A survey-based Metabolic Multimorbidity Burden Index identified substantial differences in health risk beyond body mass index, with high burden linked to poorer health outcomes.

Ferumoxytol is an effective contrast agent in 3D whole-heart CMR even at low doses, new research has found.

Pre-clinical trials showed long-term L-tartaric acid treatment improved cardiac function and was associated with reduced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

New research suggests a plant based diet and higher fibre intake are associated with lower estimated cardiovascular risk in severe autoimmune diabetes.

New evidence suggests regular physical activity was linked to beneficial metabolomic differences and greater cardiac parasympathetic modulation in healthy men.

A meta analysis of 14 randomised trials found abbreviated dual antiplatelet therapy reduced bleeding without increasing major cardiovascular events in patients at high bleeding risk undergoing PCI.

New research identifies abnormal cholesterol signalling as a driver of cardiomyocyte dysfunction in dilated cardiomyopathy, revealing links between lipid metabolism, ER structure, and sarcomere organisation.

COVID-19 is associated with a significantly increased risk of new-onset obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome, according to novel research.
