Abstract P1058: Parental Stress and Depression on Child Cardiovascular Health: The Young Hearts Study
Background: The association of parental stress and depression with child behavioral cardiovascular health (bCVH) has received limited attention in the literature....
Abstract MP40: Title: Investigating the link between hypoglycemia assessed by continuous glucose monitoring with cerebral small vessel disease
Introduction: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is a minimally invasive technology that can assess glucose levels every few minutes, allowing for the characterization of nuanced glucose...
Abstract 018: Nocturnal Wakefulness and Eating Behavior Among Young Adults
Introduction: Chronic sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment are associated with cardiometabolic dysfunction, but few have studied the effects of nocturnal wakefulness-induced cognit...
Abstract P1073: Optimizing Blood Pressure Control Strategies with Real-Time Data in Community Health Centers
Introduction: Blood pressure (BP) control in the United States among persons with hypertension (HTN) is less than 50%. Performance and quality measures to improve care and outcomes for pat...
Abstract P2147: Descriptive Analysis of the Reinforcing Essentials of Sleep for Teens Program: Findings from a Pilot Study
Introduction: Sleep duration is a metric of cardiovascular health included in AHA’s Life’s Essential 8. Half of adolescents sleep less than the recommended 8 hours on school nights; youth...
Abstract P1125: Targeted Health Coaching Intervention to Improve Physical Activity and Physical Function Post-Structured Cardiac Rehabilitation Programming Among Older Adults: A Pilot Study
Introduction: Attending cardiac rehabilitation (CR) improves fitness and quality of life and decreases the risk of future death from heart disease. Unfortunately, once an individual finish...
Abstract P2155: Food Insecurity and Sleep Duration among Hypertensive Patients in Jamaica
Introduction: Emerging evidence suggests food insecurity (FI) is associated with adverse sleep outcomes. The American Heart Association recommends 7-9 hours of sleep each night to reduce r...
Abstract P1019: Patient Values and Anticoagulant Decisions in Atrial Fibrillation: a Secondary Analysis of the RED-AF Shared Decision-Making Trial
Background: Deciding to use oral anticoagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is complex. For many, the decision between treatment and non-treatmen...
Abstract P3042: Trends and Disparities in Self-Reported Health Among US Adults with Diabetes: NHANES 2001-2018
Introduction: Self-reported health is an indicator of overall well-being, encompassing physical, mental, and social health. It predicts future morbidity and mortality. Among individuals wi...
Abstract P2118: Marital status is associated with meeting the aerobic physical activity guideline in Latino men
Introduction: Latino men are more likely to report never participating in aerobic and muscle-strengthening physical activity compared to non-Latino white men. Previous research suggests th...
Abstract P1113: Periconceptional DASH Diet and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes:
Background: A DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is associated with improved cardiovascular health (CVH) outcomes in non-pregnant individuals, but its association with CVH...
Abstract P1011: Home Blood Pressure Monitoring and Risk of Falls in Older Adults with Hypertension: the AMBROSIA-HOME Cohort Study
Background: Over-intensification of antihypertensive medication may lead to hypotension and excessive blood pressure (BP) variability and thus increase the risk for falls, a major cause of...
Abstract P2076: Association of High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, Apolipoprotein E and A1 Concentrations With Fetal Growth, Maturation, and Placental Insufficiency
Introduction: Cholesterol is important for fetal growth and is in fetal life mainly carried by high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol enriched with apolipoprotein E (apoE). The fetus i...
