Implication
New joint model reveals blood pressure variability impacts cardiovascular disease risk and mortality.
Key Points
- Blood pressure variability significantly predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality risk.
- A new joint model shows a relationship between blood pressure variability and adverse health outcomes.
- The model uses random effects and a likelihood function for improved dynamic predictions.
- These findings indicate that accounting for variability enhances model accuracy in CVD risk assessments.
