New study reveals alarming cardiovascular risks from COVID

The study published in Nature Cardiovascular Research reveals that SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can directly infect coronary vessels and arterial plaques, heightening the risk of cardiovascular complications like heart attacks and strokes. These findings offer critical insights into the increased long-term cardiovascular risks for COVID-19 survivors and open new avenues for targeted therapies.

SARS-CoV-2 infects coronary vessels, inducing plaque inflammation

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can directly infect the arteries of the heart and cause the fatty plaque inside arteries to become highly inflamed, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke, according to a study funded by the National Institutes of Health.

One gene variant could be a shield against severe COVID-19 lung damage

Researchers identify a specific genetic variant, rs2204985, linked to less severe lung involvement and a stronger immune response in COVID-19 patients with severe pneumonia. The study suggests that understanding this genetic marker could help identify high-risk individuals and enhance strategies for prevention and treatment.

Engineered mice reveal how Omicron subvariant BA.5 is more virulent

New research used engineered mice to compare SARS-COV-2 omicron subvariants and found one of them – BA.5 – was more virulent likely due to its ability to rapidly replicate early during infection.

Can COVID-19 vaccines turn the tide on long-haul symptoms?

The study finds that COVID-19 vaccination can significantly reduce symptoms and improve well-being in patients suffering from post-COVID-19 conditions (PCC). Vaccination also lowered systemic markers of inflammation but did not entirely eliminate persistent SARS-CoV-2 antigens, which may continue to contribute to inflammation.

Is presence of a premenstrual disorder associated with higher risk of early menopause and menopause-related vasomotor symptoms?

A new paper explores how PMDs affect the time of menopause and the severity of vasomotor menopausal symptoms like hot flashes.

21 Sep 2023

Early treatment with convalescent plasma may reduce risk of long COVID

Findings from a nationwide, multicenter study led by Johns Hopkins Medicine and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health suggest that patients with COVID-19 have less chance of developing post-COVID conditions - commonly known as long COVID - if they receive early treatment with plasma from convalescent (recovered) COVID patients that contain antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

20 Sep 2023

High-intensity exercise may reduce colorectal cancer risk in Lynch Syndrome patients

Regular and intense aerobic exercise may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer in patients with Lynch Syndrome (LS) by improving the immune system's ability to detect and remove potentially harmful cells, according to researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
