Abstract
During a median of 10.3 years of follow-up, CVD was observed in 597 participants.
- Participants with a decrease in cardiovascular health (CVH) score from moderate to low had about a 128% increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
- The hazard ratio for participants with consistently low CVH scores was 2.19, indicating a higher risk of CVD compared to those with moderate CVH.
- No significant exposure-response relationship was found between changes in LE8 score and incident CVD.
- The association between changes in CVH and CVD risk varied across different patterns of CVH change.
