However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between SES and HF morbidity and mortality. We performed a systematic search and data synthesis using six databases following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Guidelines. The included studies comprised observational studies that reported on HF incidence and prevalence, HF hospitalizations, worsening HF (WHF) and all-cause mortality, as well as treatment options (medical, device and advanced HF therapies). SES was measured on both individual and area levels, encompassing single (e.g., income, education, employment, social risk score, living conditions and housing characteristics) and composite indicators. Among the 4124 studies screened, 79 were included, with an additional 5 identified through cross-referencing. In the majority of studies, a low SES was associated with an increased HF incidence (72%) and prevalence (75%). For mortality, we demonstrated that low SES was associated with increased mortality in 45% of the studies, with 18% of the studies showing mixed results (depending on the indicator, gender or follow-up) and 38% showing non-significant results. Similar patterns were observed for the association between SES, WHF, medical therapy prescriptions and the utilization of devices and advanced HF therapies. There was no clear pattern in the used SES indicators and HF outcomes. This systematic review, using contemporary data, shows that while socio-economic disparity may influence HF incidence, management and subsequent adverse events, these associations are not uniformly predictive. Our review highlights that the impact of SES varies depending on the specific indicators used, reflecting the complexity of its influence on health disparities. Assessment and recognition of SES as an important risk factor can assist clinicians in early detection and customizing HF treatment, while also aiding policymakers in optimizing resource allocation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ehf2.14986","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,25]],"date-time":"2024-09-25T10:49:10Z","timestamp":1727261350000},"page":"927-941","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Socio-Economic
