Ideal cardiovascular health and cardiovascular-related events: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Prev Cardiol 2024; 31:966-985. [PMID: 38149986 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwad405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to systematically review and quantitatively summarize the evidence on the association between Life Simple's 7 (LS7) and multiple cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs). METHODS AND RESULTS EMBASE and PubMed were searched from January 2010 to March 2022 for observational studies that investigated the association between ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) with CVD or CMD outcomes in an adult population. Two reviewers independently selected studies according to the eligibility criteria, extracted data, and evaluated risk of bias. Data were analysed with a random-effects meta-analysis. This meta-analysis included 59 studies (1 881 382 participants). Participants with ideal CVH had a considerably lower risk of a variety of CVDs and CMDs as compared with those with poor CVH, varying from 40% lower risk for atrial fibrillation (AF) {hazard ratio [HR] = 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44-0.83]} to 82% lower risk for myocardial infarction [HR = 0.18 (95% CI 0.12-0.28)]. Intermediate CVH was associated with 27-57% lower risk in CVDs and CMDs compared with poor CVH, with the highest hazard for AF [HR = 0.73 (95% CI 0.59-0.91)] and the lowest hazard for peripheral arterial disease [HR = 0.43 (95% CI 0.30-0.60)]. CONCLUSION Ideal and moderate CVH were associated with a lower incidence of CVDs and CMDs than poor CVH. Life Simple's 7 holds significant potential for promoting overall CVH and thereby contributing to the prevention of CVDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maintaining ideal cardiovascular health scores (CHS) may indirectly contribute to reducing the risk of perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI), which has never been explored previously. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between CHS and AKI and provide new ideas for AKI prevention and treatment. METHODS We examined the effects of CHS on the occurrence of AKI among 2783 participants from the Kailuan study, who received general anesthesia during noncardiac surgery from 2016 to 2020. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for AKI were calculated by using the logistic regression. RESULTS Among 2783 participants 187 were diagnosed with perioperative AKI. We found an inverse relationship between the CHS scores and the risk of AKI. Participants with CHS score ≥ 10 had 57% decreased risk of AKI (OR = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.23, 0.79), compared with participants with CHS score ≤ 7, especially in men (OR = 0.39, 95% CI: 0.20, 0.76). In addition, participants who never smoked, exercised frequently, and had normal blood pressure had decreased risk of AKI, with corresponding ORs (95% CIs) of 0.66 (0.47, 0.91), 0.73 (0.60, 0.92), and 0.46 (0.28, 0.75), respectively. CONCLUSIONS CHS was strongly associated with the risk of perioperative AKI, and higher CHS scores were associated with a lower risk of AKI. Further research is needed to explore the long-term effects of achieving and maintaining an ideal CHS on AKI risk.

Life's Essential 8 is associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease but not venous thromboembolism in men: a prospective cohort study. Ann Med 2023; 55:2233894. [PMID: 37459575 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2023.2233894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) shares several risk factors with venous thromboembolism (VTE). The American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7), which included seven health and behavioural factors for CVD prevention, has recently been upgraded to Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score. We aimed to examine the prospective association between LE8 and the risks of ASCVD and VTE in Finland.Methods: We utilized data based on 1899 men aged 42-61 years in the Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease (KIHD) prospective study. The LE8 score was generated from baselines measures of four health behaviours (physical activity, diet, nicotine exposure and sleep health) and four health factors (BMI, blood lipids, blood glucose and blood pressure). Each factor was scored from 0 to 100 and summed into a composite score. Participants were classified into quartiles (Q) based on the total LE8 score - Q1, ≤ 420; Q2, >420 to 485; Q3, >485 to 550; Q4, >550. Multivariable Cox regression models were utilized to determine the hazard ratios (HRs) along with the 95% confidence intervals (CI) for ASCVD and VTE.Results: After median follow-up durations of 24 and 25 years, 889 ASCVD and 127 VTE events were recorded, respectively. The risk of ASCVD was found to be 58% lower in men belonging to the highest LE8 quartile compared to those in the lowest quartile (HR:0.42; 95%CI: 0.34-0.51). There was no significant evidence of an association between LE8 and VTE risk (Q4 vs Q1, HR:1.02; 95%CI: 0.60-1.74).Conclusion: The risk of ASCVD was significantly lower in middle-aged and older Finnish men who had a high LE8 score, but there was no significant association with VTE. Further