Brief Summary
The role of lipids as risk factors for cardiovascular events is well-documented, although events studied have largely been broad classes without specific detail. This study will examine a more refined set of endpoints.

All cohort
Initially healthy patients in General Practise Research Database (GPRD) meeting the inclusion criteria at any point between 1st January 2001 and 25th March 2010
Eligibility Criteria
The cohort used in the present analysis was drawn from patients registered with 225 GPRD general practices in England which consented to data linkage, covering approximately 5% of the UK population. We used an open cohort design, where participants joined the cohort when they met the inclusion criteria at any point between 1st January 2001 and 25th March 2010, the date of the last GPRD data submission. Patients were included in cohort if, prior to study entry, they were aged 30 to 100, had at least one year of electronic health record data which meet General Practice Research Database data quality standards, and had no record indicating any cardiovascular disease phenotypes. Patients were followed up until the date of an initial presentation of one of our cardiovascular endpoints or were censored on the date of leaving the practice or the date of last data submission from their practice.
You may qualify if:
- Aged 30 to 100, had at least one year of electronic health record data which meet General Practice Research Database data quality standards
You may not qualify if:
- No record indicating any cardiovascular disease phenotypes
