OP56 Modelling Future Coronary Heart Disease Mortality to 2030 in the British Isles
Background Despite rapidly declining coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rates over the last two decades, CHD mortality rates in the British Isles are still amongst the highest in Europe. Greater risk factor reductions have been achieved in many other countries in Europe and beyond. This study aimed to use a modelling approach to assess the potential impact of alternative future risk factor scenarios relating to smoking and physical activity l…
OP53 Explaining Scottish Coronary Heart Disease Mortality Trends between 2000 and 2010
Background Coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rates have halved in recent decades. However, CHD remains the largest cause of death in Scotland generating persistent socioeconomic inequalities. A socioeconomic quantification of the prevention and treatment contributions to these mortality reductions might help inform future health policies. Methods IMPACTsec, a previously validated policy model, was used to apportion the Scottish CHD mortality…
Socio-economic patterning of the trends in cardiovascular disease risk factors in Scotland
Background In Scotland, as in other countries, cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality has substantially declined over time. However, this decline may be slowing among younger groups and there are still large inequalities in mortality between socio-economic groups. Objectives To examine secular changes in the prevalence of known CVD risk factors in the Scottish population according to socio-economic position. Design Representative data on health a…
Associations between marital status and survival after a first acute myocardial infarction in Scotland, 1988–2004
Background There is evidence that marriage has a beneficial effect on health; unmarried experience higher mortality and incidence of mental and physical disorders. In particular, being unmarried is associated with elevated coronary heart disease mortality. Objectives Investigate the association between marital status and survival after a first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and any trends and relationships with age, sex and deprivation. Design…
