Association between ideal cardiovascular health and markers of subclinical cardiovascular disease

Ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) was proposed by the American Heart Association to promote population health. We aimed to characterize the association between ideal CVH and markers of subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD).We hypothesized that ideal CVH is associated with several markers of subclinical CVD.We used data from the Heart Strategies Concentrating on Risk Evaluation (Heart SCORE) study.
