Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in osteoarthritis patients derived from primary care records: a systematic review of observational studies
Journal Article
Huang, X., Wilkie, R., Mamas, M. A., & Yu, D. Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in osteoarthritis patients derived from primary care records: a systematic review of observational studies. arXiv, https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.02.14.21251130

Background People with osteoarthritis are at a high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Detecting CVD risk factors in this high-risk population will help to improve CVD outcomes. Primary care electronic health records (EHRs) provide opportunities f...
