Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Evaluation of: Sehestedt T, Jeppesen J, Hansen TW et al.: Risk stratification with the risk chart from the European Society of Hypertension compared with SCORE in the general population. J. Hypertens. 27, 2351-2357 (2009). Risk factor assessment is an important issue in preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases. Three widely used risk charts: the Framingham, Systemic Coronary Risk Evaluation and the European Society of Hypertension/European Society of Cardiology charts, are discussed, and a recent study by Sehestedt et al. comparing systemic coronary risk evaluation and the European Society of Hypertension/European Society of Cardiology chart, is also evaluated in this article.
