Some acute and chronic viral infections linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease

In the weeks following a bout of influenza or COVID, the risk of heart attack or stroke may rise dramatically, and chronic infections such as HIV may increase the long-term risk of serious cardiovascular disease events, according to new, independent research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access, peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association.

Women gain stronger heart protection from exercise than men, study reveals

Researchers analyzing over 85,000 UK Biobank participants found that women gain greater cardiovascular benefits from physical activity than men, needing only half the exercise to achieve similar reductions in coronary heart disease and mortality risk. The study underscores the importance of sex-specific guidelines for CHD prevention.

Wireless retinal implant restores sight in patients blinded by advanced macular degeneration

A new trial shows that a wireless subretinal implant, the PRIMA system, restored central vision in patients with geographic atrophy caused by age-related macular degeneration. After one year, 81% achieved clinically meaningful vision gains and most could read at home using prosthetic vision.

Clinical Frailty Scale can quickly predict mortality in patients with heart failure

Frailty is closely linked to adverse outcomes in older adults, particularly those with heart failure. Numerous epidemiologic studies show that frailty has important prognostic value in this population, underscoring the need for routine assessment.

28 Oct 2025

Study highlights non-inferiority of super-high-pressure non-compliant balloons in coronary interventions

New study findings show that utilizing super-high-pressure non-compliant balloons (NCB) is non-inferior to intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) balloon catheters for lesion preparation and stent expansion in severely calcified lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
