Stopping aspirin effects on coronary heart disease patients.

A new study found that people who suffer coronary artery disease are still in danger of developing a heart attack if they stop taking aspirin. Doctors do no advice to stop aspirin except when it is suggested by the patients is doctor.

The study which was done by Biondi-Zoccai from the University of Turin, looked at the effects of cutting aspirin for coronary heart disease patients.

The results showed that stopping aspirin increases the risk of developing heart attack by three times. This results concluded that stopping aspirin should be avoided except in operations as doctors suggests.

heart disease and obesity

Obesity is considered as one of the main causes of heart disease symptoms, due to this reason many obese are make obesity operations specially in the United States. The recent numbers of obesity operation statistics showed that the number of obesity operation had increased by huge number since 2004. However these operations cost a lot of money, and for some people it is unaffordable. So it is advised that those people reduce their weight by the best and the natural way, by exercises.

Vitamin E decreases heart disease risk

A new study found that vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) can prevent middle aged men smokers from heart disease and cancer. The study which took 19 years included 29,092 participants of old men smokers.

At the end of the study researches found that participants who had large amount of vitamin E were less likely to die from heart disease or cancer.

Heart disease in diabetics and iron relationship.

A recent report published in the journal Diabetes Care noted that foods rich in iron may raise the danger of heart disease in diabetics. Doctors suggested type 2 diabetics to reduce eating rich iron and red meat.

The study included 6161 women with type 2 diabetes between 1980 and 2000. During that period there were 550 new conditions of heart disease.

Researches found that women who took high amount of heme iron were 50 percent more likely to develop heart disease than those who took low amounts of iron. Also it was found that risk of heart disease increases in women who were postmenopausal.

Despite the results, researches did not prove that high amount of iron may cause heart disease, but it is still related to it. And reducing the amount of iron is very helpful for people with diabetes to cut the risk of diabetes.

Diabetes drugs-new study

A new study showed that People with diabetes who used drug-eluting stents had less heart attacks and heart disease symptoms than those who used bare-metal stents. Stent receivers who did not require insulin (type 2) to control their diabetes had less deaths from heart attacks than those who required it (type 1). This study looked over 1,510 participants with diabetes, two thirds of them did not need insulin.

On the other hand, researches found that drug-eluting stents increase risk of blood clots in long time, but many doctors still support for their benefits.

The results showed that 40 percent of participants who needed insulin and were given bare-metal stents died due to heart disease and attacks in 9 months. However, only 10.8 percent of patients who were insulin-dependent and were given sirolimus-coated stents died, and 14.2 percent of insulin-dependent who were given paclitaxel-coated variety.

A new way of heart disease indication

A new heart disease prediction has been discovered by British researches. It is a way to measure the risk of getting heart disease. Also they found that from Telomeres of the DNA and chromosomes, coronary heart disease can be predicted. This study included 1500 men who were aged between 45 and 64 years old.

After researches the Scientists found that people with short length of telomere are more likely to develop heart disease symptoms, as Professor Nilesh Samani, of the University of Leicester mentioned. This study proved some earlier studies which found that people with heart disease have short telomeres.

Telomeres guard the ends of the chromosomes, and if it gets smaller this will make the chromosome at risk alteration.

Congenital heart disease symptoms in the U.S

A new study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association showed that symptoms of congenital heart disease between American adults are increasing. Those adult survived from congenital heart disease symptoms in their childhood which shows a success in treating this type of diseases as noted Dr. Ariane Marelli from McGill University. The rate of the increase of congenital heart disease was 85 percent.

One of the main reasons which researches see is the advances of caring in childhood. This advance reduces the number of deaths among babies from congenital heart disease in the last forty years. In the next few years the rate of surviving babies will increase as researches expect.

Heart attack risk and Lipitor.

Pfizer has sponsored a study on lipitor which showed that patients who take blood pressure and cholesterol drugs reduce the risk of getting heart attack.

The study which included 19000 participants found that lipitior can reduce the risk of getting heart attack by 53 percent. Also taking Lipitor with Norvasc is three times better than taking Lipitor with beta-blocker in cutting heart attacks.

coronary heart disease and posttraumatic stress disorder.

A new study shows that coronary heart disease risk in increasing with men show symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder.

Posttraumatic stress disorder is a result of combat experience, it could also appear after accidents like falling and car accidents. Flashbacks to the incident, nightmares, sleep problems, sadness, touchiness and weak concentration are the symptoms of the disorder.

The results found that the risk of getting heart attack increased by 26 percent in men who developed symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder.

Diabetes risk factor and coffee.

A recent study shows that people who drink coffee are less likely to have type two diabetes. The effect is probably not related to caffeine; because it was also found in decaffeinate coffee.

There were about 910 participants included in the study and they were older than 55 years and do not have diabetes.

The results found that people who were drinking coffee regularly were 60 percent less likely to suffer type two diabetes than those who were not drinking coffee regularly. However, doctors still unable to determine the amount of coffee which is needed to get the effective results.
