Ridker et al reported a model for prediction of cardiovascular disease in men. The authors are from Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Parameters:
(1) age in years
(2) systolic blood pressure (SBP) in mm Hg
(3) total serum cholesterol in mg/dL
(4) serum HDL cholesterol in mg/dL
(5) current smoker
(6) serum hsCRP in mg/L
(7) parental history of premature myocardial infarction
