Psychosocial risk measure

(Potential effect measure modifier)

  1. Note: Each modified Poisson regression model accounted for clustering within neighborhood (i.e., census tract at Exam 1) [47]
  2. * Adjusted for visit, age, sex/gender, race, nativity, geographic region, marital status, self-rated health, insurance, family CVD history, social support, education, income, employment, anger, depressive symptoms, chronic stress, discrimination, neighborhood deprivation, and neighborhood safety
  3. ** CVH assessed during exams at or after neighborhood social cohesion assessment at Exam 1 among MASALA and MESA participants included in the primary analysis (n = 6,086)
  4. Global chi-squared test provided p-values to indicate whether at least one of the coefficients of the product terms between neighborhood social cohesion and psychosocial risk were different from zero
