New research presented at #ESCCongress shows women without traditional risk factors but with high inflammation face higher lifetime heart risks. Recognizing these unique profiles is key to ensuring equitable patient outcomes. Read more: academic.oup.com/eur... #WomensHealth #CardioSky
Structured Graphical Abstract: Among 12 530 initially healthy American women with no standard modifiable risk factors, individuals with baseline levels of the inflammatory biomarker hsCRP > 3 mg/L had a 77% 30-year increased risk of coronary heart disease, a 39% 30-year increased risk of stroke, and a 52% 30-year increased risk of total cardiovascular events (left). In the JUPITER randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial, rosuvastatin 20 mg daily reduced major adverse cardiovascular events among such ‘SMuRF-less but inflamed’ individuals by 38% (HR 0.62, 95% CI 0.45-0.85, P = .003) (right)
