- W2034836798 abstract "Background and Aim: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death even in developing countries. The Framingham Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) formula only estimates CHD and this may underestimate the total risk due to other CV causes. This paper exams and compares the general CVD risk profile against the Framingham CHD risk score of individuals in a developing country. Methods: An epidemiological survey of a semi-rural community was conducted. Subjects aged 55 years and above were selected by attendance at a free health screening service in the community. A standardized questionnaire was applied by interview. History of diabetes, smoking, hypertension were captured. Blood pressure was measured using a standardised mercury sphygmomanometer. Serum lipids were also measured. The Framingham CHD Risk Score based on total cholesterol was used as a measure of CHD risk and the general CV Risk formula from the Framingham Heart Study was used for total CVD risk. Separate charts were used for men and women. Results: 1417 subjects participated. The response rate was 56%. A follow-up survey of the non-responders did not show any differences from the initial responders in any systematic way. The mean age of the subjects was 65.4 years, 53% were men. 34.9% were current smokers, 10.7% reported diabetes, 52.3% had BP>140/90mmHg, 69.1% had total cholesterol >5.2 mmol/l The mean 10 year CHD risk was 20–25% and 11–13% for men and women respectively. The mean general 10 year CVD risk was >30% and 14–16% for men and women respectively. The distribution of the different risk categories changed from 14.9% to 11.8% for low, 48.5 to 24.5% for medium and 36.6 to 63.7% for high risk based on the CHD and CVD scores respectively. Conclusion: The general CVD risk score is able to identify more people at higher risk for other CV events rather than for just CHD alone. As such the general CVD profile risk estimation may be a better tool for identifying those at CVD risk." @default.