large-scale prospective studies conducted in women and other population groups are necessary to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The protective effect of a higher ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) score on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and mortality is well recognized. However, little is known regarding the length of favorable CVH status associated with CVDs and mortality. This study aimed to examined whether the duration of better (ideal or intermediate) CVH is associated with risk of developing CVDs and mortality. METHODS This prospective cohort study used data from 83,536 individuals from 2006 to 2020 who were enrolled in the Kailuan Study. The CVH scores of individuals were assessed at visits 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The years spent in better CVH were estimated for each individual as the number of examination cycles (0-4) in which the participant was in that CVH score ≥ 8 multiplied by 2 (the mean year interval of each visit). The primary outcomes are CVD events and all-cause mortality. RESULTS After a median follow-up period of 7.48 years, 5486 (7.07%) cases of incident CVD events and 7669 (9.18%) deaths occurred. Compared with participants in " ≤ 4 years" group, those who maintained for > 4 years had less likely to develop adverse outcomes (CVD events: hazard ratio (HR): 0.60, 95% confidence interval (CI 0.56-0.63; all-cause mortality: HR: 0.77, 95% CI 0.74-0.81). The number of years spent in better CVH was nonlinearly correlated with CVD events or mortality (all Ps for nonlinear < 0.05). The results indicated that maintaining more than 6 years in a better CVH status was associated with a decreased risk of CVD events or mortality. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that individuals maintaining more than 6 years in better CVH could increase cardiometabolic benefits and a lower risk of all-cause mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We examined the association between menopause symptoms and the prevalence of ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics among premenopausal women. METHODS This cross-sectional study comprised 4,611 premenopausal women aged 42 to 52 years. Data for CVH metrics were collected during health screening examinations. Menopause symptoms were measured using the Korean version of the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life questionnaire. For vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, and sexual symptoms, participants were divided into absent or symptomatic groups, further divided into tertiles (range, 0-7; 7 being the most bothersome). Ideal CVH metrics were defined according to the American Heart Association Life Simple 7 metrics, except dietary component. Cardiovascular health metrics were scored from 0 (unhealthy) to 6 (healthy) and classified as poor (0-2), intermediate (3-4), and ideal (5-6). Multinomial logistic regression models were used to estimate the prevalence ratios for intermediate and poor CVH metrics using ideal CVH as the reference. RESULTS The overall and 4 menopause-specific quality of life domain scores were significantly associated with poorer CVH metrics scores in a dose-response manner ( P < 0.05). After adjusting for age, parity, education level, anti-Mullerian hormone levels, and alcohol intake, women with the most bothersome degree for vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, and sexual symptoms had significantly higher prevalence of poor CVH metrics, with corresponding prevalence ratios (95% confidence interval) of 2.90 (1.95-4.31), 2.07 (1.36-3.15), 3.01 (1.19-7.65), and 1.66 (1.15-2.39), respectively, compared with those without each vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, and sexual symptom. CONCLUSIONS Premenopausal stage women with either vasomotor or nonvasomotor menopausal symptoms have significantly higher prevalence of poor CVH metrics, compared with those without any menopausal symptoms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, hence significant efforts have been made to establish behavior and risk factors associated with CVD. The American Heart Association proposed a 7-metric tool to promote ideal cardiovascular health (CVH). Recent data demonstrated that a higher number of ideal CVH metrics was associated with a lower risk of CVD, stroke, and mortality. Our study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies investigating the association of ideal CVH metrics and CVD, stroke, and cardiovascular mortality (CVM) in the general population. Medline and Scopus databases were searched from January 2010 to June 2022 for prospective studies reporting CVH metrics and outcomes on composite-CVD, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, and CVM. Each CVH metrics group was compared to another. Twenty-two studies totaling 3,240,660 adults (57.8% men) were analyzed. The follow-up duration was 12.0 ± 7.2 years. Our analysis confirmed that a higher number of ideal CVH metrics led to lower risk for CVD and CVM (statistically significant for composite-CVD, stroke, and CVM; p < 0.05). Conclusion: Even modest improvements in CVH are associated with CV-morbidity and mortality benefits, providing a strong public health message about the importance of a healthier lifestyle.

