Associations Between Ultra-processed Food Consumption and Cardiometabolic Health Among Older US Adults
Using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2001–2018; N = 19,602), this study examined whether ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption is associated with cardiometabolic health (obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes), among White, Black, Hispanic, and Asian Americans (AA) US adults 50 or older. Diet was assessed using 24 hour dietary recall. NOVA dietary classification system was used to calculate the per…
Statistical Methods to Evaluate Surrogate Markers
BACKGROUND: There is tremendous interest in evaluating surrogate markers given their potential to decrease study time, costs, and patient burden. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this statistical workshop article is to describe and illustrate how to evaluate a surrogate marker of interest using the proportion of treatment effect (PTE) explained as a measure of the quality of the surrogate marker for: (1) a setting with a general fully observed primary …
Prevalence of cardiovascular disease among Asian, Pacific Islander and multi-race populations in Hawai’i and California
Study findings revealed significant differences in overall CVD, CHD, stroke, and PVD among API subgroups. In addition to elevated risk among Filipino, Native Hawaiian, and Other Pacific Islander groups, the study identified particularly elevated risk among multi-race API groups. Differences in disease prevalence are likely mirrored in other cardiometabolic conditions, supporting the need to disaggregate API subgroups in health research
Disparities in Covid-19 testing and outcomes among Asian American and Pacific Islanders
Variation of COVID-19 testing and hospitalization by Asian subgroups was striking in our study. A focus on the Asian Americans and NH/PIs population with disaggregation of subgroups is crucial to understand nuances of health access, utilization, and outcomes among subgroups to create health equity for these underrepresented populations

Years of Potential Life Lost from Cardiovascular Disease Among Hispanics
In conclusion, disaggregation of Hispanic subgroups revealed marked heterogeneity in premature cardiovascular mortality. These findings suggest that measures to improve the cardiovascular health of Hispanics should incorporate subgroup status as a key part of public health strategy
Comparison of Ideal Cardiovascular Health Attainment and Acculturation among Asian Americans and Latinos
We found significant variation in ideal cardiovascular health attainment by language spoken at home in two of the largest immigrant groups in the United States. Findings suggest the need for language and culturally tailored public health and clinical initiatives to reduce cardiovascular risk in diverse populations

Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2017 Update
Cardiovascular Health in African Americans
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Population-wide reductions in cardiovascular disease incidence and mortality have not been shared equally by African Americans. The burden of cardiovascular disease in the African American community remains high and is a primary cause of disparities in life expectancy between African Americans and whites. The objectives of the present scientific statement are to describe cardiovascular health in African Americans and to hi…

Clocks Moving at Different Speeds
OBJECTIVE: To explore racial/ethnic differences in satisfaction with wait time of scheduled office visits by comparing electronic health record (EHR)-based, patient-reported, and patient satisfaction with wait time STUDY SETTING: : A large multispecialty ambulatory care organization in Northern California. Patient experience surveys were collected between 2010 and 2014. Surveys were mailed after randomly selected nonurgent visits. Returned survey…

Using Name Lists to Infer Asian Racial/Ethnic Subgroups in the Healthcare Setting
BACKGROUND: Many clinical data sources used to assess health disparities lack Asian subgroup information, but do include patient names. OBJECTIVE: This project validates Asian surname and given name lists for identifying Asian subgroups (Asian Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese) in clinical records. SUBJECTS: We used 205,000 electronic medical records from the Palo Alto Medical Foundation, a multipayer, outpatient healthcare …
Depression and the Metabolic Syndrome in Young Adults
OBJECTIVE: Previous reports have suggested that depression may lead to the development of cardiovascular disease through its association with the metabolic syndrome; however, little is known about the relationship between depression and the metabolic syndrome. The aim of this study was to establish an association between depression and the metabolic syndrome in a nationally representative sample. METHODS: The Third National Health and Nutrition E…
The Metabolic Syndrome
BACKGROUND: The metabolic syndrome is an important cluster of coronary heart disease risk factors with common insulin resistance. The extent to which the metabolic syndrome is associated with demographic and potentially modifiable lifestyle factors in the US population is unknown. METHODS: Metabolic syndrome-associated factors and prevalence, as defined by Adult Treatment Panel III criteria, were evaluated in a representative US sample of 3305 bl…
