Fasting blood samples collected at the time of the cardiopulmonary exercise test were used to assay obesity-related biomarkers. Our findings suggest that among the obesity-related biomarkers studied, higher levels of leptin and CRP are independently associated with increased odds of HFpEF, with odds ratios of 1.36 (95% CI, 1.09–1.70)

BackgroundThe renal sympathetic nervous system modulates systemic blood pressure, cardiac performance, and renal function. In addition, renal injury, oxidative stress, inflammation, and profibrotic biomarkers were evaluated to determine pathways associated with RDN.

Traditional tools like stethoscopes, blood pressure gauges, and electrocardiograms (ECG) are fundamental for standard diagnostic practices. Much of heart disease is linked to conditions like diabetes, obesity, or chronic kidney disease, and specific mutations in nucleic acids help identify them.

On one side, advocates of low-carbohydrate diets argue that cutting carbs, particularly in the form of sugars, is essential for weight management and metabolic health — pointing the rise of insulin resistance, obesity, and type 2 diabetes as evidence that our carbohydrate-laden diets are wreaking havoc on our bodies. No surprises here.

In a new study, evening exercise, but not morning exercise, reduced blood pressure, lowered sympathetic activity, and improved baroreflex sensitivity in a group of adults with treated hypertension. In one randomized controlled trial of adults with overweight and obesity, morning and afternoon exercise caused comparable weight loss.
