Social determinants of intrinsic capacity: A systematic review of observational studies

The World Health Organization defined healthy ageing as the maintenance of functional ability with ageing. Intrinsic capacity is a measurement of healthy ageing, and can be shaped by social determinants. However, an overall understanding of how multiple social determinants contribute to intrinsic capacity remains unclear. We aim to summarize observational studies investigating the relationships between social determinants and intrinsic capacity among community-dwelling adults.
