Sensitivity analyses: percent of projected cardiovascular outcomes attributable to selected risk factors in Argentina, 2005–2015. Risk factor risk coefficients for the main estimates were estimated from the Framingham Heart Study and estimates include projected 95% confidence intervals based on the 95% confidence intervals of the relative risk estimates.
