| dc.description.abstract | Current guidelines recommend that decisions to start preventative therapy for cardiovascular disease (CVD) should be based on absolute risk; however, current risk equations are based on single measurements of risk factors. We aimed to assess whether two measurements of blood pressure and lipids improves the prediction of cardiovascular risk compared to one measurement. | en |
