Socioeconomic inequalities, modifiable lifestyle risk factors, and retinal vessel calibers: The African‐PREDICT Study

Lifestyle risk factors vary between socioeconomic status (SES) groups and may influence cardiovascular function differently. The retinal microvasculature allows for monitoring early changes in cardiovascular health, and therefore, we investigated… Click to show full abstract