Abstract
Objectives Whether cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics impact longevity with and without cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has not been well established. This study aimed to investigate the association between CVH metrics and life expectancy in participants free of CVD events. We hypothesized that ideal CVH status was associated with increased life expectancy and assessed the effect of CVH status as a prevention target of longevity in the framework of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM). Methods A total of 92,795 participants in the Kailuan study were examined and thereafter followed up until 2020. We considered three transitions (from non-CVD events to incident CVD events, from non-CVD events to mortality, and from CVD events to mortality). The multistate lifetable method was applied to estimate the life expectancy. Results During a median follow-up of 13 years, 12,541 (13.51%) deaths occurred. Compared with poor CVH, ideal CVH attenuated the risk of incident CVD events and mortality without CVD events by approximately 58% and 27%, respectively. Women with ideal CVH at age 35 had a 5.00 (3.23-6.77) year longer life expectancy free of CVD events than did women with poor CVH metrics. Among men, ideal CVH was associated with a 6.74 (5.55-7.93) year longer life expectancy free of CVD events. Conclusion An ideal CVH status is associated with a lower risk of premature mortality and a longer life expectancy, either in the general population or in CVD patients, which are cost-effective ways for personalized medicine of potential CVD patients. Our findings suggest that the promotion of a higher CVH score or ideal CVH status would result in reduced burdens of CVD events and extended disease-free life expectancy, which offered an accurate prediction for primary care following the concept of PPPM/3PM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between changes in cardiovascular health score (CHS) over time and myocardial infarction (MI) risk in hypertensive patients remains unclear. METHOD This was a prospective study comprising 17 374 hypertensive patients from the Kailuan study cohort who underwent 3 surveys and were identified to be free of MI, stroke, or cancer from 2006 to 2010. CHS consisted of 7 cardiovascular health metrics (plasma glucose, total cholesterol, blood pressure, smoking, body mass index, physical activity, salt intake), ranging from 0 (worst) to 13 (best) in the study. CHS trajectories were developed during 2006 to 2010 to predict the MI risk from 2010 to 2020. Additionally, the Cox proportional hazard model was established to calculate the hazard ratio and 95% CI of incident MI in different trajectory groups. RESULT This study identified the 5 CHS trajectories from 2006 to 2010: low-stable (n=1161; range, 4.7-4.5), moderate-decreasing (n=3928; decreased from 6.9 to 6.0), moderate-increasing (n=1014; increased from 5.6 to 7.8), high-stable I (n=7940; range, 8.1-8.2), and high-stable II (n=3331; range, 9.2-9.7). During the median follow-up of 10.04 years, 288 incident MI cases were identified. After adjusting for potential confounders, compared with low-stable group, the hazard ratio and 95% CI of MI were 0.24 (0.15-0.40) for high-stable II, 0.36 (0.24-0.54) for high-stable I, 0.46 (0.25-0.83) for moderate-increasing, and 0.61 (0.41-0.90) for moderate-decreasing, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In hypertensive patients, high-stable CHS or improvement in CHS is associated with a lower risk of incident MI, when compared with low-stable CHS trajectory over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between ideal cardiovascular health (ICVH) status and atrial fibrillation or flutter (AFF) diagnosis has been less studied compared to other cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE To analyze the association between AFF diagnosis and ICVH metrics and scores in the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). METHODS This study analyzed data from 13,141 participants with complete data. Electrocardiographic tracings were coded according to the Minnesota Coding System, in a centralized reading center. ICVH metrics (diet, physical activity, body mass index, smoking, blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, and total cholesterol) and scores were calculated as proposed by the American Heart Association. Crude and adjusted binary logistic regression models were built to analyze the association of ICVH metrics and scores with AFF diagnosis. Significance level was set at 0.05. RESULTS The sample had a median age of 55 years and 54.4% were women. In adjusted models, ICVH scores were not significantly associated with prevalent AFF diagnosis (odds ratio [OR]:0.96; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]:0.80-1.16; p=0.70). Ideal blood pressure (OR:0.33; 95% CI:0.15-0.74; p=0.007) and total cholesterol (OR:1.88; 95% CI:1.19-2.98; p=0.007) profiles were significantly associated with AFF diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS No significant associations were identified between global ICVH scores and AFF diagnosis after multivariable adjustment in our analyses, at least partially due to the antagonistic associations of AFF with blood pressure and total cholesterol ICVH metrics. Our results suggest that estimating the prevention of AFF burden using global ICVH scores may not be adequate, and ICVH metrics should be considered in separate.