Abstract TP268: Xylitol, Xylose, and MicroRNAs Associated with Thrombosis and the Clotting Cascade in a Multi-Omics Cross-Sectional Study of Adults at Risk for Type 2 Diabetes and Stroke

Stroke Journal

MicroRNAs (miRs) have been associated with thrombosis and the blood clotting cascade and can provide additional insight about pathogenesis or biomarkers to help establish safe dietary intake guidelines. The mean BMI was 35.2 However, multiomics studies of both xylitol metabolites and these miRs in humans have not been done.

Physiology Friday #196: Resistance Training and Heart Health

Physiologically Speaking

Of course, these benefits can also extend to individuals with a BMI in the normal range. Furthermore, resistance training appears to improve arterial stiffness and endothelial function — two important prognostic indicators — and reduce inflammation (C-reactive protein) and blood clotting risk.

The First 60 Minutes of a Heart Attack: The Golden Hour

Wellnest

Three coronary arteries supply blood to the heart. When one of these arteries becomes completely blocked by a blood clot, it results in a heart attack, also known as MI (Myocardial infarction). Medical and Surgical Treatment in a Heart Attack An MI occurs when a blood clot entirely obstructs a blood artery in the heart.
