Performing moderate or vigorous physical activity may lower the risk of heart failure

A six-year analysis of more than 94,000 adults in the U.K. Biobank with no history of heart failure at enrollment has found that engaging in moderate or vigorous physical activity may lower the risk of developing heart failure, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association's flagship journal Circulation.

How does the maternal immune response balance SARS-CoV-2 antiviral responses with transplacental transfer of protection to the fetus?

Researchers found that in SARS-CoV-2 maternal infection, the balance between antiviral response and transplacental transfer of humoral and cellular protection relies on maternal IL-6 and IL10.

Target blood pressure of 77 mmHg provides no benefit for comatose cardiac arrest survivors

A target blood pressure of 77 mmHg provides no benefit to survival or neurological outcome in comatose cardiac arrest survivors compared with a 63 mmHg target, according to late breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2022.

Restrictive oxygenation target in comatose, post cardiac arrest patients does not cause harm

A restrictive oxygenation target in comatose patients resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest does not worsen survival or neurological outcome compared with a liberal target, according to late breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2022.

Heavy smoking and smoke inhalation linked to poor prognosis after a heart attack

The risk of death or poor prognosis after a heart attack is more than 20-fold higher in smokers with exhaled carbon monoxide levels above 13 ppm, indicating heavy smoking and inhalation of smoke.

CU professor explores for noninvasive ways to detect vascularized composite allograft rejection

Soldiers and others who receive severe injuries to the hands and face often can benefit from a type of transplant known as vascularized composite allograft (VCA) - the transplantation of multiple tissues, including muscle, bone, nerve, skin, and blood vessels, as a functional unit (such as a hand or face) from a deceased donor to a recipient with a severe injury.
