To compare the prevalence of
a. CVD risk factors (e.g. smoking, diabetes, etc.)
b. Heart disease
c. Stroke
in the 4 largest ethnic groups in Ontario:White, Chinese, South Asian, and Black
Study objective
Chiu et al., CMAJ 2010
Methods
National Population Health Survey (NPHS) and Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS)
Data source
Population-based cross-sectional surveys conducted by Statistics Canada
Provide timely, reliable estimates of health determinants, health status and health system utilization
Include: Aged 12+ in private dwellings
Exclude: People on Indian Reserves, Canadian Forces Bases
Chiu et al., CMAJ 2010
Q: People living in Canada come from many different cultural and racial backgrounds. Are you:
White
Chinese
South Asian (e.g. East Indian, Pakistani, Punjabi, Sri-Lankan)
Black
