Why the study?
Does longitudinal exposure to cardiovascular risk factors from childhood to midlife increase the risk of vascular aging in midlife?
Does longitudinal exposure to cardiovascular risk factors from childhood to midlife increase the risk of vascular aging in midlife?
Longitudinal exposure to cardiovascular risk factors from childhood increases the risk of vascular aging by midlife, supporting early intervention strategies to prevent cardiovascular disease.
Supports early risk factor monitoring from childhood; hypothesis-generating for vascular aging prevention, needing prospective confirmation.
Longitudinal exposure to individual cardiovascular risk factors from childhood to midlife and cardiovascular risk factor accumulation were associated with an increased risk of vascular aging in midlife. Our study lends support for early targeting of risk factors in order to prevent cardiovascular disease later in life.
