The aim is to investigate how surrounding greenness affects mortality rates among individuals with coronary heart disease (CHD).
Analyzed associations between residential greenness and mortality in individuals with CHD.
Assessed the influence of built environment characteristics, such as walkability, on health outcomes.
Higher levels of residential greenness correlate with improved survival rates in CHD individuals.
Walkability is shown to modify the health benefits derived from greenness.
Abstract
Residential greenness is associated with better survival among individuals with CHD. Variation by walkability suggests that built environment characteristics may modify greenness-related health benefits.
