously reported SDOH assessment tools in relation to CVD and the correlation between individual SDOH factors and CVD outcomes.
Our research findings were released on December 11, 2023, in the Circulation Journal, an international journal issued by the Japanese Circulation Society.
