For #SciArtSeptember day 9: heart, it’s trailblazing American #biochemist Marie Maynard Daly (1921-2003), 1st Black woman to earn a PhD in #chemistry in the US! She made important research contributions to the biochemisty of the cell nucleus & cardiovascular issues & our knowledge of the chemistry of histones & protein synthesis. She published original research establishing that….

Why have deaths from #HeartDisease stopped dropping? New data in the Journal of the American Heart Association tell us it's all about obesity-related heart deaths going up 3X. For Black women and American Indians, #disparities make it even worse.

“#Vaccines and treatments for #SARSCoV2 have reduced the morbidity and mortality associated with SARS-CoV-2 infections for the majority of the population, but there remain important subgroups that continue to be at elevated risk for severe disease and death, including #OlderAdults, people who have #immunocompromising conditions, and people who have severe #coexisting conditions, such as #ChronicLungDisease or #HeartDisease.”

They are available now but pricy. Not a lot for us high maintenance humans but a good start. #lpa #heartdisease #heart

Among U.S. Latinos, regular moderate-to-vigorous physical activity has health benefits even for those with heart disease risk factors. An active lifestyle may blunt the link between advancing age and worsening heart health.

High blood sugar, they say, is a risk
For heart disease, even if you don't have diabetes
So if your gluclose level's too high
It'll cause heart disease in a jiffy
It's best to keep it down, lest you pay a hefty price

In the REPRIEVE randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, pitavastatin 4 mg daily was associated with a 35% lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in people with HIV who had low to moderate ASCVD risk. Median age was 50 years, 87% had undetectable HIV viral load and median LDL at enrollment was 108 mg/dL. (Grinspoon S. et al, NEJM doi: 10.1056/NEJMoa2304146)

Onions not only enhance the flavor of various foods and dishes but are also an excellent source of antioxidants. In fact, they contain over 25 different varieties of flavonoid antioxidants; and these antioxidants inhibit oxidation, a process that leads to cellular damage and contributes to diseases like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
