Is the Endothelial activation and stress index (EASIX) associated with cardiovascular disease prevalence in American adults?
EASIX may serve as an effective metric for identifying populations at early risk of cardiovascular disease.
An elevated EASIX is associated with a greater prevalence of CVD in American adults. EASIX exhibited better performance in evaluating the associations compared to other individual indices. It is expected that EASIX can become a more effective metric for identifying populations at an early risk of CVD.
Liu et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
