CVD risk assessment sample dataset
The sample dataset was selected from Isfahan Cardiovascular Research Center (ICRC). It was de-identified due to the restrictions on individual-level data (Personal Health Information Protection Act) based on [1,2]. They could be used to identify 10-year CVD incidence risk based on the model proposed in the corresponding publication [3].
The representative age category could be used in the model instead of the exact age that had been removed since it was potentially identifying as the recruitment period was short and was fully described [1]. Since the Hazard Ratio of age was 1.038, the estimated risks are comparable to what was obtained with the exact age. The categories of Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Total Cholesterol (Tch) were used in the model, and thus here provided. High waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) was defined as WHR ≥ 0.80 in women and ≥ 0.95 in men.
