After this model was implemented, the gap in heart health outcomes we measured between First Nations and non-Indigenous patients closed.
A gene can help explain why people who easily trust others have better health.
Maybe testosterone replacement therapy isn’t such a bad idea.
Human heart organoids allow researchers to study the developing heart while avoiding the ethical issues of using human embryos and the imperfections of animal models.
The so-called ‘thumb-palm’ test may tell if you are at risk of a ballooning artery. But the evidence is far from certain.
New research confirms that COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective at reducing the cardiovascular complications that are a hallmark of COVID-19 infection.
Recent research found eating within an eight-hour window increased risk of death from heart disease. But it’s complicated.
Researchers designed an ultrathin pacemaker that can be implanted via minimally invasive techniques, potentially improving recovery time and reducing the risk of complications.
The Atlantic diet draws inspiration from the traditional eating habits of people living in Spain and Portugal.
Potassium-enriched salt tastes like regular salt and you don’t need to change how you cook or season your food. You just need to switch the type of salt you buy.
Heart rates that are too slow or too fast can sometimes be lethal. Medical implants can help the heart get its rhythm back.
From math to evolutionary game theory, looking at cancer through different lenses can offer further insights on how to approach treatment resistance, metastasis and health disparities.
Eating too much salt is bad for our health. Governments and food manufacturers have a big role to play in reducing the salt content of Australians’ diets.
Obesity is a disease that shares several characteristics with cancer, but does not get the same society-wide recognition of its disease status, so people with obesity are less likely to get treatment.
Cardiovascular disease and cancer share many parallels in their origins and how they develop. Nanoparticles offer one potential way to effectively treat both with reduced side effects.
Clinical trials have demonstrated the health benefits of cannabis for certain conditions, but many aren’t testing smoked or vaped forms. Research on cannabis smoke is raising concerns.
When people taking part in 22 pilot programs across the US got free fruits and vegetables, their health improved.
Nearly two in every three British south Asians were found to have a genetic marker that makes the common drug less effective.
