Incidence of MI variable #10

In relation to question #6, there is a variable in the MESA dictionary listed as major21 and major31 that are variables that are indicating the history of having a myocardial infarction. Would this be an okay variable to use, or would we still like to look for a specific variable in incidence?

@simar7511 My opinion would be, for now at least, to make a note of any variable that could contain useful information regarding myocardial infarction.
