Long-Term Study Reveals How Classic Risk Factors Shape Cardiovascular Disease Risk in different arterial territoriesACS researcher Manon van den Bogaart and colleagues have published new findings from the EPIC-Norfolk study, tracking over 23,000 adults for more than 20 years. Their work uncovers how traditional risk factors—high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and smoking—differently influence the risk of developing various types of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
New Study Uncovers Promising Drug Targets for Coronary Heart Disease by Integrating Multi-Omics DataA groundbreaking study has identified new potential drug targets for coronary heart disease (CHD) by combining genetic, metabolic, and tissue-level data. The research, led by an international team, leverages advanced Mendelian randomization techniques to link urinary metabolites, plasma proteins, and atherosclerotic plaque tissue, offering fresh insights into the biological pathways driving CHD.
