Comparative Discrimination of Life’s Simple 7, Life’s Essential 8, and Life’s Crucial 9: Evaluating the impact of added complexity on mortality prediction
LS7, LE8, and LC9 all predict mortality effectively. Given its simpler scoring and fewer components, LS7 demonstrates comparable predictive performance to LE8 and LC9, making it a more practical tool for clinical and public health applications.
