Table 4.
Remaining lifetime risk of first cancer or major cardiovascular disease event by age reached free of events in participants of Physicians’ Health Study
| Age (years) | Remaining lifetime risk (%) (95% CI) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| All cancer | Major cardiovascular disease | All cardiovascular disease | |
| 40 | 45.1 (43.8 to 46.3) | 34.8 (33.1 to 36.5) | 41.3 (39.9 to 42.7) |
| 50 | 44.5 (43.3 to 45.7) | 34.5 (32.8 to 36.2) | 40.5 (39.1 to 41.9) |
| 60 | 42.9 (41.6 to 44.2) | 33.0 (31.2 to 34.8) | 38.0 (36.5 to 39.5) |
| 70 | 36.6 (35.2 to 38.0) | 30.5 (28.5 to 32.4) | 33.2 (31.5 to 34.9) |
| 80 | 24.3 (22.5 to 26.1) | 25.7 (23.3 to 29.1) | 24.9 (22.7 to 27.1) |
| 90 | 9.6 (7.2 to 11.9) | 16.7 (12.9 to 20.6) | 13.7 (10.3 to 17.2) |
Remaining lifetime risk=mortality adjusted cumulative risk conditional on disease-free survival to age specified.
