In epidemiology, the Framingham Heart Study was a cohort study that started in 1948 for the objective of:[1]
- "The objective of the Framingham Heart Study was to identify the common factors or characteristics that contribute to CVD by following its development over a long period of time in a large group of participants who had not yet developed overt symptoms of CVD or suffered a heart attack or stroke."
The study was sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of Health.
Research that has emerged from the study includes:
- Framingham risk score[2][3]
- Framingham congestive-heart-failure score
- Framingham atrial fibrillation risk
