Table 4. Lifetime risk estimatesa for total CVD, by sex and selected index age.
| Index Age | Men % (95% CI) | Women % (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|
| 45 | 60.3 (59.3-61.2) | 55.6 (54.5-56.7) |
| 55 | 60.2 (59.1-61.2) | 56.3 (55.2-57.4) |
| 65 | 59.0 (57.6-60.4) | 56.1 (54.7-57.5) |
| 75 | 54.5 (52.2-56.9) | 52.3 (50.3-54.3) |

The lifetime risk estimates reported above represent the percentage of cohort participants who would experience a tCVD event from the index age to the end of follow-up if the last participant in the cohort were to die at the last age of follow-up (95 years).
