Conditions
Summary
The Global Cardiovascular Risk Consortium (GCVRC) brings together harmonized individual-level data from currently more than 2 million (anticipated: approximately 3 million) individuals across 133 cohorts, 40 countries, and 6 continents, with recruitment ongoing. The GCVRC examines the impact of classical cardiovascular risk factors-such as body-mass index, systolic blood pressure, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, current smoking, and diabetes-on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and death from any cause worldwide.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria1
- Population-based individual-level data with available information on the classical cardiovascular risk factors including body-mass index, systolic blood pressure, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, current smoking, and diabetes, as well as the outcomes of interest.
Exclusion Criteria4
- Participants with age below 18 years
- No information on the outcome of interest
- No information on the exposure of interest (CVD risk factors)
- History of CVD at baseline
