A new look at risk patterns related to coronary heart disease incidence using survival tree analysis: 12 Years Longitudinal Study
Abstract We identified risk patterns associated with incident coronary heart disease (CHD) using survival tree, and compared performance of survival tree versus Cox proportional hazards (Cox PH) in a cohort of Iranian adults. Data on 8,279 participants (3,741 men) aged ≥30 yr were used to analysis....

| Sumario: | Abstract We identified risk patterns associated with incident coronary heart disease (CHD) using survival tree, and compared performance of survival tree versus Cox proportional hazards (Cox PH) in a cohort of Iranian adults. Data on 8,279 participants (3,741 men) aged ≥30 yr were used to analysis. Survival trees identified seven subgroups with different risk patterns using four [(age, non-HDL-C, fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and family history of diabetes] and five [(age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), non-HDL-C, FPG and family history of CVD] predictors in women and men, respectively. Additional risk factors were identified by Cox models which included: family history of CVD and waist circumference (in both genders); hip circumference, former smoking and using aspirin among men; diastolic blood pressure and lipid lowering drug among women. Survival trees and multivariate Cox models yielded comparable performance, as measured by integrated Brier score (IBS) and Harrell’s C-index on validation datasets; however, survival trees produced more parsimonious models with a minimum number of well recognized risk factors of CHD incidence, and identified important interactions between these factors which have important implications for intervention programs and improve clinical decision making. |
