Study shows beta cells can function independently for glycemic control

Our glycemic balance is based on the ability of the pancreatic beta cells to detect glucose and secrete insulin to maintain our blood sugar levels. If these cells malfunction, the balance is broken, and diabetes develops.

Plant-based fats outperform dairy fats in reducing heart disease and diabetes risks

A recent study confirms that replacing saturated fats from dairy with plant-based unsaturated fats significantly reduces cardiometabolic risks. The findings call for further validation in diverse populations.

Clonal hematopoiesis drives femoral atherosclerosis in middle-aged adults

Researchers reveal that clonal hematopoiesis (CH) significantly increases the risk of developing femoral atherosclerosis, suggesting a unidirectional relationship independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

Dietary patterns like fasting and the Mediterranean diet unlock molecular secrets to healthy aging

Study reviews the molecular mechanisms by which caloric restriction, intermittent fasting, the Mediterranean diet, and the ketogenic diet promote healthy aging.

Wearable heart monitor for AF screening increases diagnoses but not stroke prevention

Screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) using a wearable heart monitor for 2 weeks can identify older adults with this potentially dangerous abnormal heart rhythm, but does not prevent subsequent strokes, according to late breaking research presented in a Hot Line Session at this year's ESC Congress 2024 in London, UK (30 Aug - 2 Sept).

Pooled analysis shows finerenone reduces all-cause mortality but not cardiovascular death

A pooled analysis of three large trials failed to demonstrate significant reductions in cardiovascular death with finerenone, but significantly lower all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events and kidney outcomes were observed, according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2024.

Early viral activity plays critical role in long COVID, study suggests

Findings on early viral and immune markers provide insights into the pathogenesis of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2, informing future research and therapies.

Different types and sources of carbohydrate found to be protective against gout

The study found that carbohydrates prevent gout, whereas free sugars have the opposite impact.

Tirzepatide outperforms insulin in controlling diabetes and promoting weight loss in clinical trials

Tirzepatide, a once-weekly dual agonist, outperforms long-acting insulin in reducing HbA1c, body weight, and improving cardiovascular markers in Type 2 diabetes patients.

Is semaglutide use during breastfeeding safe?

Researchers found no detectable levels of semaglutide in breast milk, suggesting minimal risk to breastfed infants, but highlighted the need for monitoring maternal nutrition and milk production.

Fermented lingonberry juice shown to reduce inflammation and support gut health in IBD

Fermented lingonberry juice may help manage inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by modulating both the oral and gut microbiomes, reducing inflammation, and promoting beneficial bacteria.

Rising resting heart rate over the years linked to shorter lifespan, study show

Study finds that increases in resting heart rate over time significantly raise mortality risk, underscoring heart rate as a key factor in lifespan determination.

New study confirms safety of SGLT2 inhibitors after acute myocardial infarction

The SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin confers kidney-protective benefits and can therefore be given safely and effectively to patients when they are hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction (MI), a Mount Sinai-led global team of researchers has shown.

American football head impacts tied to increased brain damage and cognitive decline

Repetitive head impacts in former American football players are linked to increased perivascular space volume, which correlates with cognitive decline and neurodegeneration. The study suggests that the force of head impacts may be more critical than frequency, with potential protective effects from β-blocker use.

Lightly roasted coffee: Benefits for overweight individuals

Study found that consuming lightly roasted coffee rich in polyphenols significantly reduced body fat percentage and modestly increased muscle mass in overweight or obese individuals.
