Detecting arterial plaque early: already common in young adults
A new study of almost 17,000 adults without symptoms found arterial plaque in (men / women):
- Age 18–29: 8.7% / 6.7%
- Age 30–39: 34.6% / 21.3%
- Age 40–49: 66% / 48%
That is why an early heart check-up matters, so that potential risks can be addressed in time.
