Abbreviation: FINDRISC, Finnish Diabetes Risk Score.
p‐Values only calculated to assess the difference by HIV status.
Non‐lab Framingham Scores were calculated using data on sex, age, systolic blood pressure, current treatment for hypertension smoking status, diabetes and BMI. Final risk score indicates the likelihood of developing coronary heart disease in the next 10 years.
Lab‐based Framingham Scores were calculated using data on sex, age, systolic blood pressure, current treatment for hypertension smoking status, diabetes, total cholesterol and HDL. Final risk score indicates the likelihood of developing coronary heart disease in the next 10 years.
Final score calculation excludes three pts as the question inquiring whether extending family members have diabetes was not included in the study questionnaire. Therefore, the total number of possible points equalled to 35 instead of 38 in the standard FINDRISC score calculator.
One in 100 will on average develop diabetes in the next 10 years.
