Association between life’s crucial 9 and stroke: results from the NHANES 2005–2018
Our findings indicated that higher LC9 scores were associated with a reduced likelihood of stroke. Preserving a favorable LC9 score may serve as a potential strategy for stroke prevention. To substantiate these observations and establish clinically applicable LC9 thresholds, additional large-scale prospective studies with prolonged follow-up are needed.
