The cardiovascular health (CVH) score is constructed based on the overall LE8 score, providing a more direct measure of CVH and its potential relationship with cancer risk.  \nMethods This cohort enrolled participants from a prospective cohort of the United Kingdom Biobank, including individuals aged 37–73 years, with 332,417 cancer-free participants. CVH scores were assessed using the LE8 metrics. The primary outcome of this study was the risk of cancer events, and the secondary outcome was cancer mortality. Competitive models were used to examine the associations between each 10-point increment in the CVH score and the outcomes, with stratified analyses conducted for both men and women to assess sex differences.  \nResults The mean CVH score was 64 .4(55 . 6,72 . 5) in men and 70.0 (61 . 2,78 . 1) in women (P \u003C 0. 001) . During a mean follow-up time of 12.0 years, 12. 32%(95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.21–12.43%) of participants developed cancer, and 2 . 13%(95% CI: 2 .08–2. 18%) died from cancer. A 10-point rise in CVH score was negatively associated with overall cancer occurrence in men (hazard ratio [HR]: 0 . 97, 95% CI: 0 .96–0. 98) and women (HR: 0 . 96, 95% CI: 0 .95–0. 97), along with reduced cancer mortality risk in both sexes. Moreover, sex differences were observed in the impact of a 10-point CVH increase on esophageal, gastric, colorectal, and liver cancers.  \nConclusions Lower CVH scores were associated with an increased overall cancer risk and higher cancer-related mortality, highlighting the need for cancer screening in patients with low CVH scores.  \nKeywords Life’s essential 8, Cardiovascular health (CVH), Cancer occurrence, Mortality, UK biobank  \n*Correspondence:  \nRené Thieme  \n[rene.thieme@medizin.uni-leipzig.de](rene.thieme@medizin.uni-leipzig.de)  \n1Department of Visceral, Transplant, Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, University Hospital Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany  \n2Medical Faculty, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany 3Department of Oncology, Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Pulmonology, University Hospital Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany 4Institute of Biostatistics and Clinical Research, University of Muenster, Muenster, Germany  \n© The Author(s) 2025.
