more information

for males and females, risk is lower for age below 55 years

more information

smoking usually has the biggest impact on risk of all the modifiable factors in this calculator

more information

diabetes is not modifiable, but it is a very big factor in this calculator

more information

requiring a blood pressure medication increases risk

more information

taking a lipid-lowering medication lowers risk (independent of the cholesterol level)

more information

130 mg/dL is optimal

more information

100 is optimal

more information

140 is optimal

more information

110 is the optimal systolic blood pressure

more information

BMI is not actually a factor for total risk, ASCVD risk, CHD, or stroke. But it is a risk for CHF and 25 is the optimal BMI. A BMI calculator is here.

more information

Optional. Urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR), mg/g
UACR is clinically indicated for individuals with chronic kidney disease, diabetes, or hypertension. 0 is the optimal urine albumin-creatinine ratio.

more information

Optional. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), %
HbA1c is clinically indicated for individuals with diabetes, prediabetes, overweight, or obesity, or those with history of gestational diabetes. 3 is the optimal hemoglobin A1c.

more information

Optional. ZIP code is used to retrieve the SDI (Social Deprivation Index) decile. Lower SDI decile values are more favorable. A little more detail on this is at this page. And 90210 is the optimal zip code
