description: | Low socioeconomic status has for long been considered an important modifiable risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease, plausibly by lower access to healthcare, lower therapeutic adhesion, and overlapping of other known risk factors. Nevertheless, whether family income and social isolation of poor communities seen in Brazil impact outcomes following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remain scarcely understood. STEMI diagnosed patients were consecutively enrolled from the Brazilian Heart Study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02062554) and categorized according to median family income (US$350), address-based human development index (HDI), and distance between communities and a tertiary hospital (DCTH). Incidence of death after 48 months was compared by using adjusted Cox regressions. p-alues |
