Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its risk factors are more prevalent among traditionally marginalized racial, ethnic, and Indigenous groups. These populations also often face greater barriers to accessing cardiovascular health care, further contributing to the health equity gap. To address the challenge of inequalities and disparities in cardiovascular health outcomes, the Lancet Regional Health-Europe convened experts to evaluate the current state of knowledge on inequalities and disparities in cardiovascular health among marginalized populations and propose recommendations to address these disparities. This Series paper aims to review disparities in CVD referring to coronary heart disease and stroke, based on race, ethnicity, ancestry, and Indigeneity emphasizing the intersection of these factors with sex, gender, and socioeconomic status (SES) across Europe and North America. These regions were chosen as they have well established health-care systems, with persistent, and in some regions widening, disparities in cardiovascular health and outcomes. Ethnicity and race should be measured in a standardized manner in health-care administrative databases to identify high risk groups who might need focused programmes to improve health-care access and to address bias and inequities in care. Strategies that policymakers, health-care professionals, and advocacy groups can use to advance cardiovascular health equity include improving access to health-care systems and research for high-risk communities, fostering trust between these communities and public health providers, and enhancing the delivery of evidence-based therapies for the prevention and treatment of CVD.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
