Nutrition sciences professor Neda Akhavan's recent study suggests spuds as a potential superfood for those with Type 2 diabetes.
A Yale School of Medicine team reports in a new study that an artificial intelligence (AI) model was able to reliably diagnose people living with Marfan Syndrome from a simple facial photograph.
Os wearables medem vários aspectos da saúde, e a variabilidade da frequência cardíaca pode ser um deles. Você pode ficar surpreso quando o seu dispositivo informa que a variabilidade da sua frequência cardíaca é alta ou baixa, mas o que isso significa? O Dr. Elijah Behr, cardiologista na Mayo Clinic Healthcare em Londres, explica a variabilidade da frequência cardíaca e como ela influencia a saúde.
Los dispositivos portátiles miden varios aspectos de la salud, y la variabilidad del ritmo cardíaco puede ser uno de ellos. Puede que se sorprenda cuando su dispositivo le diga que la variabilidad de su frecuencia cardíaca es alta o baja, pero ¿qué significa eso?

Hackensack University Medical Center is pleased to offer the new renal denervation (RDN) procedure for certain patients with high blood pressure.
New Cleveland Clinic research shows that consuming foods with erythritol, a popular artificial sweetener, increases risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke. The findings, from a new intervention study in healthy volunteers, show erythritol made platelets (a type of blood cell) more active, which can raise the risk of blood clots.

Emergency medical services (EMS) agencies that adopt four or more critical best practices have higher rates of survival among cardiac arrest patients than their peers, a nationwide study co-led by a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher found. The study, published in JAMA Cardiology, identified seven key practices related to simulation training, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and transport that were associated with favorable neurological survival for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).
Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys and Salk Institute for Biological Studies have uncovered a new role for a protein known for its role in the brain helping control feelings of hunger or satiety, as well as in the liver to aid the body in maintaining a balance of energy during fasting. The new study shows that this protein also supports the maintenance of heart structure and function, but when it is overactive it causes thickening of the heart muscle, which is associated with heart disease.
A new small study led by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers and published July 25th in the journal Nature Cardiovascular Research has revealed the impact of obesity on muscle structure in patients having a form of heart failure called heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
High blood pressure affects about 45% of U.S. adults. In the 1970s, only about 50% of patients were aware of their hypertension. Today, 54% are aware of their high blood pressure, 40% are actively treated and 21% are actively controlled. As such, researchers alert health care providers that the old “silent killer” is alive and well.
By itself, AFib isn’t life-threatening, but it can lead to life-threatening consequences. A Penn State Health expert discusses why that flutter in your chest is important and new treatments that are available.
Having high blood pressure, specifically high diastolic blood pressure, was linked to a slightly higher odds of ever having migraine in female participants, according to a new study published in the July 31, 2024, online issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology. Diastolic pressure is when the heart is resting between beats.
University Hospitals has received numerous American Heart Association Get With The Guidelines® - Stroke quality achievement awards for ensuring stroke patients receive the most appropriate treatment according to nationally recognized, research-based guidelines, ultimately leading to more lives saved and reduced disability.
Cardiologists in Mayo Clinic's Heart Rhythm Clinic are using a new innovative energy source to safely and successfully treat a common type of heart arrhythmia. The therapy, called pulsed field ablation (PFA), has received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval and represents a significant milestone in treating atrial fibrillation (AFib).
The HOTWIRE™ RF guidewire device by Atraverse Medical, a San Diego-based medical device company, has been used for the first time in clinical practice by world-renowned cardiac electrophysiologist, Dr. Devi Nair, at St. Bernards Medical Center.
