Identifying diagnosed major chronic diseases associated with recent housing instability among aging adults: data from the 'All of Us' research program.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Housing instability is a known barrier to healthcare utilization potentially affecting the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases among diverse groups of adults. We examined the intersection of recent housing instability with prevalent cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and psychiatric diagnoses among aging adults.

Methods

Cross-sectional data on 147 465 participants of the 'All of Us' Research Program (6 May 2018-1 July 2022), ≥50 years of age at enrollment, were analyzed. Self-reported housing instability over the past 6 months was examined in relation to diagnosed conditions at age ≥50 years based on electronic health records. Multivariable logistic regression models sequentially adjusting for demographic and socioeconomic characteristics
