Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Childhood and Adulthood and Cardiovascular Disease in Middle Age Open
Importance Recent evidence suggests that childhood levels of serum lipids, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), and smoking contribute to adult risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Evidence is lacking on whether this is independent of a…
