Inequality in health outcomes in relation to Americans’ socioeconomic position is rising. First, to evaluate the spatial relationship between neighborhood disadvantage and major atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)-related events; and second, to evaluate the relative extent to which neighborhood disadvantage and physiological risk account for neighborhood-level variation in ASCVD event rates. Observational cohort analysis of geocoded longitudinal electronic health records. A single academic health center and surrounding neighborhoods in Northeast Ohio. 109,793 Cleveland Clinic Health System (CCHS) patients who had had an outpatient lipid panel drawn between 2007 and 2010. The date of the first qualifying lipid panel served as study baseline. Time from baseline to the first occurrence of a major ASCVD event (myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death) within 5 years, modeled as a function of 1) a locally-derived neighborhood disadvantage index (NDI) and 2) the predicted 5-year ASCVD event rate from the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Pooled Cohort Equations Risk Model (PCERM). Outcome data were censored if there were no CCHS encounters for two consecutive years or when state death data were no longer available (i.e., 2015 onward). The PCERM systematically under-predicted ASCVD event risk among patients from disadvantaged communities. Model discrimination was poorer among these patients (concordance index [95% confidence interval]: 0.70 [0.67 – 0.74]) than among patients from the most affluent communities (0.80 [0.78 – 0.81]). The NDI alone accounted for 32.0% of census-tract-level variation in ASCVD event rates, compared to 10.0% accounted for by the PCERM. Patients from affluent communities were over-represented. Outcomes of patients treated for cardiovascular disease diagnoses at Cleveland Clinic were assumed to be independent of whether patients came from a disadvantaged or affluent neighborhood. Neighborhood disadvantage may be a powerful regulator of ASCVD event risk. In addition to supplemental risk models and clinical screening criteria, population-based solutions to ameliorating the deleterious effects of neighborhood disadvantage on health outcomes are needed.
