Light to moderate alcohol consumption lowers cardiovascular risk through stress reduction

The beneficial effects of light/moderate alcohol consumption on cardiovascular disease risk may be due to its ability to attenuate stress.

'Concerning' CT findings may be an important barrier to discharge of low-risk pulmonary embolism patients

Of approximately 250,000 Americans diagnosed with acute pulmonary embolism, or PE, in emergency departments each year, most are hospitalized.

Routine testing may help to reduce health disparities for people with peripheral artery disease

Low-cost, routine testing may help to reduce disparities and health care costs for people with peripheral artery disease (PAD), according to a new scientific statement from the American Heart Association, published today in the Association's flagship peer-reviewed journal Circulation.

Chronic exposure to lead, cadmium and arsenic associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease

Chronic exposure to low levels of lead, cadmium and arsenic through commonly used household items, air, water, soil and food is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, according to a new American Heart Association scientific statement published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access, peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association.

New data challenge seeks to unravel how lipoprotein(a) levels impact risk of cardiovascular disease

The American Heart Association, the world's leading voluntary organization focused on heart and brain health, invites scientific researchers across the globe to compete in a new data challenge to better inform the scientific understanding of how lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels impact the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

Novel urban design metric links cardio-metabolic disease risk factors to the built environment

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of non-communicable disease burden and death. Population-level interventions targeting modifiable risk factors can reduce disease burden, by enabling people to make daily, healthy choices via long-term structural features.

Study may help advance data on oncolytic adenovirus mediated double suicide-gene therapy for high-grade brain tumors

Researchers in the Hermelin Brain Tumor Center at Henry Ford Health are leading a Phase I clinical trial studying the maximum tolerated dose of an oncolytic adenovirus, a mutated virus engineered to selectively replicate in and destroy cancer tissue, in combination with fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery among patients who are undergoing resection of a recurrent high-grade astrocytoma brain tumor.

Study: Only 50% of athletes can identify sudden cardiac arrest or provide CPR

It is well known that early resuscitation with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and an automated external defibrillator (AED) saves lives, and in most sports-related sudden cardiac arrest events, trainers or medical personnel respond and initiate protocols to resuscitate a player while other athletes standby.

An overview of the relationship between the exposome and cardiovascular health

Researchers discussed the association between cardiovascular health and the exposome.

Heart attack patients with concurrent COVID-19 have higher mortality risk, research shows

New research from the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai shows that patients who went to a hospital with a heart attack and were simultaneously sick with COVID-19 were three times more likely to die than patients experiencing a heart attack without a COVID-19 infection.

Heart attack during the first COVID-19 lockdown reduced two years of patients’ lives

Patients who had heart attacks during the first COVID-19 lockdown in the UK and Spain are predicted to live 1.5 and 2 years less, respectively, than their pre-COVID counterparts.

Most adults with diabetes do not receive prompt outpatient care after heart failure hospitalization

More than half of Medicaid-covered adults in Alabama with Type 2 diabetes did not receive follow-up health care within the recommended two-week period following hospitalization for newly-diagnosed heart failure, according to new research.

7 Jun 2023

New deep learning model lays the foundation for specialized diagnostic models

Mount Sinai researchers have developed an innovative artificial intelligence (AI) model for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis that allows for the interpretation of ECGs as language. This approach can enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of ECG-related diagnoses, especially for cardiac conditions where limited data is available on which to train.

Life-changing procedure using new aortic valve device clears way for patient in need of liver transplant and hip replacement

Janice Couch, 62, a retired pre-school teacher from Grand Rapids, Michigan, is finally physically ready to receive two procedures that stand to change her life, thanks to Henry Ford Health interventional cardiologists who paved the way by implanting a new aortic valve device for the first time in the health system's history.
