Scientists developed a quick, painless MRI scan that measures heart oxygen levels in just three minutes, potentially transforming how doctors catch and treat heart failure early. The technology could help millions of Americans get better care without invasive procedures.
After beating two cancers, Sherry Mengel faced an unexpected battle when chemotherapy caused congestive heart failure 19 years later. Now she's partnering with her doctor to show other women that heart disease doesn't have to be a death sentence.
Scientists may have found a way to help millions with a stubborn form of heart failure by targeting a protein that makes heart muscles too stiff. Early research in mice shows the approach could restore flexibility to struggling hearts.
Scientists in Japan discovered the precise drug combination that allows lab-grown heart cells to survive transplant without rejection in primates. The findings bring life-saving regenerative medicine closer to reality for millions suffering from severe heart failure.
A new AI platform turns everyday smartwatches into powerful heart monitors for millions of Americans living with heart failure. The FDA just gave it breakthrough status, potentially preventing countless emergency room visits.
Scientists have discovered a way to make stiff heart muscles more flexible by targeting a specific protein, offering new hope for millions living with a common form of heart failure. Early results in mice show the approach could help patients enjoy better quality of life and more precious time with family.
Scientists just created the first complete map of how gene control breaks down in failing hearts, revealing thousands of new targets for treatment. This breakthrough could finally give doctors more ways to help the 26 million people worldwide living with heart failure.
A smartphone app that spots worsening heart failure just by analyzing your voice just earned FDA breakthrough status. Six million Americans with heart failure could soon monitor their condition without needles, implants, or doctor visits.
A new AI-powered home device can detect worsening heart failure nearly two weeks before patients need hospital care, without requiring them to do anything. The FDA has granted breakthrough status to the passive monitoring system that reduced hospital events by 47% in trials.
Scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder are studying pythons' remarkable ability to grow and shrink their hearts without damage, hoping to unlock treatments for human heart disease. The snakes can fast for months while maintaining muscle strength and boost their metabolism up to 40 times after eating.
A Virginia man walked out of cardiac rehab after surviving cardiogenic shock, proving that specialized heart failure treatment can restore what serious illness takes away. His recovery shows how certified cardiac programs are giving patients their lives back.
Scientists discovered that a common diabetes medication dramatically reduces heart failure in people carrying rare genetic variants for heart disease. The finding could transform preventive care for thousands at high genetic risk.
Researchers created the first detailed map of how genes malfunction in heart failure, opening doors to new treatments for the world's leading cause of death. The breakthrough could help millions who've had limited options until now.
Researchers created the most detailed map ever of how gene regulation fails in heart disease, analyzing 750,000 individual cells to reveal new treatment targets. The breakthrough could finally give doctors more tools to fight the world's leading cause of death.
Researchers have discovered a crucial clue explaining why people with chronic kidney disease face such high rates of heart failure. This breakthrough could transform how doctors diagnose and treat two of the world's most common health conditions.
A groundbreaking treatment used stem cells to grow new heart muscle for people with failing hearts, strengthening their ability to pump blood. The patches offer new hope for patients waiting for transplants or left ventricular assist devices.
Scientists just pinpointed a microscopic protein region that keeps hearts beating steadily, opening doors to future treatments for devastating heart conditions. The breakthrough could help millions born with or developing life-threatening heart rhythm problems.
Scientists discovered that severe obesity weakens heart muscle cells in a common form of heart failure, but losing weight can reverse the damage. The breakthrough could help 6.6 million Americans living with heart failure.
Thousands of heart failure patients could soon skip a risky procedure where doctors thread tubes into their hearts, thanks to a breakthrough MRI technique. UK researchers developed a method to measure crucial blood oxygen levels using a standard scan instead.
Scientists at MIT and Harvard created an AI that forecasts which heart patients will worsen up to a year before it happens. The tool could help doctors save lives while reducing unnecessary hospital visits for lower-risk patients.
