The impact of the combination of income and education on the incidence of coronary heart disease in the prospective Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) cohort study.
The authors investigated the association between income-education groups and incident coronary heart disease (CHD) in a national prospective cohort study. They found that, for younger individuals, low income, regardless of education, was associated with higher risk of CHD; however, this was not observed for those 65 years of age or older.
