Association between cumulative exposure to ideal cardiovascular health and arterial stiffness

Ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) is associated with reduced risk of cardiac and cerebral events. Arterial stiffness plays an important role in the progress of cardiac and cerebral events, but it is unclear whether ideal CVH, in particular, cumulative exposure to ideal CVH (cumCVH), is associated with reduced risk of arterial stiffness. We examined the association between cumCVH and arterial stiffness using data from the Kailuan Study.The study...
