Hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia and the metabolic syndrome are important risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In older people with intellectual disability (ID), CVD is a substantial morbidity risk. The aims of the present study, which was part of the Healthy Ageing in Intellectual Disability (HA-ID) study, were (1) to determine the prevalence of CVD risk factors in older people with ID and to compare this with the prevalence in the same-aged general population, (2) to determine how many risk factors had not been previously diagnosed, and (3) to identify correlates of CVD risk factors (gender, age, level of ID, Down syndrome, independent living, activities of daily living, mobility, instrumental activities of daily liv...
