Estimating the Calibrating Coefficient of the Framingham Score to Predict Risk of Coronary Heart Disease in the Taiwanese Population

ConclusionWe generated Framingham calibration coefficient for the Taiwanese population. We recommend that the mean of predictors and the baseline survivorship derived from TwSHHH should be used in the model. Nonetheless, it is crucial to develop a risk function specific for this population.
