Description
Study Aims
To examine the following:
(1) Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence among Asians, Pacific Islander, and mixed-race Asian-Pacific Islander subpopulations.
(2) Demographic, clinical, and psychosocial factors to explain observed differences in CVD prevalence.
(3) Prevalence of secondary CVD outcomes and quality of life; demographic, clinical, and psychosocial factors explaining observed differences.
