to investigate the association between real estate prices, education, and mortality.cohort study.residents in Rome at the 2011 Italian Census, not living in institutions, and living in the address reported in the Census survey. People aged 18-99 years were followed from 2011 to 2016 using anonymous record linkage procedures with administrative databases. The Census includes several individual information, such as gender, age, education, residential neighbourhood. Data and cause of death were collected from mortality register. Real estate prices (euros/m2) were available for each neighbourhood.adjusted Cox regression models (hazard ratios - HRs and 95%CIs) were used to estimate the association among individual education, real estate price in the neighbourhood, and mortality.the subjects selected were 2,051,376 (54% women, 22.5% with high education level). During the follow-up, 127,352 subjects died. Taking into account gender, age, marital status, and real estate prices, education level was strongly associated with all-cause mortality; compared to highly educated the higher mortality, risk was 35% (95%CI 32%-37%) for low education level and 16% (95%CI 14%-19%) for medium education level. Taking into account the same factors and education level, each increase of 1,000 euros in price/m2 was inversely associated with mortality (HR 0.96, 95%CI 0.96-0.97).there is an independent association between the two indicators and mortality in Rome. A simple indicator such as real estate prices can be used to tackle inequalities. |
