Abstract

Socioeconomic position is strongly associated with cardiovascular health. However, little is known about the short-term health impacts of socioeconomic exposures during early adulthood. In this study we describe socioeconomic trajectories of early adulthood (age 16-24y), and assess associations of these trajectories with cardiometabolic health at age 24y.
