Described are methods and kits for determining the likelihood of the presence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or pulmonary disease (PD) in a subject using ST2/Interleukin 1 Receptor Like 1 (IL1RL1) and/or Interleukin 33 (IL-33), and a biomarker for CVD, e.g., a natriuretic peptide, e.g., brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), prohormone BNP (proBNP), N-Terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), proANP, or NT-proANP.
