The discriminative ability of each prediction model, including modifiable risk factors (obesity, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, cigarette smoking, and physical inactivity) with and without age and sex, was assessed using C statistics (Harrell C statistic). CVD indicates cardiovascular disease.
