Key result
Higher emotional vitality (per 1 SD increase) was associated with a lower risk of incident stroke over a mean of 16.29 years (HR 0.89; 95% CI 0.81-0.99).
Why the study?
Does higher emotional vitality reduce the risk of incident stroke in a representative U.S. population?
Cohort (n=6,019)
Yes
Does higher emotional vitality reduce the risk of incident stroke in a representative U.S. population?
Higher emotional vitality is independently associated with a modestly lower risk of incident stroke over long-term follow-up, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors and psychological distress.
Emotional vitality associated with lower stroke risk; hypothesis-generating, needs trials before clinical consideration.

Lambiase et al. (2015) conducted a cohort in Incident stroke (n=6,019). Higher emotional vitality (per 1 SD increase) vs. Lower emotional vitality was evaluated on Incident stroke (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.81-0.99). Higher emotional vitality (per 1 SD increase) was associated with a lower risk of incident stroke over a mean of 16.29 years (HR 0.89; 95% CI 0.81-0.99).
