AUC = area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; G-B statistic = Grønnesby – Borgan goodness-of-fit statistic; IDI = integrated discrimination improvement; NRI = net reclassification improvement
Base model for CHD: model based on ARIC Coronary Risk Score (age, gender, race, total cholesterol, HDL-C, systolic blood pressure, use of antihypertensive medications, smoking status, and presence of diabetes defined as fasting blood glucose >126 mg/dL or use of antidiabetic medications).
Base model for total mortality and HF: ARIC Coronary Risk Score + BMI + presence of LVH on ECG + serum creatinine.
