Novel risk factors for type 2 diabetes and other adverse cardiometabolic outcomes – handgrip strength and other markers of physical fitness

Project Description. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Older age, obesity and lifestyle factors such as physical inactivity, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and unhealthy diet are major risk factors for T2D. Read more

Repurposing and enriching cardiovascular risk prediction model to identify people at risk of cancer – UCL (part of Health Data Research UK’s Big Data for Complex Disease Driver Programme)

Risk-stratified management of cardiovascular disease (CVD), where people without established disease receive preventative interventions and monitoring based on their 10-years predicted risk, has been highly successful to ensure healthcare resources are allocated to those most likely to benefit.
