[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS 9R0xnCqB. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. We investigated associations of socioeconomic position (SEP) with chronic disease risk factors, and heterogeneity in this patterning by provincial-level urbanicity in Argentina. Methods. We used generalized estimating equations to determine the relationship between SEP and body mass index, high blood pressure, diabetes, low physical activity, and eating fruit and vegetables, and examined heterogeneity by urbanicity with nationally representative, cross-sectional survey data from 2005. All estimates were age adjusted and gender stratified. Results. Among men living in less urban areas, higher education was either not associated with the risk factors or associated adversely. In more urban areas, higher education was associated with better risk factor profiles (P<. for of risk factors among women higher education was associated with better factor profiles in all areas and more strongly urban than less diet men physical activity were exceptions to this trend. conclusions. these results provide evidence the increased burden chronic disease those lower sep especially areas.>
