Abstract:

This study aimed to analyze the differences in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) between 2000 and 2010 and its association with socioeconomic and risk factors among the elderly. Bayesian multilevel models were applied to analyze the differences in the prevalence of CVD, and the associations between individual characteristics and presence of CVD were analyzed by logistic regression models with complex samples, separately for 2000, 2006 and 2010. This research is part of the Health, Welfare and Aging (SABE) study, performed in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and used the samples collected in 2000, 2006 and 2010. An increase in cardiovascular disease prevalence among elderly was observed during the period, from 17.9% in 2000, to 22.2% in 2006, reaching 22.9% in 2010. In reference to the prevalence observed in 2000, the multilevel analysis indicated a significant increase in presence of cardiovascular diseases in 2006 (OR = 3.20 95%CI = 1.93-5.31) and 2010 (OR = 2.98 95%CI = 1.51-5.89), even after controlling for individual factors. The presence of CVD was associated with older age, smoking history, presence of diabetes and hypertension, and an inverse association was observed between CVD presence and alcohol intake.
