A precision medicine approach to sex-based differences in ideal cardiovascular health

Abstract Cardiovascular disease risk factor profiles and health behaviors are known to differ between women and men. Sex-based differences in ideal cardiovascular health were examined in the My Research Legacy study, which collected cardiovascular health and lifestyle data via Life’s Simple 7 survey...

A precision medicine approach to sex-based differences in ideal cardiovascular health
description Abstract Cardiovascular disease risk factor profiles and health behaviors are known to differ between women and men. Sex-based differences in ideal cardiovascular health were examined in the My Research Legacy study, which collected cardiovascular health and lifestyle data via Life’s Simple 7 survey and digital health devices.

We identified 2 phenogroups of women in our study cohort by cluster analysis.
