Individual Socioeconomic Factors Conditioning Cardiovascular Disease Risk
American Journal of Hypertension, 09/25/09
Barceló MA et al. – The CVD risk estimation tables for the general population (SCORE) reflect the socioeconomic factor better than the CVD risk stratification tables for HT (ESH tables). Target organ damage (TOD) is an important factor for stratifying risk in the ESH tables; however, the SCORE tables do not take this into account. Therefore, socioeconomic factors may already be incorporated in the ESH tables through an intermediate variable, such as TOD.
