A meta-analysis published in JAMA Pediatrics found that greater moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is associated with modestly more favorable cardiometabolic risk markers in children, altho

Early mitral valve (MV) surgery is associated with improved long-term survival in patients with asymptomatic severe primary mitral regurgitation (MR), including those without evidence of left ventricu

Anticoagulation monotherapy after transcatheter aortic valve implant (TAVI) nearly halves the risk of subclinical valve leaflet thrombosis while remaining noninferior for safety, according to new tria

Aspirin remains an important component of early antiplatelet treatment after an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), according to t

People in the U.S. are more likely to have high cholesterol, hypertension and diabetes, yet the U.S. manages these risks as effectively as, and often better than, England and South Korea, according to

New findings suggest residual technical and clinical risk after intravascular lithotripsy (IVL)-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is driven by patient, lesion and procedural factors ra

Community intervention reduces cardiovascular risk, namely by improving blood pressure with extra gains from accompanying behavioral or metabolic improvements, according to a post hoc analysis of a ru

Contemporary renal denervation (RDN) is safer than surgical sympathectomy for hypertension, according to a new perspective, but its blood pressure (BP)-lowering effects are modest and unpredictable, a
