New research confirms that COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective at reducing the cardiovascular complications that are a hallmark of COVID-19 infection.
La myocardite consécutive à la vaccination contre la Covid-19 est rare, et les conséquences peu graves. Le risque de lésions cardiaques plus lourdes est tout autre en cas d'infection au Covid-19.
Myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination is rare, and the risk is much smaller than the risks of cardiac injury linked to COVID-19 itself.
Une recherche sur les souris montre que l'œstrogénothérapie substitutive a le plus de chances de réduire le risque de maladie cardiovasculaire si elle est amorcée peu après la ménopause.
Research in mice shows that estrogen replacement therapy has the greatest chance of reducing cardiovascular disease risk if it is begun soon after menopause.
Sexismo en la investigación cardiovascular significa que los ataques cardíacos a menudo se pasan por alto en las mujeres. Y que ellas tienen menos probabilidades que los hombres de recibir el tratamiento adecuado.
Le sexisme dans la recherche cardiovasculaire conduise à une méconnaissance de la crise cardiaque chez les femmes. Elles profitent moins des thérapies, interventions et possibilités de réadaptation.
Sexism in cardiovascular research means that heart attacks are often missed in women. And that women are less likely to receive recommended therapies and rehabilitation opportunities.
Your risk of a heart attack increases 600 per cent within a week of catching the flu. The flu shot decreases that risk, whether you catch the flu or not.
