In RiskScorescvd: Cardiovascular Risk Scores Calculator

SCORE2-Asia-Pacific

Description

This function calculates the 10-year cardiovascular risk estimation for patients aged 40 to 69 years using the \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/eurheartj/ehae609")} SCORE2-Asia-Pacific algorithm. Risk score is expressed as percentage in one decimal place. It also categorises these patients into different risk groups.

Usage

SCORE2_Asia_Pacific(
  Risk.region,
  Age,
  Gender,
  smoker,
  systolic.bp,
  total.chol,
  total.hdl,
  diabetes,
  classify = FALSE
)

Arguments

Risk.region	Input character to indicate an Asian or Oceania risk region group the patient belongs to. The allowed categories are Low Moderate High Very high
Age	Input positive integer to indicate the age of the patient.
Gender	Input character to indicate the gender of the patient. The allowed categories are male female
smoker	Input integer 0 or 1 to indicate if the patient is a current smoker. 0 stands for patient is either a former/past smoker or a non-smoker. 1 stands for patient is a current smoker.
systolic.bp	Input positive numeric value to indicate the patient's systolic blood pressure in mm HG.
total.chol	Input positive numeric value to indicate the patient's total cholesterol in mmol/L.
total.hdl	Input positive numeric value to indicate the patient's high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in mmol/L.
diabetes	Input integer 0 or 1 to indicate if the patient has diabetes. 0 stands for not having diabetes. 1 stands for having diabetes.
classify	When set to TRUE, the function will return the patient's risk group based on the SCORE2-Asia-Pacific risk score in percentage rounded to one decimal place. Default: FALSE. Risk groups are classified based on Figure 3 from the \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/eurheartj/ehad192")} 2023 ESC Guidelines for the management of cardiovascular disease in patients with diabetes: SCORE2-Asia-Pacific Score 10-year Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Risk Group <5\% Low risk 5\% to <10\% Moderate risk 10\% to <20\% High risk \ge20\% Very high risk

Details

SCORE2-Asia-Pacific \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/eurheartj/ehae609")} was developed by extending the SCORE2 \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/eurheartj/ehab309")} algorithms using 8405574 participants (556421 CVD events) from the Asia-Pacific regions without previous CVD.

Value

SCORE2-Asia-Pacific \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/eurheartj/ehae609")} risk score expressed as a positive percentage rounded to one decimal place when classify is FALSE. A patient's risk group when classify is TRUE.

Examples

# 50 years old male from low risk region
# who is a smoker, non-diabetic
# with a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg,
# total cholesterol of 5.5 mmol/L,
# HDL cholesterol of 1.3 mmol/L,
# will have a risk score of 10.3 and
# at high risk of CVD.
