About Framingham Risk Score

The Framingham Risk Score is a gender-specific algorithm used to estimate the 10-year cardiovascular risk of an individual. The Framingham Risk Score was first developed based on data obtained from the Framingham Heart Study, to estimate the 10-year risk of developing coronary heart disease.¹Wilson PW, D’Agostino RB, Levy D, Belanger AM, Silbershatz H, Kannel WB (May 1998). “Prediction of coronary heart disease using risk factor categories”. Circulation. 97 (18): 1837–47. doi:10.1161/01.cir.97.18.1837. PMID 9603539 Later on in the year 2008, other heart diseases such as cerebrovascular events, peripheral artery disease, and heart failure diseases were added on top of coronary artery disease.

Clinical Relevance

Framingham Risk Score is the Gold-Standard screening biomarker for the assessment of 10-year cardiac risk. This score is not only a globally accepted metric in preventive and intervention cardiology but also a metric globally used by Insurance companies.

Various phenotypes and associations are being done like in the last study. Such analysis provides a further clue that better Hypertension management is important for averting the risk of heart disease. Therefore FRS may be used for Hypertension management also.

Caution for Anyone Using FRS(FRS Overestimates the Risk in High Risk Category)

6643 men, 2.8% (95% confidence interval 2.4% to 3.2%) died from coronary heart disease compared with 4.1% predicted (relative overestimation 47%, P < 0.0001). A fatal or non-fatal coronary heart disease event occurred in 10.2% (9.5% to 10.9%) of the men compared with 16.0% predicted (relative overestimation 57%, P < 0.0001). These relative degrees of overestimation were similar at all levels of coronary heart disease risk, so the overestimation of absolute risk was greatest for those at the highest risk. A simple adjustment provided an improved level of accuracy. In a “high-risk score” approach, most cases occur in the low-risk group. In this case, 84% of the deaths from coronary heart disease and non-fatal events occurred in the 93% of men classified at low risk (< 30% in 10 years) by the Framingham score.²Brindle P, Emberson J, Lampe F, et al.
