Depending on the participants’ statistics against these parameters, they were classified as inadequate, average or optimum. Experts also compared the incidence of blood clots in the three groups.
The results showed that people with optimum heart health had a 44% reduced risk of blood clots as compared to people with inadequate heart health. Those with average heart health had a 38% lowered risk. The researchers discovered that risk of cases of Venus thrombosis (VT) was high among older males. The incidence rates for VT, based on the baseline summary LS7 score categories is 1.8 per 1,000 person years for optimum, 2.1 for average, and 3.1 for inadequate health.
The researchers also said that the crucial factor in reducing the risk of blood clots were maintaining ideal levels of physical activity and body-mass index.
