Cardiovascular risk factors in the elderly
Open accessAbstract
The relation of total plasma cholesterol to the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) was one of the first findings of the Framingham Heart Study. The Framingham data established that a 1% increase in total cholesterol produced a 2% increase in CHD incidence. This relation has now been shown to apply to persons aged 60 to 70 years as well as to younger persons. The risk of CHD associated with various factors, including total cholesterol, low- and high-density lipoprotein and triglyceride levels, uric acid, blood glucose level, fibrinogen level and hypertensive blood pressure, is discussed with particular reference to the elderly. New data from the Framingham group show that increased left ventricular mass may be a significant risk factor for CHD, particularly among the elderly.

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.
