However, sparse data exist regarding relative CHD risks across CIDs. Determine relative differences in CHD risk across multiple CIDs: psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), systemic sclerosis (SSc), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Background: Individuals with CIDs are at elevated risk for cardiovascular diseases, but data are limited regarding risk for HF.
Methods: An electronic health records database from a large urban medical system was examined, comparing individuals with CIDs with frequency-matched controls without CIDs, all of whom were receiving regular outpatient care.
