Good news! According to this study, midday naps have the ability to reduce blood pressure and possibly reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. I guess I'll have to make sure I get my naps in everyday! #biom4180 #anapadaykeepsthedoctoraway https://t.co/LIQf5xqVB4

Researchers in Spain have demonstrated an advanced imaging technique that is able to detect inflammation in arteries before plaques have developed. This may be an effective method for catching atherosclerosis early! #biom4180 #PET/MRI https://t.co/GhmCZ1R9VD

Swedish study demonstrated that while the number of patients who received CPR in general has increased, the increased use of chest compression-only CPR is associated with an overall increase in survival rate #biom4180 #CPRbasics https://t.co/vpDo6pcEbR

@Mackenz70119585 I think that it is definitely something that physicians should be aware of when diagnosing patients with depression. This way they can be proactive in monitoring heart function to hopefully catch any complications early if they arise! #biom4180

It has been found that depression may increase a patient's risk for atrial fibrillation and that treatment with anti-depressant drugs may help in reducing this risk. These findings help emphasize the relationship between the brain and heart! #biom4180 https://t.co/RT9CEQhBbW

@CardioMeag Great find! I find the integrations between the different systems and between different disorders super interesting to explore! #biom4180

Research finds young adults with end-stage renal disease have higher rates of mortality and hospitalization due to cardio events than kids and teenagers. I'm curious as to why there is such a difference between the ages groups #biom4180 #organsworktogether https://t.co/jNyU8zzRPK

The impact of #alcohol on your heart depends on how much and how often you drink, so be conscious of the decisions you are making. This article highlights some of the negative impacts including increased risk of #heartattack #biom4180 https://t.co/dR3hK0UVZb

Study suggests that a higher BP in later life may not be as harmful as we might think. While further research is definitely required, this study emphasizes that each hypertensive case should be evaluated individually #biom4180 https://t.co/z4G9JNssPb

Thank you @avincognito & @glenpyle #bio4180 for inviting me to talk to the future of cardiovascular medicine @uofg.💕

@heart_helpful Great point! We don't often worry about children and CVD but it is important to be aware of the signs!

Researchers found that an antiseptic compound found in mouthwash may be implicated in increasing blood pressure. This compound may decrease NO-producing bacteria in the mouth which is important in maintaining a healthy blood pressure. #biom4180 https://t.co/GVpQTnev5x

Study finds that obese children of women who consumed 600mg DHA during pregnancy were protected from high BP caused by their weight. This emphasizes the importance of having 600mg of DHA in prenatal vitamins, especially with obesity rates rising. #biom4180 https://t.co/J25bERR8tF

@biom4180studen1 Good find Jess! It seems intuitive that they believe that such an increase could be due to a change in diet and lifestyle but more research is definitely required! #biom4180 #womenshealth

Investigators found that machine learning algorithms can be useful in determining prognosis in patients with congenital heart disease or pulmonary hypertension and may further be useful in making therapeutic decisions #biotechnology #biom4180 #robotdoctors https://t.co/gTsXUCj0Uv

Study finds that the association between PTSD and CVD is not significant after controlling for factors such as sleep disorders, substance abuse, smoking, etc. Dealing with these factors in these patients may be beneficial to limiting risk for CVD #biom4180 https://t.co/dDAoDrXhM0

New research is outlining the increase in cognitive impairment that heart troubles could cause, possibly leading to dementia. Now is the chance to turn the risk factors around while we are still young to avoid cardiovascular problems! #BIOM4180 #HeartMonth

We know that resting HR generally declines with age and also in many athletes. Such a decrease could also be due to various problems with the heart's electrical conduction and therefore should be monitored #biom4180 #hearthealth #bradycardia https://t.co/rOpnWwIOxb

Although transgender medicine is a rapidly advancing field, long-term effects of HRT are still unclear. One study found that HRT increased BP and lipid levels in trans men but decreased them in trans women, therefore implicating their CV health. #biom4180 https://t.co/mTp9K7ccsO