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo quantify the association between ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics and incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) including different subtypes [coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and sudden death], and all-cause mortality in an Iranian population.MethodsThe study population included 6,388 participants (2,726 men) aged 48.0 ± 12.4 years free of CVD at baseline. We utilized the American Heart Association’s 2020 impact target criteria of ideal, intermediate, and poor CVH. The multivariate Cox proportional Hazard model, adjusted for age, sex, educational level, marital status, and family history of CVD, was applied to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) of outcomes per one additional metric of ideal CVH metrics. Furthermore, the risk was also calculated for ideal and intermediate categories considering poor category as a reference.ResultsDuring the median follow-up of 11.26 years, 692 CVD, 589 CHD, 130 stroke, 111 sudden death, and 519 all-cause mortality events were reported. All of the individual ideal CVH metrics were independent predictors except intermediate physical activity level for CVD, BMI < 25 kg/m2, and intermediate physical activity for all-cause mortality. Each additional metrics of ideal CVH decreased the risk by 31 (0.69, 0.65–0.73) for CVD, 32 (0.68, 0.64–0.73) for CHD, 31 (0.69, 0.60–0.80) for stroke, 25 (0.75, 0.64–0.88) for sudden death, and 13% (0.87, 0.81–0.93) for all-cause mortality events. Moreover, intermediate and ideal categories of CVH metrics were associated with lower risk for different CVD outcomes, i.e., 44 (0.56, 0.48–0.65) and 76% (0.24, 0.17–0.35) for CVD; 43 (0.57, 0.47–0.67) and 75% (0.25, 0.16–0.37) for CHD, 58 (0.42, 0.29–0.61) and 86% (0.14, 0.04–0.44) for stroke; 56 (0.44, 0.29–0.66) and 55% (0.45, 0.21–0.99) for sudden death; and 25 (0.75, 0.62–0.90) and 46% (0.54, 0.37–0.80) for all-cause mortality events, respectively. We also assessed the impact of changes in ideal CVH status from phase III to phase IV (2008–2011) on CVD events among 5,666 participants. Accordingly, compared to those remaining in the poor category, all of the changes in ideal CVH categories showed a lower risk for CVD events.ConclusionAmong the Iranian population, meeting higher ideal CVH metrics is associated with a lower risk of different CVD events and mortality outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Population-wide preventive measures constitute important approaches towards reducing stroke risk and its associated burden. We sought to examine the association between American Heart Association's (AHA) Life's Simple7 (LS7) score and the risk of stroke in men. METHODS The study is based on the prospective population-based Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease cohort comprising men (42-60 years) without pre-existing history of stroke at baseline (1984-1989). LS7 was computed from AHA's cardiovascular health metrics for 2520 men and includes data on diet, physical activity, body mass index, smoking status, blood pressures, total cholesterol and blood glucose. Participants were classified into three LS7 groups based on the number of ideal metrics: low (0-2), medium (3-4) and high (5-7). Multivariable Cox regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of LS7 scores for total and ischaemic stroke. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 26 years, 428 total and 362 ischaemic incident stroke events were recorded. The risk of both stroke outcomes decreased continuously with increasing LS7 scores across the range 2-6. Men with high LS7 had 48% (HR: 0.52; 95%CI: 0.32-0.86) lower risk of total stroke when compared with those with low LS7. The association was similar for the risk of ischaemic stroke, with 50% (HR: 0.50; 95%CI: 0.29-0.87) lower risk among men with high LS7 compared with those with low LS7. CONCLUSION LS7 was strongly, inversely and linearly associated with risk of total and ischaemic strokes among a middle-aged male Finnish population.

