Estrogen-based hormone therapies have favorable long-term effects on heart disease risk

Recent studies show that women can experience bothersome menopause symptoms, like hot flashes, for longer than originally estimated.

Girls exposed to endocrine-disrupting chemicals may be more likely to start puberty early

Girls exposed to certain endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may be more likely to start puberty early, according to new research published in Endocrinology, the flagship basic science journal of the Endocrine Society.

Timing of nocturnal hot flashes may impact heart disease risk

Nocturnal hot flashes are disruptive regardless of when they occur during the night. A new study suggests that more hot flashes occur during the second half of the night when more REM sleep typically occurs and when such disruption has a greater chance of increasing the risk of heart disease.

Adverse pregnancy outcomes may increase cardiovascular risk in postmenopausal women

Pregnancy-related hypertension has already been proven to lead to a number of negative health outcomes later in life, including more bothersome menopause symptoms like hot flashes, the risk of dementia, kidney problems, and stroke.

Breast arterial calcifications on mammograms may indicate higher cardiovascular risk

Heart disease risk assessment tools specific to women remain lacking, despite the fact cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in women.

Study links PTSD to higher risk of early menopause in Gulf War female veterans

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can cause an array of adverse mental health effects, but physical side effects are also common.

Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli reduce blood pressure compared to root and squash vegetables

Daily intake of cruciferous vegetables significantly lowers blood pressure in mildly hypertensive adults, highlighting their role in cardiovascular health.

By-products from olive oil production show promise for preventing cardiovascular disease, study shows

A study reveals olive oil wastewater extract enriched with hydroxytyrosol shows promise in preventing cardiovascular diseases through antioxidant properties.

Voice changes detected by smartphone may signal COPD symptom flare-ups

Changes in people's voices recoded on a smartphone can signal a serious flare up in symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to a pilot study presented at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Congress in Vienna, Austria.

Reduced heart rate variability linked to higher mortality in people with diabetes

Disruption to normal variations in daily heart rate (HR) is associated with a much higher risk of dying in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes over 21 years, according to new research to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), Madrid (9-13 Sept).

Cell-free RNA analysis enhances early detection of pediatric inflammatory conditions

RNA is expelled from cells via cell death or active release, and can then find its way into blood plasma. A Cornell University-led collaboration has developed machine learning models that use these cell-free molecular RNA dregs to diagnose pediatric inflammatory conditions that are difficult to differentiate.

Sally Ross Soter donates $15 million to advance women’s heart health

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for women, and gaps in care and access persist between women and men.

Good heart health during early pregnancy may reduce genetic risk of preeclampsia and hypertension

Maintaining good cardiovascular health during the first trimester of pregnancy may offset the genetic risk of developing preeclampsia and/or gestational hypertension, according to preliminary research presented at the American Heart Association's Hypertension Scientific Sessions 2024.

9 Sep 2024

Insulin resistance linked to 31 diseases and higher early death risk in women

Insulin resistance is associated with 31 different diseases and, in women, is also linked to higher odds of an early death, a study of data on hundreds of thousands of people in the UK being presented at the Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Madrid, Spain (9-13 September), has found.
