Addressing Health Inequalities: Insights from Professor Charles Wolfe at Lambeth Conference

At the Lambeth Health Inequalities Conference in February 2012, Professor Charles Wolfe presented a comprehensive academic perspective on health disparities, particularly in stroke and cardiovascular disease. His research utilized the South London Stroke Register, analyzing data from 2,874 stroke patients to explore ethnic differences in incidence and survival rates. The findings highlighted significant disparities among different ethnic groups, such as higher stroke incidence in Black populations. Professor Wolfe advocated for targeted interventions and improved quality of care to address these inequalities.
