  1. Net reclassification improvement (NRI) = 5.9% P = 0.018, IDI = 0.010 ± 0.003, P < 0.001. Framingham risk factors included age, body mass index, smoking, systolic blood pressure and diabetes. ASVD indicates atherosclerotic vascular disease; eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate and MDRD Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation.
