About this calculator
The original file labels this tool an “ASCVD-DM Subscore” and includes age, sex, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive treatment, smoking status, and diabetes duration.
The source does not provide a verifiable derivation cohort, validation study, calibration method, or clinically established risk categories. Its output must not be interpreted as a patient's 10-year event probability.
