3-T unenhanced Dixon GRE performs higher than current standard for unenhanced coronary MRA

According to ARRS' American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), the 3-T Dixon gradient-recalled echo (GRE) sequence performed higher than the current standard of 1.5-T SSFP for unenhanced coronary MRA, which could help expand clinical adoption of the procedure.

Reduced kidney function caused by antithrombotic therapy can influence bleeding events

Antithrombotic therapy is prescribed to prevent thrombotic (blood clotting inside a blood vessel) events but the treatment also increases the likelihood of experiencing a bleeding event, which can be extremely serious if it occurs in a vital organ.

Computer algorithm predicts coronary artery disease-related events based on voice recordings

An artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer algorithm accurately predicted a person's likelihood of suffering heart problems related to clogged arteries based on voice recordings alone, in a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's 71st Annual Scientific Session.

Daily coffee intake associated with benefits to heart health

Drinking coffee - particularly two to three cups a day - is not only associated with a lower risk of heart disease and dangerous heart rhythms but also with living longer, according to studies being presented at the American College of Cardiology's 71st Annual Scientific Session.

New smartphone app can calculate users’ genetic risk for coronary artery disease

A Scripps Research team developed a smartphone app that can calculate users' genetic risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) - and found that users at high risk sought out appropriate medication after using the app.

Cardiovascular markers for predicting clinical outcomes in SARS-CoV-2 infection

In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, an interdisciplinary team of researchers from Toronto, Canada, characterized the markers of endothelial function and developed micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) expression atlas in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-positive and -negative patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).

Enhanced external counterpulsation therapy benefits long COVID-19 patients

In a small study of long COVID-19 patients, those with and without coronary artery disease demonstrated improvement of a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, breathing difficulties and chest discomfort, after undergoing 15-35 hours of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) therapy.

Study suggests hospitalized COVID-19 patients are at higher risk of neurocognitive decline

In a new study, scientists have evaluated patient-reported and clinically tested neuropsychological problems in both ambulatory (outpatients) and hospitalized COVID-19 patients during the early recovery phase.
