Adopting a healthy cardiovascular lifestyle may lower stroke risk

Genes and lifestyle factors together play a role in stroke risk. However, even for people at high risk for stroke, adopting a healthy cardiovascular lifestyle may significantly lower the risk of stroke in their lifetime, according to new research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access, peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association.

Patients who contract COVID-19 face a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and diabetes

Patients who contract COVID-19 face a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, particularly in the three months following infection, according to a new study by Emma Rezel-Potts, Martin Gulliford, and colleagues of King's College London, United Kingdom, publishing July 19th in the open access journal PLOS Medicine.

Study finds decline in cardiovascular mortality rates over the last 20 years, but racial disparities remain

While it's well-established that Black adults experience a disproportionately high burden of cardiovascular risk factors and disease in comparison to white adults in the United States, few gender-based analyses of recent national trends exist.

Overstrict salt intake restriction could harm patients with heart failure with preserved ejection

Restricting salt intake is considered a key component of heart failure treatment, but restricting it too much may actually worsen the outcomes for people with a common form of the condition, suggests research published online in the journal Heart.

Cardiovascular mortality has declined over the past two decades, but disparities persist

Research supported by the National Institutes of Health shows that cardiovascular-related deaths have declined over the past two decades, but disparities remain.

Study: Air pollution responsible for 2,780 deaths and cognitive loss in children in Massachusetts

Air pollution remains a silent killer in Massachusetts, responsible for an estimated 2,780 deaths a year and for measurable cognitive loss in Bay State children exposed to fine particulate pollutants in the air they breathe, according to a new study by researchers at Boston College's Global Observatory on Planetary Health.

Men with hematopoietic mosaic loss of Y chromosome have worse prognosis for heart failure

research group led by Dr. Soichi Sano, a specially appointed lecturer in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka Metropolitan University, revealed that men with hematopoietic mosaic loss of Y chromosome (mLOY) — meaning men with an increase, in the blood, of cells that have lost the male sex chromosome — have a worse prognosis for heart failure due to fibrosis progression in the heart.

Mosaic loss of Y chromosome increases risk for heart failure and cardiac fibrosis in men

Why a condition that frequently occurs in aging men, in which an increasing number of hematopoietic cells display a loss of the Y chromosome, is associated with increased risk of mortality and age-related diseases is now a little clearer, thanks to work in mice.

Y chromosome loss in men can lead to deadly heart failure, research shows

The loss of the male sex chromosome as many men age causes the heart muscle to scar and can lead to deadly heart failure, new research from the University of Virginia School of Medicine shows.

Risk profiles in adults with cardiovascular disease fail to improve despite advances guidelines and treatments

In an analysis of medical information of more than 6,000 American adults with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD), researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine conclude that CVD risk "profiles" in secondary prevention have failed to improve over the last two decades.
