Blood test offers insight into Alzheimer's stage and severity

A newly developed blood test for Alzheimer's disease not only aids in the diagnosis of the neurodegenerative condition but also indicates how far it has progressed, according to a study by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and Lund University in Sweden.

Swedish researchers identify genetic variants linked to atherosclerosis

Swedish researchers have identified genetic variants that increase the risk of atherosclerosis. The aim is for these new findings to enable earlier detection of atherosclerosis and improved treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke.

Speech neuroprosthesis unlocks near-real-time communication for patients with paralysis

Marking a breakthrough in the field of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), a team of researchers from UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco has unlocked a way to restore naturalistic speech for people with severe paralysis.

Fluid restriction does not improve health in heart failure patients

People with heart failure have long been advised to limit the amount of fluids they consume each day to help reduce congestion, or the buildup of fluid in the lungs and extremities, but that advice provides no benefit, according to a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session.

Trilogy valve demonstrates safety and effectiveness in treating aortic regurgitation

Patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with a valve designed to treat aortic regurgitation had an overall mortality rate of just 8.1% at one year, well below the trial's prespecified goal of 25% to show non-inferiority, according to a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25).

Embolic protection device does not reduce stroke rate in TAVR procedure

A device designed to remove embolic material—fragments of tissue that can be released into the bloodstream during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)—did not result in a reduction in the rate of stroke, according to a randomized trial presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session.

$Intravenous iron shows promise for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction$

Intravenous iron shows promise for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

Among iron-deficient patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), receiving intravenous iron supplementation was found to be safe but resulted in mixed findings, according to a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25).

AI-based imaging performs equally well as ultrasound in guiding heart procedures

Patients with narrowing of at least 50% in three major coronary arteries did equally well when treated with a minimally invasive stent placement guided either by ultrasound-based imaging or by a novel, artificial-intelligence-powered (AI), non-invasive imaging technique derived from angiography, researchers reported at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25).

Racial disparities persist in survival rates for young athletes with cardiac arrest

The overall survival rate of athletes who suffer sudden cardiac arrest has improved over the past decade, but the likelihood of surviving varies by race, where the cardiac arrest occurred and what athletes were doing when they collapsed, according to featured clinical research presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25) and simultaneously published in JACC.

Heart attack deaths during marathons decline significantly, study reveals

While more people than ever are running marathons in the U.S., the risk of dying from a heart attack during a run has fallen dramatically in recent years.

Study finds no benefit of early IABP use in cardiogenic shock patients

Compared with standard medical care, early use of a temporary intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) to support heart function in patients who were critically ill with cardiogenic shock caused by heart failure did not improve 60-day survival or enable more patients to successfully transition to long-term treatment, according to featured clinical research presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25) and simultaneously published in JACC

FAME-3 study reveals similar outcomes for CABG and PCI in severe triple-vessel heart disease

In sharp contrast to earlier studies, patients with severe triple-vessel heart disease fared equally well whether they underwent open-heart bypass surgery (CABG) or a less invasive procedure called PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) at five years of follow-up, according to research presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session.

Research shows clopidogrel as better long-term therapy than aspirin after PCI

People at high risk for recurrent cardiac events following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a procedure to open blocked arteries, experienced significantly better outcomes with clopidogrel rather than aspirin as their long-term antiplatelet therapy, according to research presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session.

Study finds high rates of undiagnosed and untreated peripheral artery disease

A new Intermountain Health study finds that peripheral artery disease, a condition that affects more than 10 million Americans over the age of 40, is often underdiagnosed and undertreated, with fewer women getting guideline-directed medical therapy than men.

Antidepressant use associated with higher risk of sudden cardiac death in all age groups

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) refers to an unexpected death of a person, believed to be caused by a heart-related issue. It occurs within one hour of the onset of symptoms in witnessed cases or within 24 hours of the person being last seen alive in unwitnessed cases.
