Predisposition to Atherosclerosis in the Head, Heart, and Legs: The Framingham Study
Abstract
Findings from a 16-year follow-up study of 5,209 Framingham adults indicate that blood pressure, serum cholesterol, cigarette smoking, electrocardiographic evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, and glucose intolerance are precursors common to all three major atherosclerotic events—atherosclerotic brain infarction (ABI), coronary heart disease (CHD), and intermittent claudication (IC). The dominant factor predisposing to ABI is high blood pressure. None is clearly dominant for CHD. Glucose intolerance is only weakly related to this disease while cigarette smoking is related weakly (if at all) to angina pectoris. All five factors play an important role in IC. In general, relationships appear to be as strong for women as men. When all five variables are considered jointly, they have a closer relationship with ABI and IC than with CHD, and equally strong relationships in every age group between 45 and 74 years of age.

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.
