Figure 3:

Prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors in the Canadian population: projected estimates from the microsimulation model (POHEM) and observed estimates from Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) and Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS) data; 95% confidence intervals (error bars) are shown for the survey data. Obesity = body mass index ≥ 30, hypertension = systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg, high cholesterol = total cholesterol ≥ 6.22 mmol/L. *POHEM projections for hypertension and high cholesterol level are calibrated.
