The association of handgrip strength with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database prospective cohort study with propensity score matching.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the association between handgrip strength (HGS) with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in US adults.

Method

We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) prospective cohort study (2011-2014) with 10,470 participants. The cox regression analysis, Kaplan-Meier survival curves, fitted curves, ROC curves, and propensity score-matched analysis (PSM) with inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW), SMRW (PSM with repeated weights), PA (pairwise algorithm), and OW (overlap weighting) regression analysis were performed to assess the relationship between HGS and all-cause and CVD mortality.

Results

The low HGSs (men <37.4 kg, women <24 kg), was found to be associated with higher all-cause
