Young adults show early artery injury alongside CKM risk
Key Takeaways
- A study published August 20 found nearly eight in 10 participants with an average age of 23 had CKM syndrome.
- Researchers used CKM staging, Life’s Essential 8 scores, and carotid ultrasound imaging to assess risk and vessel health.
- Participants with more advanced CKM syndrome showed early signs of arterial injury.
- The findings support earlier cardiovascular monitoring and prevention efforts in adults younger than 30.
