Figure 4. Odds ratios for receipt of surgical treatments by black patients during the 30 days after AMI.

Figure 4

For each treatment the odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals reflect estimates for treatment receipt among blacks compared to whites using models that sequentially add groups of independent variables. The first model adjusts for age, the second model adjusts for age and clinical conditions (condition upon AMI admission and co-morbid conditions) and the third model adjusts for age, clinical conditions, and the specific admitting hospital.
