PP60 Probable Airflow Obstruction in Adults
Background In the UK, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) causes approximately 25,000 deaths annually. Around three million people are estimated to have COPD, of whom fewer than one-third have been diagnosed. Using spirometry, fixed thresholds (FT) and lower limit of normal (LLN) criteria define airflow obstruction (AO) differently. FTs use cut-offs for lung function measurements regardless of age, sex, height and ethnicity; LLN criteria…
OP54 Exploring Socioeconomic Inequalities in Coronary Heart Disease Prevention
Background Between 2000 and 2007, coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rates in England plummeted by one third. An important part of this substantial CHD mortality decline was achieved through reductions in major cardiovascular risk factors (primary prevention). However, the relative contributions from medications and from population-wide changes remains unclear, particularly the effects on health inequalities. Methods Using a previously valida…
Explaining recent coronary heart disease mortality trends in England by socioeconomic circumstances, 2000–2007
Background The continuing fall in coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality is widely celebrated. However, the impact of public policies and treatments on socio-economic gradients in health is poorly quantified. Understanding the separate contributions of prevention and treatment to recent trends is thus crucial to planning the most effective and equitable future strategies. Methods Using a previously validated epidemiological model, we estimated th…
O1-4.1 Explaining recent coronary heart disease mortality trends in England by socioeconomic circumstances, 2000–2007
Introduction The continuing fall in coronary heart disease mortality rates is widely celebrated. However, the impact of public policies and treatments is poorly quantified and hardly ever by socioeconomic group. Methods Using a previously validated epidemiological model we estimated the contribution of risk factor changes and evidence-based treatments to reduce CHD mortality in adults aged over 25 years between 2000 and 2007 in England, both over…
