abstract: 'Background: For women, who are more likely to live in poverty, defining

  the clinical and economic impact of socioeconomic factors may aid in

  defining redistributive policies to improve healthcare quality.

  Methods. The NIH-NHLBI-sponsored Women''s Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation

  (WISE) enrolled 819 women referred for clinically indicated coronary

  angiography. This study''s primary end point was to evaluate the

  independent contribution of socioeconomic factors on the estimation of

  time to cardiovascular death or myocardial infarction (MI) (n = 79)

  using Cox proportional hazards models. Secondary aims included an

  examination of cardiovascular costs and quality of life within

  socioeconomic subsets of women.

  Results: In univariable models, socioeconomic factors associated with an

  elevated risk of cardiovascular death or MI included an annual household

  income <\$20,000 (p = 0.0001), <9th grade education (p = 0.002), being

  African American, Hispanic, Asian, or American Indian (p = 0.016), on

  Medicaid, Medicare, or other public health insurance (p < 0.0001),

  unmarried (p = 0.001.), unemployed or employed part-time (p < 0.0001),

  and working in a service job (p = 0.003). Of these socioeconomic

  factors, income (p = 0.006) remained a significant predictor of

  cardiovascular death or MI in risk-adjusted models that controlled for

  angiographic coronary disease, chest pain symptoms, and cardiac risk

  factors. Low-income women, with an annual household income <\$20,000,

  were more often uninsured or on public insurance (p < 0.0001) yet had

  the highest 5-year hospitalization and drug treatment costs (p <

  0.0001). Only 17\% of low-income women had prescription drug coverage

  (vs. >= 50\% of higher-income households, p < 0.0001), and 64\% required

  >= 2 anti-ischemic medications during follow-up (compared with 45\% of

  those earning >=\$50,000, p < 0.0001).

  Conclusions: Economic disadvantage prominently affects cardiovascular

  disease outcomes for women with chest pain symptoms. These results

  further support a profound intertwining between poverty and poor health.

  Cardiovascular disease management strategies should focus on policies

  that track unmet healthcare needs and worsening clinical status for

  low-income women.'
