| Scientists have discovered that a type of fat accumulates as tissue ages and that this accumulation can be reversed through exercise. | |
|
| Comprehensive review contrasts global dietary sodium and potassium guidelines with Japan's, emphasizing the need for culturally tailored dietary recommendations to combat non-communicable diseases effectively. | |
|
| New findings from Cleveland Clinic and Tufts University researchers show high blood levels of TMAO (trimethylamine N-oxide) predicts future risk of developing chronic kidney disease over time. | |
|
| Treating gum disease in the 3-months after a procedure to correct an irregular heartbeat known as atrial fibrillation (AFib) may lower oral inflammation and may reduce AFib recurrence, according to new research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open access, peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association. | |

| Study in Oregon finds no definitive link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and sudden cardiac deaths among residents aged 16-30, emphasizing vaccine safety amidst ongoing public health discussions. | |
|
| A comprehensive review of heart failure management highlights significant advancements in treatment and diagnosis, emphasizing the integration of new medications and technologies to improve patient outcomes. | |
|
| The same technology that enables a bullet train to travel at speeds up to 200 mph without touching its rails now keeps a failing heart pumping-;and in the near future, it will do so via a wireless power connection. | |
|
| After the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) in 2002, many women have resisted taking hormone therapy (HT), especially after age 65 years, because of fears of increased risks for various cancers and heart disease. | |

|
| Study evaluates whether treating periodontitis during the blanking period after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation reduces AF recurrence, revealing that comprehensive periodontal care may significantly diminish recurrence rates by addressing inflammation linked to periodontitis. | |
|
| Women are at higher risk of death when undergoing heart bypass surgery than men. Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine have determined that this disparity is mediated, to a large extent, by intraoperative anemia-;the loss of red blood cells during surgery. | |
|
