The association between life’s crucial 9 and all-cause, cancer-specific and cardiovascular mortality in US cancer survivors: a cohort study of NHANES

Among cancer survivors in the United States, higher LC9 scores were independently associated with lower risks of all-cause, cancer-specific, and cardiovascular mortality. This finding highlights the potential link between cardiovascular health and survival outcomes in cancer survivors, suggesting that improving cardiovascular health may serve as an important preventive strategy to enhance survival rates in this population.
