CONGENITAL heart diseaseDEEP learningMEDICAL personnelMORTALITY risk factorsINFANT careCongenital heart disease (CHD) is a critical global public health concern, particularly when it comes to newborn mortality. Low- and middle-income countries face the highest mortality rates due...
Dr. Verdin and his colleagues also analyzed the SIRT3genesof 8,000 Finnish men. This analysis pinpointed a single SIRT3 gene mutation in 30% of the men. When present, the mutation reduced SIRT3 activity and increased risk for developing the metabolic syndrome. "Finding a SIRT3 gene mutatio...
The COVID-19 mortality rate varies between countries. It is estimated that the global COVID-19 mortality rate is 2.2% [12,13]. The results of research to date indicate that there are several risk factors that predispose a patient to severe COVID-19 disease and mortality. These include olde...
Glucose tolerance, plasma insulin, HDL cholesterol and obesity: 12-year follow-up and development of coronary heart disease in Edinburgh men The insulin response to a standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and other anthropometric and biochemical risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD......
“By applying our model to a person’s genome, we can find clinically undetectable heart arrhythmias or other related conditions,” explains Miyazawa. “This is critical as finding those at risk before they have a stroke is the goal for any risk-prediction analysis.” ...
Professor Smith said: "As a psychiatrist, this is an exciting discovery because we have identified for the first time genetic risk factors for a personality trait which is of fundamental importance for psychological wellbeing. "This work could open new avenues for future research and for the iden...
Conclusions: After adjusting for traditional risk factors, those with a high genetic risk score had a 57% increased risk of incident coronary heart disease in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study. Genet Med 2007:9(10):682– 689. Key Words: Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study, ...

The researchers said that targeting the newly discovered mechanism could be a breakthrough that one day leads to new treatments for heart disease and sleep disorders.
Scientists at the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease have identified for the first time key genetic factors that drive the process of generating new heart cells. The discovery, reported in the current issue of the journalNature, provides important new directions on how stem cells may be ...
