1. Medicare Card – Gene mutation points to new way to fight diabetes, obesity, heart disease Researchers say they have discovered a gene mutation that slows the metabolism of sugar in the gut, giving people who have the mutation a distinct advantage over those who do not. Those with the mutation have a lower risk of diabetes, obesity, heart failure, and even death. The researchers say their finding could provide the […]...
2. Medicare Card – Gum disease Researchers identify immune culprits linked to inflammation and bone loss in gum disease An unhealthy population of microbes in the mouth triggers specialized immune cells that inflame and destroy tissues, leading to the type of bone loss associated with a severe form of gum disease, according to a new study in mice and humans. The […]...
3. Medicare Card, Gene hastens kidney disease progression in African-Americans A gene variant common in African-Americans predicts that people with that gene who also have chronic kidney disease (CKD) are twice as likely to progress to kidney failure as African-Americans without the high-risk gene and white people with CKD. People with the high-risk gene also tend to lose kidney function at twice the rate of […]...

11. Medicare Card, NIH-funded study examines frequency of follow-up bone mineral density tests Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mass and bone strength leading to an increased risk of fractures. Although health care professionals have long known that low bone mineral density (BMD) is an important risk factor for bone fractures, questions have remained about how often BMD should be measured. Scientists at the Institute for Aging Research […]...
12. Medicare Card, According to a Large Study, Men with HIV Are at Increased Risk for Heart Disease The buildup of soft plaque in arteries that nourish the heart is more common and extensive in HIV-infected men than HIV-uninfected men, independent of established cardiovascular disease risk factors, according to a new study by National Institutes of Health grantees. The findings suggest that HIV-infected men are at greater risk for a heart attack than […]...
