LRS according to Lloyd‐Jones/Framingham risk algorithm25

Variable	Risk Factors
	Minor	Moderate	Major
Total cholesterol	180–199 mg/dL	200–239 mg/dL	≥240 mg/dL
SBP	120–139 mmHg	140–159 mmHg	≥160 mmHg or use of medications
DM	Absent	Absent	Present
Smoking	Absent	Absent	Present

Abbreviations: DM, diabetes mellitus; LRS, lifetime risk score; SBP, systolic blood pressure.

LRS is considered low if subjects have no risk factors, intermediate if subjects have ≥1 minor or moderate risk factor and no major risk factor, and high if they have ≥1 major risk factor.
