After a cardiovascular event, it proves difficult to maintain a healthier, more active lifestyle over the long term. Although sedentary time decreases after participation in a cardiac rehabilitation lifestyle program, it regains within three months thereafter. Research from Radboud university medical center shows that a short remote booster program for chronic cardiovascular patients leads to a clear reduction in sedentary time and an increase in light physical activity, which lowers the risk of cardiovascular diseases. 

Biomedical researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have decoded how mechanical forces drive cell behavior in fibrosis.

he rise in kidney disease rates is a major concern for cardiovascular health around the world. Kidney disease increases heart disease risk, yet as many as 9 in 10 U.S. adults with chronic kidney disease do not know they have it.

The Cardiovascular Research Foundation^® (CRF^®) is pleased to announce that registration is now open for TCT^® 2025 (Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics^®), the world’s premier educational symposium in interventional cardiovascular medicine. TCT^® 2025 will take place October 25-28, 2025, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California.

Women of childbearing age who had both ovaries removed, in a procedure called bilateral oophorectomy, were more likely to develop heart failure later in life, according to a study being presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25).

 

The answer to your heart health may be on your wrist, a new study suggests. Researchers have developed a new way to assess cardiovascular health based on information routinely collected by smartwatches, according to a study being presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25).

Mammograms, with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) models, may reveal much more than cancer, according to a study being presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session (ACC.25). The findings highlight how these important cancer screening tools can also be used to assess the amount of calcium buildup in the arteries within breast tissue—an indicator of cardiovascular health.
