2️⃣ How SDH affect lupus management
Low income, limited health literacy, language barriers or caregiving responsibilities (affects mainly women) can reduce access to medication, appointments, and follow-up, leading to irregular treatment & worse disease control.

1️⃣ SDH 🆚 presentation & diagnosis (example)
Patients from ⬇️income or minority backgrounds often face delays in diagnosis due to limited access to specialists, low health literacy or stigma.
As a result, lupus may be more severe, with organ damage, at diagnosis
