The long-standing connection between depression and heart problems might be traceable to the fact that depressed people are less physically active than others, a new study of heart patients shows. A greater tendency in depressed people to smoke and to fail to take medications regularly may also play a role, researchers report in the Nov. 26 Journal of the American Medical Association

Grabbing as little as one glass of lowfat or fat free milk could help protect your heart, according to a new study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers found that adults who had at least one serving of lowfat milk or milk products each day had 37 percent lower odds of poor kidney function linked to heart disease compared to those who drank little or no lowfat milk. To determine heart disease risk, researchers from several universities in the United States and Norway measured the kidney function of more than 5,000 older adults ages 45 to 84
Diabetics who lower their blood sugar gain an increased risk of heart disease

For years, people thought that if diabetics could lower their blood sugar to non-diabetic levels, their increased risk of heart disease would go away. Not so! A U.S. federal study on patients with type II diabetes shows that, in diabetics, a low blood sugar level leads to increased risk of heart attack. The study, which has been in the works since the 1990s, has been halted.
It is still believed to be true that a low blood sugar level reduces the risk of kidney damage, blindness and amputations

Genetic tests to assess disease risk are proliferating but many are a waste of money and tell people little more than they would know from studying family history, medical experts said on Friday.

As they grow up, children with heart defects often suffer from learning and attention problems, as well as other cognitive and motor troubles. Now, a team of doctors has used sophisticated imaging on newborns with heart disease and found delayed brain development akin to what's seen in premature babies--a phenomenon that helps explain why infants with heart problems are at such high risk of brain injury. The work sheds new light on an emerging challenge in treating children with congenital heart disease.

"In the article titled "Cholesterol Fractions and Apolipoproteins as Risk Factors for Heart Disease Mortality in Older Men" by Clarke et al, published in the July 9th issue of the Archives (2007;167[13]:1373-1378), several errors were reported. On page 1373, "Results" section of the structured abstract, right-hand column, lines 9 and 10 the hyphen between "total" and "high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels" and the en-dash between "apolipoprotein B" and "apolipoprotein A1" should have been virgules

The increased heart risk from Vioxx, Merck & Co's withdrawn arthritis medicine, begins much earlier than after 18 months of use, according to a study that contradicts assertions by the drug maker and its scientists.
Healthy diet may decrease diabetes risk

Results of a new study suggest, adopting a diet rich in whole grains, vegetables and fiber while cutting back on red meat and fats may reduce the risk of developing diabetes,
Fitness level predicts heart problems

Researchers found that of more than 26,000 adults with no symptoms of heart disease, those who showed the greatest endurance on exercise tests had the lowest risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke over the next 10 years.

Depression raises risk of death from many causes
DanyC submitted, created time 1 year 6 months (www.reutershealth.com)
While studies have linked depression to a higher risk of death from heart disease, new research suggests that it may contribute to deaths from a range of causes.In a study of more than 61,000 Norwegian adults, 2,866 showed significant depression symptoms at enrollment between August 1995 and June 1997. Compared with undepressed participants, the depressed subjects had a higher risk of death from heart disease, stroke, as well as most major causes of death, at follow-up in January 2001.
Risk Factor Analysis of Permanent Pacemaker Infection

" All patients who had a PPM implanted at this institution from January 1991 to December 2003 were retrospectively reviewed. Each patient who experienced a PPM infection was matched with 2 control subjects by age, sex, year of implantation, and duration of follow-up. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed to identify significant risk factors for PPM infectionThese findings should assist clinicians in identifying patients who are at increased risk of PPM infection, as well as in developing strategies to minimize the modifiable risks.

Genes found to hold the key to beating common diseases

By identifying the genes underlying these conditions, researchers' study should enable scientists to understand better how disease occurs, which people are most at risk and, in time, to produce more effective, more personalised treatments.

The study, published in today's edition of The Lancet, found that people who took folic acid supplements saw their risk of stroke fall by about 18 per cent.Those who took the vitamins daily for an extended period (three years or more) saw their risk fall even more substantially, by 29 per cent.

Dr. Joan M. Dorn of the University at Buffalo, New York and colleagues found that while women who drank were at lower risk of having a non-fatal heart attack than their peers who abstained from alcohol, getting drunk once a month or more sharply increased their risk.
