    on May 20, 2025

    Controlling blood pressure is not the only way to treat hypertension. A new study identified eight associated risk factors. Each risk factor addressed was associated with a 13% lower risk of premature death. Patients who addressed at least four of these risk factors had no greater risk of an early death than those without high blood pressure.

  • Genomic data shows widespread mpox transmission in West Africa prior to 2022 global outbreak
    on May 20, 2025

    Historically, most human mpox infections have resulted from zoonotic transmission –m eaning from animals to humans — and these spillovers have rarely led to human-to-human transmission. But during the 2022 global outbreak, mpox began spreading readily between people. A new study now shows the virus was circulating long before then.

  • Waist-to-height ratio predicts heart failure incidence
    on May 19, 2025

    Risk of heart failure (HF) has been shown to increase as body mass index (BMI) increases; however, BMI has limitations as an obesity measure. Over median follow-up of 13 years, waist-to-height ratio (WtHR) was found to significantly predict incident HF in almost 2,000 individuals in the Malm Preventive Project. WtHR may be a better metric than BMI to identify patients with HF who could benefit from targeted obesity interventions.

    on May 19, 2025

    The body defends itself against pathogens by depriving them of vital iron. However, this strategy doesn’t always succeed against Salmonella. Researchers have discovered that these bacteria specifically target iron-rich regions within immune cells to replicate. Their findings on how pathogens evade the immune defense are important for fighting infections.

    on May 19, 2025
