Zero coronary calcium does not mean zero cardiovascular risk
A zero calcium score is useful, but it should not be used to dismiss sustained LDL-C elevation in young adults.

Senescent cardiac cells promote thrombus formation and impair fibrinolysis
As a major contributor to cardiac diseases, thrombosis, a pathological process in which the formation of a blood clot restricts blood flow, is a leading cause of mortality worldwide.

Genome-wide analysis of subcortical aging identifies a spatially structured pattern of genetic associations
Local brain age (LBA) is a spatially resolved biomarker of brain aging that captures regional deviations from chronological age, yet its genetic architecture in the subcortex remains unexplored.

Scientists discover why poor sleep may harm some brains more
A gene involved in the brain’s overnight cleaning system may change how strongly poor sleep affects Alzheimer’s-related brain changes. The findings point toward more personalized prevention strategies based on both genetics and sleep habits.

A 42-year-old childhood obesity theory may be wrong
New research challenges the decades-old idea that children experience an “adiposity rebound” when their BMI begins rising around age 6. Although BMI returns to earlier levels, a more reliable measure showed that body fat does not rebound at all.

AI can tell if your brain is aging faster than you are
A person’s sleeping brain may reveal warning signs of dementia long before memory problems begin. Researchers used machine learning to analyze EEG recordings from about 7,000 adults and found that an older-than-expected “brain age” was tied to a sharply higher dementia risk.
