“…Such associations have been documented among women with (22) and without diabetes (29,30), appear to be independent of other risk factors for lower self-rated health such as income and age, and are potentially mediated by other markers of socioeconomic position and social stressors (30 -32).

After adjustment for socioeconomic status, health, lifestyle, and social circumstances, ethnicity remained significant for bodily pain and social functioning.…”
