Journal ArticleDOI
Framingham risk score and prediction of lifetime risk for coronary heart disease
Donald M. Lloyd-Jones,Peter W. F. Wilson,Martin G. Larson,Martin G. Larson,Alexa S. Beiser,Alexa S. Beiser,Eric P. Leip,Eric P. Leip,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Daniel Levy,Daniel Levy +10 more
TL;DR: The Framingham 10-year CHD risk prediction model may not identify subjects with low short-term but high lifetime risk for CHD, likely due to changes in risk factor status over time, and further work is needed to generate multivariate risk models that can reliably predict lifetime risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
NIDDM and Blood Pressure as Risk Factors for Poor Cognitive Performance: The Framingham Study
Penelope K. Elias,Merrill F. Elias,Ralph B. D'Agostino,L. A. Cupples,Peter W. F. Wilson,Halit Silbershatz,Philip A. Wolf +6 more
TL;DR: NIDDM and blood pressure interacted such that diagnosis and duration of NIDDM were associated with greater risk of poor performance on tests of visual memory and on the composite score for hypertensive subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
A common truncation variant of lipoprotein lipase (Ser447X) confers protection against coronary heart disease: the Framingham Offspring Study
S. E. Gagne,Martin G. Larson,Simon N. Pimstone,Ernst J. Schaefer,J.J.P. Kastelein,Peter W. F. Wilson,Jose M. Ordovas,Michael R. Hayden +7 more
TL;DR: This study represents the first report on the impact of this mutation on CHD in men from the general population, and it is concluded that the S447X variant may confer significant protection against high TG levels, low HDL‐C, and prematureCHD in these subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short stature and risk for mortality and cardiovascular disease events. The Framingham Heart Study.
TL;DR: Examining the original Framingham Heart Study cohort to determine whether short stature is associated with all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease mortality, and myocardial infarction after adjusting for age and other traditional coronary heart disease risk factors found it was not associated with increased risk for all- Cause or cardiovascular mortality in either sex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attained Educational Level and Incident Atherothrombotic Events in Low- and Middle-Income Compared With High-Income Countries
Abhinav Goyal,Deepak L. Bhatt,P. Gabriel Steg,Bernard J. Gersh,Mark J. Alberts,E. Magnus Ohman,Ramon Corbalan,Kim A. Eagle,Efrain Gaxiola,Runlin Gao,Shinya Goto,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Robert M. Califf,Sidney C. Smith,Peter W. F. Wilson +14 more
TL;DR: Higher AEL may not be protective against cardiovascular events in LMICs, particularly in women, in contrast to HICs.
