Objective: To examine whether socioeconomic status is associated with prognosis after the diagnosis of hypertension (HTN), in a population older than 65 years, in the community setting.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Setting: All the primary care centres of the Community of Madrid (n=392).
Participants: All patients (>65 years) with a new diagnosis of HTN in 2007-08, without previous kidney or cardiovascular (K/CV) events (n=21 754).Patient records from primary care electronic health records and Spanish mortality database were analysed from January 2007 through December 2018. Sociodemographic data such as age, gender, Area Deprivation Index (MEDEA-Mortalidad en áreas pequeñas Españolas y Desigualdades Socioeconómicas y Ambientales-Index in quintiles), and characteristics, such as smoking, type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolaemia, were collected at the time of enrolment.
Primary And Secondary Outcome Measures: The occurrence of K/CV events (including mortality from these causes) and total mortality were evaluated using Cox regression.
Results: Patients had a mean age of 73.5 (SD 6.5) years, and 63.5% were women. The median follow-up was 128.7 months (IQR: 110.6-136.7 months). There were 10 648 first K/CV events, including 1508 deaths from these causes and 4273 deaths from other causes. Adjusted for age, gender, smoking, diabetes and hypercholesterolaemia, when comparing the third, fourth and last quintiles (less affluent) of the Deprivation Index with respect to the first quintile, the hazard of K/CV events increased by 14.8% (95% CI: 3.3 to 27.6%), 16.0% (95% CI: 6.4 to 26.4%) and 19.1% (95% CI: 8.9 to 30.2%), respectively. The MEDEA Index was not associated with differences in adjusted total mortality.
Conclusion: Living in a low socioeconomic status area is associated with an increase in kidney or cardiovascular events in hypertensive patients diagnosed after age 65 years, which will result in a significant increase in disease burden even if not related to an increase in total mortality.
