a Frequency refers to the number of articles identified for each SDH category and each division; a single article may be counted in more than 1 category if it covered more than 1 SDH topic. Frequencies are the result of a 2-stage search process in PubMed, first searching for articles with NCHHSTP affiliations, and then searching among affiliated articles for SDH categories in which these articles appeared. See Box containing search terms for further details.
