Timing of changes in menstrual cycle length could provide clues about a person's heart disease risk

As women near menopause, their menstrual cycle length often becomes longer. The timing of these changes could provide clues about a person's risk of developing heart disease, according to a new study led by University of Pittsburgh researchers.

Single-genome sequencing reveals malaria parasite genetics and evolution

Understanding how malaria parasites evolve after a human is bitten by an infected mosquito is very difficult. There can be billions of individual parasites in a patient's bloodstream and traditional genetic sequencing techniques can't identify the raw material for evolution: new mutations.

Exposure to air pollution and traffic noise over time may increase risk of developing heart failure

Exposure to air pollution and road traffic noise over the course of many years may be associated with an increased risk of developing heart failure, and the correlation appears to be even greater in people who are former smokers or have high blood pressure, according to new research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access journal of the American Heart Association.

Is gout a risk factor for COVID-19?

A team of international scientists has recently determined the association between gout and risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) related death in a large cohort of patients. Their findings reveal that gout can significantly increase the risk of COVID-19 and related mortality, with women having a higher risk than men. The study is currently available on the medRxiv* preprint server.
