Chronic Inflammation: A Common Pathway Linking Genetic and Environmental Cardiovascular Risk
Higher levels of chronic systemic inflammation were associated with smaller left ventricular volumes, compensatory increases in heart rate, and substantially higher cardiovascular risk in a large UK Biobank study. Among 488,079 participants with metabolomic, proteomic, cardiac MRI, and longitudinal data, higher inflammation measured by glycoprotein acetyls (GlycA) was associated with […]
