Table 2. Distribution of 10-year cardiovascular risk scores for 334 participants at NHS Health Checks before and after adjustment for systolic inter-arm blood pressure difference

Risk score	Before adjustment for systolic inter-arm difference		After adjustment for systolic inter-arm difference		Differences
Risk score	No (%) above risk intervention threshold^a	Mean (SD)	No (%) above risk intervention threshold^a	Adjusted mean (SD)	No (%) reclassified above threshold^b	P value (χ²)	Mean difference (SD)^b	P value (t-test)
QRISK2	104 (31.1)	8.0 (6.9)	117 (35.0)	8.9 (7.7)	13 (3.9)	<0.001	0.8 (1.4)	<0.001
ASCVD	89 (26.6)	6.9 (6.5)	92 (27.5)	7.1 (6.7)	3 (0.9)	<0.001	0.3 (0.5)	<0.001
Framingham	78 (23.4)	10.7 (8.1)	87 (26.0)	11.2 (8.5)	9 (2.7)	<0.001	0.4 (0.7)	<0.001

^aIntervention threshold is 10-year cardiovascular risk ≥10% for QRISK2 and ASCVD, ≥15% for Framingham. ^bRow proportions and means do not always total due to rounding.
No = number.
