Background and aims: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with high mortality globally and remains a public health burden. We sought to investigate the relation between the American Heart Association’s cardiovascular health metrics (CVH) and the risk of AMI among middle-aged Finnish men.
Methods: We used the ongoing population-based Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease cohort study comprising men aged 40 to 62 years at baseline. The CVH metrics was computed among 2584 participants at baseline with health scores ranging from 0 to 7. This was categorized into three groups of CVH metrics as poor (0-2), intermediate (3-4) and ideal (≥5). Multivariate Cox regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of CVH metrics for AMI.
Results: During a median follow-up period of 25.2 years, 513 cases of AMI were recorded. Only one participant was able to achieve all the seven ideal health metrics. The risk of AMI decreased continuously with increasing number of CVH metrics across the range 2-7 (for non-linearity, p=0.07). Men with ideal CVH metrics had a HR (95% CI) for AMI of 0.28 (CI 0.15 – 0.55, p<0.001) compared to those with poor CVH metrics after adjustment for age, alcohol intake and socioeconomic status.The associations remained consistent following further adjustment for history of coronary heart disease and history of type 2 diabetes.
Conclusions: Ideal CVH metrics was strongly and linearly associated with reduced risk of AMI among middle-aged Finnish men.

Association between ideal cardiovascular health and risk of sudden cardiac death and all-cause mortality among middle-aged men in Finland
Isiozor, Nzechukwu M.; Kunutsor, Setor K.; Voutilainen, Ari; Kurl, Sudhir; Kauhanen, Jussi; Laukkanen, Jari A. (Sage Publications, 2021)Background Strong associations have been demonstrated between the American Heart Association’s cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics and various cardiovascular outcomes, but the association with sudden cardiac death (SCD) ... -

Basal Endogenous Steroid Hormones, Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin, Physical Fitness, and Health Risk Factors in Young Adult Men
Gagnon, Sheila S.; Nindl, Bradley C.; Vaara, Jani; Santtila, Matti; Häkkinen, Keijo; Kyröläinen, Heikki (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018)Purpose: Few large-scale population-based studies have adequately examined the relationships between steroid hormones, health status and physical fitness. The purpose of the study was to describe the relationship of serum ... -
Associations of polygenic inheritance of physical activity with aerobic fitness, cardiometabolic risk factors and diseases : the HUNT study
Tynkkynen, Niko Paavo; Törmäkangas, Timo; Palviainen, Teemu; Hyvärinen, Matti; Klevjer, Marie; Joensuu, Laura; Kujala, Urho; Kaprio, Jaakko; Bye, Anja; Sillanpää, Elina (Springer, 2023)Physical activity (PA), aerobic fitness, and cardiometabolic diseases (CMD) are highly heritable multifactorial phenotypes. Shared genetic factors may underlie the associations between higher levels of PA and better aerobic ... -
Joint effect of blood pressure and C-reactive protein and the risk of sudden cardiac death : a prospective cohort study
Kurl, Sudhir; Jae, Sae Y.; Voutilainen, Ari; Mäkikallio, Timo; Laukkanen, Jari A. (Elsevier, 2021)Background Both blood pressure and C-reactive protein (CRP) are each independently related to mortality risk. However, the combined effect of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and CRP on sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk has ...
