Effects of communication disorder status on risk for eleven common health conditions in the All of Us Research Program in the USA: a cross-sectional study.

To determine if communication disorders (1) increase the risk for common mental and physical health conditions and (2) if risk varies by age of onset (≤25 years (developmental) or >25 years (acquired)) by using the large-scale All of Us Research Program participant-reported survey data to electronic health records (EHR) data. We hypothesised that adults with a communication disorder would have a higher risk of mental and physical health conditions.
