The spatial distribution of the individual, household and district SAMPI covariate-adjusted smoothed estimated spatial odds for each of the four disease-specific risks (HBP (a), IHD (b), stroke (c) and dyslipidaemia (d)) in the South African National Health and Nutrition Survey, 2012. Estimated from model B spatial odds are indicative of excessive risk of a CVD in a given district.
