摘要

在美国，心血管疾病仍然是导致死亡的主要原因。几项研究表明，心血管疾病的结果存在种族差异。与非西班牙裔白人(NHW)相比，非西班牙裔黑人(NHB)具有更高的心血管危险因素患病率，因此，动脉粥样硬化性心血管疾病的死亡率增加。NHB人群在美国心脏协会的生命基本8指数中得分较低，证明了这一点。与NHW个体相比，NHB个体在血压、血脂、尼古丁暴露、睡眠、身体活动水平、血糖控制、体重和饮食方面得分较低。在初级保健水平改善这些指标的措施可能是减轻NHB个体心血管健康方面的卫生保健差异的关键。

Life's essential eight as targets for cardiometabolic risk reduction among non-Hispanic black adults: A primary care approach

Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death in the United States. Several studies have shown racial disparities in the cardiovascular outcomes. When compared to their Non-Hispanic White (NHW) counterparts, non-Hispanic Black (NHB) individuals have higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and thus, increased mortality from atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. This is evidenced by lower scoring in the indices of the American Heart Association's Life Essential 8 among NHB individuals. NHB individuals score lower in blood pressure, blood lipids, nicotine exposure, sleep, physical activity level, glycemic control, weight, and diet when compared to NHW individuals. Measures to improve these indices at the primary care level may potentially hold the key in mitigating the health care disparities in cardiovascular health experienced by NHB individuals.

期刊介绍： Journal of the National Medical Association, the official journal of the National Medical Association, is a peer-reviewed publication whose purpose is to address medical care disparities of persons of African descent. The Journal of the National Medical Association is focused on specialized clinical research activities related to the health problems of African Americans and other minority groups. Special emphasis is placed on the application of medical science to improve the healthcare of underserved populations both in the United States and abroad. The Journal has the following objectives: (1) to expand the base of original peer-reviewed literature and the quality of that research on the topic of minority health; (2) to provide greater dissemination of this research; (3) to offer appropriate and timely recognition of the significant contributions of physicians who serve these populations; and (4) to promote engagement by member and non-member physicians in the overall goals and objectives of the National Medical Association.
