Multiple methods of quantifying social determinants of health exist, such as the social vulnerability index (SVI). We assess the impact of the SVI on atrial fibrillation (AF)-related cardiovascular disease mortality.
CDC databases were used to obtain mortality and SVI information. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR) were compared among all US counties, aggregated by SVI quartiles.
AAMR was not increased in counties within the highest SVI quartile, consistent across gender and geographic subgroups.
Increased SVI is a poor marker to predict mortality outcomes associated with AF.
存在多种量化健康社会决定因素的方法,如社会脆弱性指数(SVI)。我们评估SVI对心房颤动(AF)相关心血管疾病死亡率的影响。
使用疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)数据库获取死亡率和SVI信息。按SVI四分位数汇总,比较美国所有县的年龄调整死亡率(AAMR)。
SVI四分位数最高的县的AAMR并未增加,在性别和地理亚组中均一致。
SVI升高并不是预测与AF相关死亡率结果的良好指标。
