Cardiovascular disease risk factors: improvements in knowledge and behavior in the 1980s.

E Frank¹, M Winkleby, S P Fortmann, J W Farquhar.

Abstract

This study surveyed 4158 adults residing in two control cities of the Stanford Five-City Project. Analysis of five cross-sectional surveys (conducted in 1979 through 1990) demonstrated improvements in respondents' general cardiovascular disease risk factor knowledge and behaviors. Cholesterol-related knowledge and behavior showed particularly marked improvements.
