SCORE2-Older Persons
Biological sex selecting the source-defined sex-specific SCORE2-OP equation; male maps to source code 1 and female maps to source code 2.
Baseline age for SCORE2-OP. The intended clinical population is aged 70 years or older; the recovered source code does not impose an upper age limit.
Current smoking status. Yes means current smoker; no means other/not current smoker.
History of diabetes. Yes corresponds to definite diabetes history in the author implementation.
Baseline systolic blood pressure.
Baseline total cholesterol.
Baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
European SCORE2/SCORE2-OP risk region. Low, moderate, high, and very_high map to source-code numeric values 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively.
Clinical noticeThis clinical tool supports decision-making and does not replace individual medical assessment.
Context and use
The 10-year SCORE2-OP equation applies sex-specific coefficients to centered age, current smoking, diabetes history, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol, incorporates competing risk, and recalibrates the result for the selected European risk region.
