Table 2:
Adjusted association between Zip-code-level redlining proportion with the risk of heart failure in White and Black beneficiaries.
Beneficiaries of Black Race | Beneficiaries of White Race | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
RR (95% CI) | P Value | RR (95% CI) | P-Value | |
Model 1 | 1.09 (1.05–1.13) | <0.001 | 0.94 (0.88–0.99) | 0.02 |
Model 2 | 1.08 (1.04–1.12) | <0.001 | 0.94 (0.89–0.99) | 0.02 |
Model 3 | 1.04 (1.002–1.08) | 0.04 | 0.90 (0.85–0.95) | <0.001 |
Zip-code-level redlining proportion assessed categorically as Quartile 4 (highest proportion of redlined area) compared to Quartiles 1–3 (reference, lowest proportion of redlined area).
Model 1 includes age + sex. Model 2 includes model 1 + comorbidities. Model 3 includes age, sex, comorbidities + Social Deprivation Index.
Models are generalized linear models, with patients’ variables as fixed effects, Zip-code as random intercept, with Poisson distribution and log time patient was alive as offset term.
Abbreviations: RR = risk ratio. CI = confidence interval.
