Στα συμπεράσματα της μελέτης που δημοσιεύτηκε πρόσφατα στο Neurology υπογραμμίζεται πως οι παράγοντες κινδύνου για την εμφάνιση καρδιακών παθήσεων, ιδίως η υψηλή αρτηριακή πίεση και ο διαβήτης, έχουν γίνει όλο και πιο κοινοί στη μέση ηλικία, εξ ου και είναι μέγιστης σημασίας η πρόληψη και οι αλλαγές στον τρόπο ζωής. «Διαπιστώσαμε ότι αυτοί οι δύο παράγοντες κινδύνου [σ.σ. υπέρταση και διαβήτης], καθώς και το κάπνισμα, σχετίζονται με υψηλότερες πιθανότητες επιταχυνόμενης γνωστικής έκπτωσης, ακόμη...

Σύμφωνα με νέα έρευνα του Πανεπιστημίου Columbia οι νεαροί ενήλικες που είναι υπέρβαροι ή παχύσαρκοι διατρέχουν υψηλότερο κίνδυνο άνοιας σε μεγαλύτερη ηλικία. Οι ερευνητές εξέτασαν 5,100 μεγαλύτερης ηλικίας ενήλικες που συμμετείχαν σε δυο μακροχρόνιες μελέτες. Οι ερευνητές παρατήρησαν ότι οι γυναίκες που ήταν υπέρβαρες στην ηλικία των 20-49 ετών είχαν σχεδόν διπλάσιο κίνδυνο εμφάνισης άνοιας στην ηλικία των 70.

Τη σημασία της φυσικής κατάστασης για τους ασθενείς που υποβάλλονται σε κατάλυση κολπικής μαρμαρυγής ανέδειξε νέα έρευνα, σύμφωνα με την οποία ασθενείς με καλή καρδιοαναπνευστική ικανότητα χάρη στην άσκηση φάνηκαν να επωφελούνται ουσιαστικά από αυτή την ελάχιστα επεμβατική θεραπεία. Αντίθετα, οι ασθενείς με κακή φυσική κατάσταση νοσηλεύονται συχνότερα, συνεχίζουν τη φαρμακευτική αγωγή για μεγαλύτερο χρονικό διάστημα και σημειώνουν υψηλότερα ποσοστά θανάτου.
