Did you know that recent research indicates that poor oral health during childhood can result in a higher incidence of cardiovascular disease during adulthood?

A tooth cavity and bleeding gums is a common scenario among Danish children – and one that researchers now connect to health problems long after the last baby tooth has left the mouth.

Recent research suggests that that routine pregnancy assessments particularly third-trimester biomarkers such as high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) may serve as powerful predictors of long-term maternal CVD risk.

Clinical measures and biomarkers during pregnancy, including hs-cTnI and sFlt-1, can help identify women at higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease later in life.

Recent research shows that drug that targets immune cells also shows potential for treatment of heart disease related to diabetes.

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London have found that a medication originally developed for glycemic control can reverse serious heart damage—not by controlling blood sugar as originally intended, but by retraining the immune system to protect the heart from within.

Recent research suggests that less sugar consumption as a infant equates to a risk of fewer heart attacks as an adult.

People whose sugar intake was restricted before birth and in early childhood had markedly lower rates of heart disease later in life. Compared to those never exposed to rationing, their risks of heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and cardiovascular death were cut by roughly 20–30%.

According to recent research there are gender discrepancies in relationship to the presence of coronary plaque and risk of cardiovascular events.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of death globally. In CAD, plaques composed of cholesterol, fats, calcium and other compounds accumulate and create obstructions in the coronary vessels that supply blood to the heart.
