What it calculates

The “Reynolds Risk” calculator computes 10-year CVD risk (Reynolds) in % from 10 parameters: sex (0 = male, 1 = female), age (years), systolic bp (mmHg), hs-crp (mg/L), total cholesterol (mmol/L), hdl cholesterol (mmol/L), smoking (1 = yes), parental mi before age 60 (1 = yes), diabetes mellitus (1 = yes), hba1c (if diabetic) (%).

Used by professionals and patients to assess health metrics, dosages, and risks.

Example calculation

With parameters Sex (0 = male, 1 = female) = 1, Age = 55 years, Systolic BP = 130 mmHg, hs-CRP = 1.5 mg/L, Total cholesterol = 5.5 mmol/L, HDL cholesterol = 1.3 mmol/L, Smoking (1 = yes) = 0, Parental MI before age 60 (1 = yes) = 0, Diabetes mellitus (1 = yes) = 0, HbA1c (if diabetic) = 7 % the result is 1.7 % (The men's model was developed in non-diabetic subjects; HbA1c is used only for diabetic women).

How to use

  1. Enter sex (0 = male, 1 = female), age, systolic bp, hs-crp, total cholesterol, hdl cholesterol, smoking (1 = yes), parental mi before age 60 (1 = yes), diabetes mellitus (1 = yes) and hba1c (if diabetic) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
  2. 10-year CVD risk (Reynolds) (%) is calculated automatically as you type.

FAQ

How is BMI calculated?
BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)². Example: 70 kg / (1.75 m)² = 22.9. The WHO normal range is 18.5–24.9; below that is underweight, 25–29.9 is overweight, and 30+ is obese.
Is BMI accurate for everyone?
No. BMI does not distinguish muscle from fat, so athletes may show a high BMI with low body fat. It is also less reliable for teenagers, pregnant people, older adults, and very tall or short individuals.
What are the BMI categories?
Underweight: below 18.5. Normal: 18.5–24.9. Overweight: 25–29.9. Obese class I: 30–34.9; class II: 35–39.9; class III: 40+.
What is a better measure than BMI?
Body fat percentage, waist-to-height ratio (aim for under 0.5), and waist circumference give a clearer picture of health than BMI alone.
