For clinicians, researchers, and public health officials, Ferdinand (cardiology, Emory U.) and Armani (internal medicine, New Hanover Regional Medical Center) bring together 15 chapters that examine racial and ethnic healthcare disparities relating to cardiovascular disease in the US in terms of risk factor prevalence, disease states, and outcomes. Contributors in the US working in internal medicine, cardiology, anthropology, epidemiology, and other fields discuss the effects of genetics and the environment on cardiovascular diseases; differences in morbidity, mortality, and pathophysiology; best practices to control risk factors and eliminate death and disability; epidemiology, nutritional, socioeconomic, culture, and health-related factors; hypertension; dyslipidemia; weight loss interventions to control blood pressure; obesity and the cardiometabolic syndrome and its impact on chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease; imaging techniques; heart failure; and minority women.
