Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Prevalence of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease risk factors in Hispanics/Latinos

    This is a population-based cohort study of 16,400 Hispanic/Latinos. Objectives: * Examination of the cohort following a standardized protocol * Follow-up of the cohort to assess vital status, changes in health status, medication intake, and new cardiovascular and pulmonary events (fatal and non-fatal MI, heart failure, stroke, asthma, and COPD. * Understand the relationship between changes in risk factors and protective factors and onset of CV and pulmonary disease progression * Understand the relationship between changes in sociocultural factors and changes in health * Understand the relationship between baseline CV risk profile of women of childbearing age and incidence of select pregnancy complications
