Social support moderates D-dimer and self-rated successful aging within people with HIV and older adults. [PDF]
, 2020 Many factors can influence perceptions of successful aging (SA), including social isolation and poor physical health. We hypothesized that social support attenuates the negative effect of plasma D-dimer, a correlate of HIV and aging, on SA.
