Association between "Life's Essential 8" cardiovascular health and apparent treatment-resistant hypertension among US adults from the NHANES, 2005 to 2018.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The association between healthy lifestyle and American Heart Association (AHA) Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score and apparent treatment-resistant hypertension(aTRH)remains uncertain. We aimed to explore the association between healthy lifestyle and higher LE8 score and apparent treatment-resistant hypertension in the general population.

Methods

Using NHANES data from 2005 to 2018, we included and analyzed information on 7,474 participants eligible for this study. The association between LE8 and aTRH was explored using logistic regression models, and the association between LE8 and antihypertension drugs uncontrolled hypertension was further explored using logistic regression models.

Results

Participants with higher LE8 scores tended to be non-Hispanic white an
