Heart rate is determined by the number of heartbeats per unit of time, typically expressed as beats per minute (BPM), it can vary with as the body's need for oxygen changes, such as during exercise or sleep.

Cannabigerol lowers blood pressure of healthy mice

Cannabigerol, an extract found naturally in the cannabis plant, is an increasingly popular treatment (as over-the-counter CBG oil) for chronic pain and inflammation.

Just one extra scan could save mothers-to-be and their babies from complications

Adding a third routine scan at the end of pregnancy can slash the number of unexpected breech births by 70% and the risks of the baby being born with severe health complications, according to research led by doctors at St George's, University of London, and published in PLOS Medicine.

Obstructive sleep apnea can cause early cognitive decline even in patients without co-morbidities

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a potentially dangerous condition. During sleep, the throat muscles of people with OSA relax and block the airflow into the lungs, so that they repeatedly stop breathing.

Study suggests psychosocial factors, not acute infections, contribute to long-COVID in young adults

Researchers investigated the prevalence of post-coronavirus disease 2019 condition in adolescents and young adults

Social isolation linked to higher levels of tiredness

In a study conducted in the lab as well as during the COVID-19 lockdowns, participants reported higher levels of tiredness after eight hours of social isolation. The results suggest that low energy may be a basic human response to a lack of social contact.

Wearable devices could be used to detect higher risk of heart failure and arrhythmia

Wearable devices such as smart watches could be used to detect a higher risk of developing heart failure and irregular heart rhythms in later life, suggests a new study led by UCL researchers.
