Association of Early and Supernormal Vascular Aging categories with cardiovascular disease in the Chinese population

ABSTRACT:

Background

Early Vascular Aging and Supernormal Vascular Aging are two extreme phenotypes of vascular aging, and people in the two categories demonstrate distinct clinical characteristics and cardiovascular prognosis. However, the clinical implication of vascular aging categories in the Asian or Chinese population has not been investigated. We aimed to investigate the association between vascular aging categories and cardiovascular events in a Chinese cohort.

Methods

We explored the association of vascular aging categories with incident cardiovascular disease in a community cohort in Shanghai, China, which included 10,375 participants following up for 4.5 years. Vascular age was predicted by a multivariable linear regression model including classical risk factors and brac
