abstract = {Inclusion of clinical parameters limits the application of
most cardiovascular disease (CVD) prediction models to
clinical settings. We developed and externally validated a
non-clinical CVD risk score with a clinical extension and
compared the performance to established CVD risk scores. We
derived the scores predicting CVD (non-fatal and fatal
myocardial infarction and stroke) in the European
Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition
(EPIC)-Potsdam cohort (n = 25,992, cases = 683) using
competing risk models and externally validated in
EPIC-Heidelberg (n = 23,529, cases = 692). Performance was
assessed by C-indices, calibration plots, and
expected-to-observed ratios and compared to a non-clinical
model, the Pooled Cohort Equation, Framingham CVD Risk
Scores (FRS), PROCAM scores, and the Systematic Coronary
Risk Evaluation (SCORE). Our non-clinical score included
age, gender, waist circumference, smoking, hypertension,
type 2 diabetes, CVD family history, and dietary parameters.
C-indices consistently indicated good discrimination
(EPIC-Potsdam 0.786, EPIC-Heidelberg 0.762) comparable to
established clinical scores (thereof highest, FRS:
EPIC-Potsdam 0.781, EPIC-Heidelberg 0.764). Additional
clinical parameters slightly improved discrimination
(EPIC-Potsdam 0.796, EPIC-Heidelberg 0.769). Calibration
plots indicated very good calibration with minor
overestimation in the highest decile of predicted risk. The
developed non-clinical 10-year CVD risk score shows
comparable discrimination to established clinical scores,
allowing assessment of individual CVD risk in
physician-independent settings.},
