bloodtriglycerideandHDL cholesterol levels, age, gender, and psychosocial issues. TheFramingham risk scoregives a 10-year prediction of risk of cardiovascular disease from a summation of points assigned by looking up risk factors in tables. Risk factors include patient sex, age, total cholesterol, ...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment is the cornerstone in tailoring the intensity of risk factor reduction to overall risk.1 Traditional risk factors that comprise the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) are the foundation for estimating risk in asymptomatic individuals.2 Although coronary heart disease...
Crude and Framingham Risk Score (FRS)-adjusted relative risks (RRs) of incident cardiovascular events were calculated across a full range of hsCRP levels. Cardiovascular risks increased linearly from the very lowest (referent) to the very highest levels of hsCRP. Crude RRs for those with ...
Conclusion Type 2 diabetic patients without vascular diseases have significantly higher plasma levels of AOPPs and are at a greater risk of cardiovascular events in 10 years than healthy individuals. Plasma AOPPs are positively correlated with the Framingham risk score, suggesting the value of plasma...
Prevalence of atherosclerosis beginning early in life, use of noninvasive imaging of atherosclerosis, better measurement of lipoprotein levels, awareness of importance of diseases that increase risk of coronary heart disease among women, and earlier and more frequent use of effective therapies to prevent...
Background: Epidemiologic studies have suggested associations between vitamin D status and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. The purpose of this work was to determine if vitamin D status was predictive of CHD risk assessed by Framingham risk score (FRS) in overweight, Caucasian, postmenopausal wome...
The Framingham Risk Score (FRS) and Pooled Cohort Equations (PCEs) overestimate risk in many contemporary cohorts. Objectives This study sought to determine if recalibration of these scores using contemporary population-level data improves risk stratification for statin therapy. Methods Five-year FRS ...

However, the positive predictive value of very low (10.0 mg/L) is uncertain.Baseline levels of hsCRP were evaluated among 27 939 apparently healthy women who were followed up for myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, or cardiovascular death. Crude and Framingham Risk Score (FRS...
