Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Various indicators of childhood socioeconomic position have been related to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in adulthood. We investigated the impact of shared family factors on the educational gradient in midlife CVD risk factors by assessing within sibling similarities in the gradient using a discordant sibling design. METHODS: Norwegian health survey data (1980-2003) was linked to educational and...
