Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and ischemic stroke are the leading cause of premature death and disability in Europe.
Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death in the world. This can have many causes, but atherosclerosis is one of the most common. Accumulation of fats, cholesterol and other substances in and on the walls of arteries, leading to … +read more
Lowering LDL cholesterol in asymptomatic familial hypercholesterolemia reduces atherosclerosis
Reduction of so-called bad LDL cholesterol in asymptomatic patients with familial hypercholesterolemia is associated with a decrease in atherosclerosis and, therefore, a lower likelihood of suffering a heart attack. + read more
Up to 12 cell types associated with coronary heart disease have been identified.
Within a relatively homogeneous population of cells, significant variability in specific responses to similar stimuli, also known as cell states, can be found. + read more
October 12 Hospital explores the potential of AI to treat and predict hematological diseases
