Aboriginal to non-Aboriginal differentials in 2-year outcomes following non-fatal first-ever acute MI persist after adjustment for comorbidity

Abstract
Aims: To re-estimate the SCORE risk function using individual data on risk factors and coronary heart disease (CHD) incidence from the Dutch Cardiovascular Registry Maastricht (CAREMA) population-based cohort study; to evaluate changes that may improve risk prediction after re-estimation; and to compare the performance of the resulting CAREMA risk function with that of existing risk scores.
