Adjusted Difference in Cardiovascular Health Scorea for Categories of Reported Racial and/or Gender Discrimination by Gendered Raceb: CARDIA, 1992–2016.
| Black women | Black men | White women | White men | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Discrimination (year 7) | ß (95% CI) | ß (95% CI) | ß (95% CI) | ß (95% CI) |
| None | ref | ref | ref | ref |
| Any racial only | 0.4 (0.0, 0.8) | −0.1 (−0.5, 0.4) | −0.3 (−1.2, 0.6) | 0.4 (0.1, 0.8) |
| Any gender only | −0.3 (−0.8, 0.2) | 0.2 (−0.6, 1.0) | 0.3 (0.0, 0.6) | 0.0 (−0.4, 0.3) |
| Any racial or gender, in <2 settings | 0.1 (−0.3, 0.5) | 0.0 (−0.5, 0.5) | 0.2 (−0.2, 0.6) | −0.2 (−0.6, 0.1) |
| Both racial and gender, in ≥2 settings | 0.2 (−0.1, 0.6) | −0.3 (−0.7, 0.1) | 0.0 (−0.4, 0.4) | −0.6 (-1.1, -0.1) |
Bolded values are statistically significant at p < 0.05.
a
Cardiovascular health scores are calculated based on data collected in year 30 or the last follow-up using six components: body mass index, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, smoking status, and physical activity. Higher scores indicate better health.
b
Models are adjusted for age and geographic location.
