Association of Cardiovascular Risk Using Nonlinear Heart Rate Variability Measures with the Framingham Risk Score in a Rural Population

Association of Cardiovascular Risk Using Nonlinear Heart Rate Variability Measures with the Framingham Risk Score in a Rural Population

Cardiovascular risk can be calculated using the Framingham cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk score and provides a risk stratification from mild to very high CVD risk percentage over 10 years. This equation represents a complex interaction between age, gender, cholesterol status, blood pressure, diab...
