Odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of ideal levels (≥80) of the Life's Essential 8 score and its components as the outcome of interest, with non-ideal levels (0–80) as reference, have been presented. US-born Asian-American individuals were taken as the reference population. Foreign-born Asian American individuals were stratified by the duration of stay in the US.