Abstract
Background Cardiovascular health (CVH) status is associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, evidence for association of CVH change with risk of CVD is scarce. Methods and Results Seven metrics (smoking status, body mass index, physical activity, diet, total cholesterol, blood pressure, and fasting blood glucose) were used to evaluate the CVH status. Having 0 to 2, 3 to 4, and 5 to 7 ideal cardiovascular metrics were categorized as low, moderate, and high CVH status, respectively. Change in CVH status was assessed from 2006/2007 to 2010/2011. We calculated lifetime risk of CVD using a modified Kaplan–Meier method, and life expectancy was evaluated via the multistate lifetable method. There were 82 349 participants included in our analysis. At 35 years index age, the age‐adjusted incident rate and lifetime risk of CVD were increased with decreasing number of ideal CVH metrics. The direction of change in status of CVH was consistently associated with age‐adjusted incident rate and lifetime risk of CVD. At 35 years index age, improvement from low to moderate (37.6% [95% CI, 32.8%–42.4%]) or to high status (24.4% [95% CI, 12.7%–36.0%]) had lower lifetime risk of CVD compared with consistently low status (44.6% [95% CI, 40.8%–48.5%]). The improvement in CVH could prolong the years of life free from CVD. The pattern of incident rate and lifetime risk across change in CVH status was similar at 45 and 55 years index age. Conclusions Higher number of CVH metrics was associated with lower lifetime risk of CVD. The improvement of CVH status could reduce the lifetime risk of CVD and prolonged the year of life free from CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Strong associations have been demonstrated between the American Heart Association's cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics and various cardiovascular outcomes, but the association with sudden cardiac death (SCD) is uncertain. We examined the associations between these CVH metrics and the risks of SCD and all-cause mortality among men in Finland. METHODS AND RESULTS We used the prospective population-based Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease cohort study, which consists of men between 42 and 60 years of age at baseline. CVH metrics were computed for 2577 men with CVH scores at baseline ranging from 0 to 7, categorized into CVH scores of 0-2 (poor), 3-4 (intermediate) and 5-7 (ideal). Multivariate Cox regression models were used to estimate the hazards ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of ideal CVH metrics for SCD and all-cause mortality. During a median follow-up period of 25.8 years, 280 SCDs and 1289 all-cause mortality events were recorded. The risks of SCD and all-cause mortality decreased continuously with increasing number of CVH metrics across the range 2-7 (p value for non-linearity for all <0.05). In multivariable analyses, men with an ideal CVH score had an 85% reduced risk of SCD compared with men with a poor CVH score (HR 0.15; 95% CI 0.05-0.48; p = 0.001). For all-cause mortality, there was a 67% lower risk among men with an ideal CVH score compared with those with a poor CVH score (HR 0.33; 95% CI 0.23-0.49; p <0.001). CONCLUSIONS Ideal CVH metrics were strongly and linearly associated with decreased risks of SCD and all-cause mortality among middle-aged men in Finland.
