28 Jan AHA: Childhood relationships, experiences may have good and bad effects on adult heart health
- Positive, warm relationships between caregiver and child were associated with higher odds of attaining ideal heart health at multiple points across a 20-year span of adulthood.
- Meanwhile, experiencing childhood adversity such as abuse was associated with a lower chance of reaching optimal cardiovascular health in adulthood.
- Lower annual income as an adult — $35,000 or less — may confound the health effects of childhood adversity.
