Age, sex, and race‐adjusted prevalences are given as means and values in parentheses are 95% confidence intervals. The P value for trend is calculated from a logistic regression model with CVHS category as the primary exposure variable and adjusted for age, sex, race, and percentage attainment of each of the other health metrics. Logistic regression models used to calculate the OR associated with each CVHS category adjusted for age, sex, race, and percentage attainment of each of the other health metrics. AV indicates aortic valve; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; CVHS, cardiovascular health score; and OR, odds ratio.
