Survey-weighted characteristic variables of the study participants stratified by cardiovascular disease, U.S. NHANES 2005–2018 (n = 35,781).
Fig 2.
Spearman correlations between eight Social Determinants of Health variables, U.S. NHANES 2005–2018.
Correlation strength was interpreted using absolute Spearman’s rho (|ρ|): < 0.10 negligible, 0.10–0.29 weak, 0.30–0.49 moderate, 0.50–0.69 strong, and ≥0.70 very strong. Positive values indicate direct correlations and negative values indicate inverse correlations.
