RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: In France, almost nine of 10 deaths are caused by non-communicable diseases, and there is significant social inequality in mortality rates. However, it is not easy to collect robust data on the incidence and prevalence of such diseases according to socio-economic status. Based on data from the link between the primary longitudinal population sample and the national health data system, the aim of our study was to compute the standardised incidence and prevalence of seven major groups of chronic diseases according to socio-economic status. STUDY DESIGN: Descriptive retrospective cohort study. METHODS: This was a descriptive retrospective cohort study on a weighted representative sample of the French population, comprising 3.4 million individuals from data collected 2016-2017. Main chronic disease categories include diabetes, cancers, psychiatric disorders, liver and pancreatic diseases, neurological conditions, respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, calculated from the 2016-2017 period by combining health care consumption and diagnoses received during hospitalisations and/or associated with specific full healthcare coverage. Socio-economic status was measured by disposable income from the 2013-2014 tax returns and census-derived socioprofessional groups, and findings were standardised for age and sex. RESULTS: For all disease categories except cancers, standardised incidence rates showed a gradient favouring the wealthiest, with a risk ratio between the first and tenth standard of living deciles ranging from 1.4 (cardiovascular diseases) to 2.8 (diabetes). Incidence of all disease categories, except cancers, was higher for all groups compared with executives and higher academic professions (risk ratios between workers and executives ranged from 2.0 to 1.3 in psychiatric and cardiovascular diseases, respectively). Conversely, cancer incidence rate followed a flat curve, reduced in the two poorest standard of living deciles, and there were no significant differences between socioprofessional groups. Standardised prevalence rates followed the same patterns, although risk ratios were highest for psychiatric diseases, varying according to sex and disease. CONCLUSIONS: Deep social inequalities in incidence and prevalence of chronic diseases were observed in a large representative sample of the French population. The reverse social inequalities in cancer incidence and prevalence calls for more detailed research into cancer types and selection mechanisms, the data from which would allow the long-term monitoring of such disparities.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: There are regional disparities in access to stroke units in France. Several studies have shown that living in disadvantaged areas is associated with a higher frequency of stroke, worse severity at presentation, increased level of dependency and higher mortality rates. However, few studies have explored the association between an individual's socioeconomic characteristics and stroke care. Our study aimed to determine if living standards are associated with stroke unit access for patients admitted to hospital for acute ischaemic stroke. METHODS: Using the EDP-Santé French administrative database, all patients admitted to hospital for acute ischaemic stroke between 2014 and 2017 were selected. Acute ischaemic stroke corresponded to hospital stay with International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision codes I63 or I64 as the main diagnosis. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify if standard of living was associated with likelihood of admission to a stroke unit. RESULTS: In all, 14,123 acute care episodes were identified, corresponding to 335,273 episodes in the general population when appropriately weighted. Of these, 52.9% were admitted to a stroke unit. Being in the first (i.e., poorest) living standard quartile was associated with lower likelihood of admission to a stroke unit compared with the fourth (i.e., wealthiest) quartile, and was associated with a higher likelihood of paralysis and language disorder, and death at 1 year. CONCLUSION: A low living standard was associated with lower likelihood of admission to a stroke unit as well as a greater chance of paralysis and aphasia at the end of hospitalization and a higher possibility of death at 1 year after stroke. Greater access to stroke units for disadvantaged people should be promoted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: We aimed to study whether social patterns of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 infection changed in France throughout the year 2020, in light to the easing of social contact restrictions. METHODS: A population-based cohort of individuals aged 15 years or over was randomly selected from the national tax register to collect socio-economic data, migration history, and living conditions in May and November 2020. Home self-sampling on dried blood was proposed to a 10% random subsample in May and to all in November. A positive anti-SARS-CoV-2 ELISA IgG result against the virus spike protein (ELISA-S) was the primary outcome. The design, including sampling and post-stratification weights, was taken into account in univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: Of the 134,391 participants in May, 107,759 completed the second questionnaire in November, and respectively 12,114 and 63,524 were tested. The national ELISA-S seroprevalence was 4.5% [95%CI: 4.0%-5.1%] in May and 6.2% [5.9%-6.6%] in November. It increased markedly in 18-24-year-old population from 4.8% to 10.0%, and among second-generation immigrants from outside Europe from 5.9% to 14.4%. This group remained strongly associated with seropositivity in November, after controlling for any contextual or individual variables, with an adjusted OR of 2.1 [1.7-2.7], compared to the majority population. In both periods, seroprevalence remained higher in healthcare professions than in other occupations. CONCLUSION: The risk of Covid-19 infection increased among young people and second-generation migrants between the first and second epidemic waves, in a context of less strict social restrictions, which seems to have reinforced territorialized socialization among peers.
