We calculated these transition probabilities using data
from the longitudinal National Health and Nutrition Evaluation Survey, which assessed a cohort of women in 1987 and the same women again in 1992.25 Several limitations of these data affect our model: 1) because this national survey lacks data on women before age 35 years, women in our model could not develop hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or MI before age 35 years; 2) because longitudinal survey data were only
available for a 5 - year interval, we assumed that transition probabilities were stable within the 5 - year intervals and converted these probabilities
from 5 - year to 1 - year intervals; 3) because the survey data were too few to provide stable
estimates by year of age, we used transition probabilities for women in three age groups: aged 50 years and younger, 51 — 65 years, and 65 years and older.

available observational data.
