– Women with polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) exhibit racial disparities in risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
– Asian women with PMOS have a lower risk of ASCVD compared to White women, while Black and Hispanic women have higher risks.
– After adjusting for social determinants of health (SDoH), increased ASCVD risk among Black women is no longer significant, indicating the strong influence of SDoH.
– The findings underscore the critical role of socioeconomic factors in cardiovascular risk stratification for women with PMOS.
