Percent of rheumatic disease patients with any cardiovascular disease hospitalization by rheumatic disease type and by race. This figure excludes spondyloarthritis, vasculitis, Sjögren syndrome, systemic sclerosis and myopathy because there were fewer than 50 people in each of these groups with a cardiovascular disease hospitalization. Comparisons by race were statistically significant (at p < 0.01) for all rheumatic disease types displayed except rheumatoid arthritis (p = 0.53) and SLE/MCTD (p = 0.71). Abbreviations: RD (rheumatic disease), OA (osteoarthritis), RA (rheumatoid arthritis), SLE/MCTD (systemic lupus erythematosus or mixed connective tissue disease), AN/AI (Alaska Native or American Indian)
