Heart Attack or Stroke QRISK®3-2018 risk calculator

[jetman]

QRISK3 calculator to present and an approximation of a person's risk of developing a heart attack or stroke over the next 10 years,
https://www.qrisk.org/index.php

My 10-year QRISK®3 score = 10.7%
The score of a healthy person with the same age, sex, and ethnicity = 14.6%
Relative risk = 0.7
My QRISK®3 Healthy Heart Age = 64

Yours?

Your 10-year QRISK®3 score = 5.2%
The score of a healthy person with the same age, sex, and ethnicity = 9.7%
Relative risk = 0.5
Your QRISK®3 Healthy Heart Age = 54

That was a waste of time. My cardiologist (who is also my Family Practitioner) does not agree.

Please stop.

Just for giggles:

16.8
10.4
1.6
73

My cardiologist also has a different prediction. That I will succumb to some other malady long before anything heart or vascular related. Just recently did a cardio stress ultrasound and stayed on the machine (Bruce protocol) for 18 minutes with normal echo results. Having new plumbing installed 10 years ago seems to have done me well.

Dubious accuracy

Ya think? Not many of us live in the UK either, which is where this comparison data originates.

I tried, but my laptop started to smoke.

Looks like I’m fixin’ to blow a gasket

Again, Ridiculous! Missing so many variables and yet predicts your risk of a cardiac event to three significant figures?!

Just curious, what is your real age?

I mean unless someone has some serious underlying or congenital problem, the risk of someone under 30 having a heart attack is crazy small.

With me, it seems counter intuitive - but I think the thing gets wonky upper 60's+ (and maybe under 35 or so). Just play with the numbers and settings to see. I am largely ignorant of the mental illness/drugs roles though.

I really don't think Cholesterol/HDL ratio is a great predictor, there is more and more research saying that just ain't so.

And lastly just having a binary toggle for diabetes. I mean someone like me with A1C around 7, good diet is not gonna blow a gasket as fast as someone piping an A1C of 12+ mainly because hormonal and inflammation markers (cell health) will be solidly different.

I almost feel like I filled something out wrong *LOL* (meaning I thought it would be worse)
But it's all in fun.

Probably not a crazy thing to say you are decently healthy and the factors they are looking at don't impact you.

So watch out for runaway gravel trucks. And stuff.

With that, if you have grand and great grand parents living a long time, you will as well.

My paternal grandmother lived to 101 and all 3 other grandparents made it to their mid 80s. My father is 84 and in decent health. But my mother died of cancer at 64 so there’s that

Cancer is sometimes said to have some genetic connections. I have not studied that. I've heard maybe breast and ovarian cancer may have a genetic predisposition.

I never do these kind of self assessments. The results always come back that I'm already deceased.
