Coronary risk factors and socioeconomic status. The Oslo study
Abstract
Coronary heart-disease (C.H.D.) had been reviewed as a "manager's disease". However, deaths from C.H.D. are now said to be more common in groups from the lower social classes than in those of higher socioeconomic status. We have examined wheather these differences in C.H.D. mortality can be explained by differences in the conventional risk factors for C.H.D.
