Key result
Lower socioeconomic status was associated with higher two-year coronary heart disease mortality and one-year myocardial infarction incidence among 61,350 patients with angina pectoris.
Why the study?
Does lower socioeconomic status increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with angina pectoris?
Cohort (n=61,350)
Does lower socioeconomic status increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with angina pectoris?
Socioeconomic disparities in CHD mortality and MI incidence exist among patients with angina pectoris, similar to those seen in MI patients, highlighting the need for targeted secondary prevention in lower socioeconomic groups.

SES disparities in angina outcomes merit attention; extends MI findings but leaves causal mechanisms and interventions open.
Kristiina Manderbacka (2006) conducted a cohort in Angina pectoris or myocardial infarction (n=61,350). Lower socioeconomic status vs. Higher socioeconomic status was evaluated on Two-year coronary heart disease mortality, one-year MI incidence, and 28-day case fatality. Lower socioeconomic status was associated with higher two-year coronary heart disease mortality and one-year myocardial infarction incidence among 61,350 patients with angina pectoris.
