prevent_cvd_risk: PREVENT Risk Score for Cardiovascular Disease Events

Description

Calculates the 10-year risk of total cardiovascular disease (CVD) events using the American Heart Association's PREVENT equations. This model includes predictors such as age, sex, cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, eGFR, and BMI, and accounts for current treatments.

Usage

prevent_cvd_risk(age, sex, total_cholesterol, hdl_cholesterol, systolic_bp,
                 diabetes, smoking, egfr, bmi, current_treatment_hypertension,
                 current_treatment_statins)
