2 Background Global migration to high-income countries is increasing. Little is known about the incidence of cardiovascular diseases in migrant populations from different ethnic backgrounds and regions of the world. Previous studies have been primarily been conducted in Europe. (Dassanayake J, Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health 211;23:882-95) Among high-income countries, Canada has one of the highest per-capita rates of immigration. Ontario, Canada represents an ideal setting in which to conduct research on cardiovascular diseases in multi-ethnic migrant populations. 2
3 Overall Objective To determine, in a large multi-ethnic cohort of firstgeneration immigrants who immigrated to Ontario between 1985 and 2, the: i. Prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors and, ii. 1-year incidence rates of major cardiovascular events. 3
4 Methods Design Retrospective cohort study of 824,662 immigrants from 21 countries of birth. Identified from Citizenship and Immigration Canada s Permanent Resident database, linked to 9 population-based health databases. Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria All legal immigrants aged 3-74 years as of January 22, who landed in Ontario between 1985 and 2. No known history of a major cardiovascular event prior to January 22. Immigrants classified into 1 of 8 major ethnic groups, based upon their country of birth, mother tongue and surname. (Rezai M, Open Med 213; 7:85-93; Shah B, BMC Medical Research Methodology 21;1:42) White-Western European (including US, Australia, New Zealand), White-Eastern European, East Asian, Black, Southeast Asian, Latin American, West Asian/Arab (Middle East), South Asian. 4

6 Primary Outcome Age-standardized 1-year incidence rate of a major cardiovascular event (22-211) Defined as a composite outcome consisting of: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) Heart Attack Stroke Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) Cardiovascular (CVD) death (All results standardized to the 26 Ontario census population) 6
7 Cardiac Risk Factor Score Purpose: To quantify the relative combined burden of four traditional modifiable cardiac risk factors smoking, diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. A points-based score using similar methods to those used in creating the Framingham risk score. (Sullivan LM, Statist Med 24;23:1631-6) Points for each risk factor are determined from β- coefficients from a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. Higher scores = higher risk 7
8 Cardiac Risk Factor Score Points System Risk Factor Category Males Points Females Points Age (years) Hypertension 1 1 Diabetes 2 2 Total cholesterol (mmol/l) < HDL cholesterol (mmol/l) < Smoker 2 2 * Categories in bold are the reference categories. Total points range (minimum maximum) -4 to 14-3 to 13 8
9 Statistical Analyses Age-standardized 1-year incidence rates per 1 personyears follow-up were calculated using the 26 Ontario population aged 3 to 74 as the standard population. Sex-stratified analyses by country of birth for those 29 countries with at least 5 immigrants to Ontario. Pearson correlation coefficients to examine the association between the mean ethnic-group specific cardiac risk factor score and the ethnic-group specific incidence rate of cardiovascular events. Sex-stratified, sequential Cox proportional hazard modelling to investigate differences in the primary outcome between ethnic groups and the long-term resident cohort. 9

20 Summary The 1-year incidence of major cardiovascular events is 3% lower in male and female immigrants as compared with long-term residents of Ontario. Striking 4-fold variation in event rates between immigrants from different ethnic backgrounds. Lower rates of smoking and obesity in most immigrant groups likely contribute to the healthy immigrant effect. East Asian immigrants have the lowest CVD event rates, but the rates increase dramatically with longer duration of residence in Canada. Immigrants of South Asian origin and those born in Iraq and Afghanistan have the highest risk of cardiovascular events. Variations in CVD event rates can be explained in part by variations in the burden of traditional cardiovascular risk factors but other factors (e.g. lifestyle, environment, genetics, etc.) also likely play an important role. 2
