目的：心力衰竭（HF）由于其高发病率和死亡率而成为美国的主要公共卫生问题。诊断HF时的年龄将改善负担量化、预算、疾病监测和干预评估。我们着手确定中位年龄在诊断HF和司机的年轻年龄在诊断患者20岁或以上在USA.Methods和结果：我们利用NHANES数据收集在五个调查周期（2007-2016）。纳入诊断为HF且诊断时年龄有效的20 - 80岁个体。使用线性回归模型和p值评估各组之间诊断时的年龄差异和诊断时年龄较低的主要驱动因素
Aim: Heart failure (HF) constitutes a major public health problem in the USA due to its high morbidity and mortality. Age at diagnosis of HF would refine burden quantification, budgeting, disease surveillance and assessment of interventions. We set out to determine the median age at diagnosis of HF and drivers of young age at diagnosis among patients 20 years or older in the USA.Methods and results: We utilized NHANES data collected across five survey cycles (2007-2016). Included were individuals aged 20 to 80 years diagnosed of HF with valid entries for age at diagnosis. Differences in age at diagnosis between groups and major drivers for younger age at diagnosis were assessed using linear regression models with p-values
