Cardiology is the field of medicine that studies the heart. Besides anatomical factors, blood pressure and environmental risk factors all influence heart health and the ability to pump blood throughout the body.
Circulating metabolites predict coronary heart disease risk
Serum metabolites were associated with risk of coronary heart disease in a population-based cohort, with a comparable strength to classic risk factors.
Gut microbiota and statins
Metabolomics and 16S rRNA profiling uncover the crosstalk between gut microbiota and statins efficacy that can hide behind inter-individual variability.
Lipidomics in cardiac patients after the Fontan procedure
Lipidomics reveals long-term effects of palliative surgeries in Fontan patients after cardiac function is restored.
Metabolomics of acute heart failure
Acute and chronic heart failure can be studied using metabolomics. The metabolic phenotype (especially lipids/ amino acids) rapidly changes upon these condition
