Heart health screenings, including blood pressure, fasting blood glucose (FBG), and blood cholesterol screenings, can help identify cardiovascular disease risk. Evidence on heart health screenings among diverse immigrant groups is still limited. This study examined the disparities in heart health screenings among the immigrant population compared with US\u2010born White adults.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods and Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">A cross\u2010sectional design was used to analyze data from the 2011 to 2018 National Health Interview Survey. Generalized linear models with Poisson distribution were applied to compare the prevalence of annual blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, and blood cholesterol screenings among Latino, Black, and Asian immigrants and US\u2010born White adults. The analysis included 145\u2009149 adults (83.60% US\u2010born White adults, 9.55% Latino immigrants, 1.89% Black immigrants, and 4.96% Asian immigrants), with a mean age of 50\u2009years and 53.62% women. Latino (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.92 [95% CI, 0.91\u20130.93]) and Asian (aOR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.92\u20130.94]) immigrants were less likely to have blood pressure screening than US\u2010born White adults. Latino (aOR, 1.22 [95% CI, 1.19\u20131.25]), Black (aOR, 1.15 [95% CI, 1.09\u20131.21]), and Asian (aOR, 1.12 [95% CI, 1.08\u20131.15]) immigrants were more likely to have fasting blood glucose screening, and Latino (aOR, 1.11 [95% CI, 1.09\u20131.13]), Black or (aOR, 1.12 [95% CI, 1.09\u20131.16]), and Asian (aOR, 1.05 [95% CI, 1.04\u20131.07]) immigrants were more likely to have blood cholesterol screening than US\u2010born White adults.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">Latino and Asian immigrants have lower odds of annual blood pressure screenings than US\u2010born White adults.
