Cardiovascular disease (CVD), a cause of mortality worldwide, accounted for 28% of United Kingdom deaths in 20121. Risk reduction is based on improving modifiable risk factors with lipid lowering therapy being particularly useful2. Because of the imp...

We demonstrate the use of electronic records and repeated measures of risk factors therein, to enable deeper understanding of the relationship between the full longitudinal trajectory of risk factors and outcomes. To illustrate, dynamic mixed effect... Read More about A Two-stage Dynamic Model to Enable Updating of Clinical Risk Prediction from Longitudinal Health Record Data: illustrated with Kidney Function.
