"We've long known that size and volume of the heart matter, but by examining shape, we're uncovering new insights into genetic risks," said study co-author Professor Patricia B. Munroe. Researchers are the first to examine the genetic basis...

A major new study by Intermountain Health researchers finds coronary artery calcium scores are not only highly effective in identifying those at risk for future heart attacks, but also for death, and risk prediction was found to be as good in...

“While spironolactone didn’t reduce deaths or other major heart complications after a heart attack, it did reduce the likelihood of heart failure, which is an important finding for patients and health care professionals," said Sanjit Jolly,...

The researchers suggest that fear of another heart attack should be evaluated and addressed separately from depression and anxiety. In the survey, the fear of another heart attack was significant at 6 months after the heart attack and still...

Men are more frequently affected by cerebral microbleeds (CMBs)—around 28% of patients had at least one microbleeding event, whereby the prevalence in men was significantly higher than in women. In contrast, women appeared to suffer damage to...

"Given the elevated bleeding risks associated with traditional anticoagulants, particularly when combined with antiplatelet agents, abelacimab may offer a safer alternative for patients with atrial fibrillation,” said Christian T. Ruff, MD,...

"The OPTION trial data provide clinical evidence indicating that, among patients who have undergone an ablation, LAAC with the Watchman FLX device is not only as safe, but superior to OAC therapy for reducing the risk of long-term bleeding...
