Seven out of ten children in the US have low levels of vitamin D, putting them at greater risk of eventually suffering from bone disease high blood pressure and other heart disease risk factors, according to research published in the online journal Pediatrics.

6 Factors in Accurate Blood Pressure Readings
Such a simple - and vitally important - item as a blood pressure reading can be considerably inaccurate unless six simple factors are taken into account. Getting an accurate reading is important because a false high reading can cause unnecessary medication, anxiety and disruption in a patient's life, and a false low reading can delay health-saving and even life-saving interventions.

Mechanics of Sleep Apnea Show Why It's Perilous
Sleep apnea – in which a sleeping person repeatedly ceases breathing for intervals – restricts the brain’s blood flow and raises its blood pressure, eventually disrupting the brain’s ability to control these dynamics and shield itself from damage, a recent study showed. The study, published by the American Physiological Society in the Journal of Applied Physiology, was performed by researchers at the Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn. The results revealed why America’s 18 million sleep apnea sufferers are at much greater risk than others for stroke and for dying in their sleep.

Metabolic Abnormalities Linked to a Form of Dementia
The condition known as metabolic syndrome – a group of abnormalities that opens the door to heart disease and diabetes – appears to be linked with an amplified risk of developing so-called vascular dementia, but not Alzheimer’s disease, a recent study revealed.
Vascular (blood-supply-related) dementia is the most common form of dementia after Alzheimer’s. It’s caused by the gradual narrowing of blood vessels in the brain, reducing oxygen supply and leading to deterioration of a person’s intellectual powers. The condition is often associated with stroke, and common risk factors are smoking and high blood pressure. ( Read more about Metabolic Abnormalities Linked to a Form of Dementia)

Compound in Indian Curry Attenuates Strokes
Curry may also be a pharmaceutical. Research that's being conducted at the Medical College of Georgia School of Medicine is showing that curcumin, the biologically active compound in curry's main spice, turmeric, can diminish the size of blood clots in the brain. These clots form when a blood vessel bursts in the brain, causing a hemorrhagic stroke. These comprise 17 percent of strokes, according to the American Stroke Association. As a bonus, curcumin reduces one's chances of coming down with cancer and Alzheimer's disease. ( Read more about Compound in Indian Curry Attenuates Strokes)

Chiropractic Technique Reduces Blood Pressure
A particular chiropractic adjustment has been shown to significantly improve high blood pressure, according to recent research. "This procedure has the effect of not one, but two blood-pressure medications given in combination," said study leader George Bakris, a medical doctor who is director of the University of Chicago hypertension center. "And it seems to be adverse-event free. We saw no side effects and no problems." ( Read more about Chiropractic Technique Reduces Blood Pressure)

Restless Legs Linked to Heart Disease and Stroke
A study published in the latest issue of Neurology found that people with restless leg syndrome (RLS) have double the risk of heart disease and stroke. The study included nearly 3,500 community based participants of average age 68 years from the Sleep Heart Health Study. The researchers used information provided by participants through detailed questionnaires to establish who had RLS and who had received a diagnosis for symptoms of angina, myocardial infarction, stroke or heart failure to help determine the presence of coronary artery disease and cardiovascular disease including reports of stroke or heart failure.

What is the Polypill?
Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the Polypill. The Polypill is being developed in response to an important reality surrounding cardiovascular disease. There are three important drugs that can help prevent heart disease (statins, ACE inhibitors, and aspirin). These drugs are not taken for two major reasons. First, the drugs are simply too expensive for much of the world, including countries as developed as Russia. And secondly, in developed nations where the drugs are affordable patients too often fail to comply - after three years 70% of patients do not take the medications as prescribed.

Your aorta serves a vital role to your body. It is the largest artery in the body and plays a critical role in the circulation of blood flow, transporting oxygen-rich blood from the left ventricle of the heart to the rest of the body. When tears occur in the lining of the aorta they are called as dissections, while weakenings in the aortic wall are called aneurysms. Although both conditions have the potential to be life endangering, they can be effectively treated by the qualified doctors with years of experience. As the Director of the Aortic Surgery Program at Columbia University Medical Center, Dr. Allan Stuart, MD is dedicated to helping those in the New York area treat any aortic related illnesses.
