Two observational cohorts of 4,526 and 5,114 adults linked clinical estimates of faster biological aging to higher odds of the heart valve condition.Two observational cohorts of 4,526 and 5,114 adults linked clinical estimates of faster biological aging to higher odds of the heart valve condition.
What changedFaster biological aging was linked to higher odds of aortic valve narrowing in RED-CARPET (odds ratio 1.29 per standard-deviation increase)
The catchValve narrowing could precede accelerated aging; the abstract does not report measurement timing
