Dr. Chang's research interests center on chronic disease epidemiology with specific focus on hypertension management, cardiovascular outcomes, and sex differences in health among Veterans. Her work examines how patient- and system-level factors impact blood pressure control and medication adherence, particularly among young Veterans. She investigates geographic disparities in stroke care, medication non-adherence due to cost barriers, and the relationship between mental health conditions and cardiovascular outcomes. Her research employs both population-based survey data and clinical registry analysis to address these critical public health questions.
Analysis of Dr. Chang's recent publications reveals consistent focus on cardiovascular epidemiology with emphasis on sex-specific outcomes, medication adherence, and healthcare disparities. Her work spans hypertension management, stroke outcomes, and heart failure prevention, with particular attention to younger populations and Veterans. She frequently employs large national datasets to examine patterns of care and outcomes across demographic groups, with increasing focus on social determinants of health in her most recent work.
Dr. Chang actively collaborates with leading researchers including Harlan Krumholz, Erica Leifheit, and Shu-Xia Li through Yale's Center for Outcomes Research & Evaluation. Her research has been supported by initiatives including the Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Program and CDC-funded projects examining cardiovascular health metrics. She has contributed to national efforts tracking cardiac rehabilitation participation and medication adherence patterns among Medicare beneficiaries.
Dr. Chang's work is integrated within Yale's robust cardiovascular research ecosystem, connecting with the Yale Center for Outcomes Research & Evaluation (CORE), the Section of General Internal Medicine, and the Veterans Affairs healthcare system. Her research contributes to ongoing efforts to improve cardiovascular care quality and reduce disparities in hypertension management and stroke outcomes.
