Life's Essential 8: Higher cardiovascular health scores linked to reduced mortality risks

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the most significant causes of global mortality. Several factors, such as obesity, poor diet, lack of physical activity, dyslipidemia, smoking, diabetes, and high blood pressure, have been identified to enhance the risk of CVD events. In 2010, the American Heart Association (AHA) constructed Life’s Simple 7, which included seven lifestyle-based goals that could help achieve ideal cardiovascular health (CVH).

Vaping in Australia: Study explores e-cigarette exposure and calls for stronger control measures

A new study, forthcoming in the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, studied the e-cigarette use and attitudes to vaping in a sample of Australians between the ages of 15 and 30. The key aim of the study was to provide novel insights to minimize the harm caused by e-cigarettes to young people.

Birth weight and maternal BMI modify the relationship between obesity and mortality rate

Obesity is a significant risk factor for premature mortality due to the predisposition to metabolic and cardiovascular disease. However, is this effect independent of the birth weight? A new research paper examines this aspect of adult obesity, measuring the effect of parental body mass index (BMI) and birth weight on the mortality risk.

Study investigates vitamin C's effectiveness in treating gout and hyperuricemia

Scientists at the University of Minnesota, USA, have initiated a study entitled “the Hmong Microbiome and Gout, Obesity, Vitamin C (HMANGO-C) study” to determine the effect of vitamin C supplementation on serum urate levels in Hmong adults with or without gout. Hmong (pronounced mung) is a racial group originally from the Southwest of China.

Australian study finds Mediterranean diet meets nutrient requirements and cheaper than traditional Western diets

A recent study by researchers at the University of South Australia has indicated that the majority of Australians are not eating a balanced healthy diet as recommended by the Australian Dietary Guidelines (ADG) and Australian Guide to Healthy Eating (AGHE). A proper diet is essential because it can alleviate the risks of developing chronic diseases like type two diabetes, osteoporosis, heart disease, and obesity.
