Coronary heart disease in the Western collaborative group study. A follow-up experience of two years

Ray H. Rosenman·1966·JAMA

Abstract

A prospective study on coronary heart disease (CHD) was initiated in 1960 among 3,524 subjects at risk for its subsequent occurrence. The findings of the first two years of follow-up are presented, during which (mean 2 1/2 years of risk exposure) 70 subjects incurred the advent of manifest CHD. These findings indicate that the presence of (1) abnormalities in lipoprotein pattern, (2) hypertension, or (3) exhibition of a specific overt behavior pattern (type A) each possessed significant prognostic import. The exhibition of the behavior pattern furnished the most important single prognostic entity. Furthermore, the enhanced prognostic risk associated with hypertension or with an abnormal lipoprotein pattern became significant only when either or both of these findings occurred in the subject with type A behavior pattern.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
