Heart Attack Risk Halved In Adults With Heart Disease Taking Tailored Vitamin D Doses

November 9, 2025Research Highlights: Adults with heart disease prescribed vitamin D in doses tailored to reach blood levels considered optimal for heart health (>40-80 ng/mL) had a reduced risk of heart attack by more than half (52%) compared to those who did not receive monitoring of vitamin D levels. 85% of all study participants had vitamin D levels below 40 ng/mL at enrollment, and nearly 52% of people in the treatment group needed to take more than 5,000 IU of vitamin D each day (more than six times the 800 IU daily value established by the FDA) to reach target blood levels of 40-80 ng/mL.


Cup Of Coffee A Day May Not Be Harmful For Some Adults With AFib And Could Lower Episodes

November 9, 2025Research Highlights: During the 6 months after treatment to restore a normal heart rhythm, adults with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who were randomly assigned to drink coffee every day were 39% less likely to have a recurrence of AFib compared to participants assigned to not have any coffee or other caffeinated drinks. The results of the 200-person trial may challenge the common belief that caffeine may spur more abnormal heart rhythms such as AFib.


Diabetes Drug Reduced Irregular Heartbeat Events In Overweight/obese Adults With AFib

November 9, 2025Research Highlights: Adults with atrial fibrillation and obesity/overweight (but no diabetes) who took the diabetes medication metformin after a rhythm correction procedure were more likely to stay free of AFib episodes for a year. Weight loss was not thought to be the main reason metformin helped, since there was only a modest weight change among those taking the medication.


Earlier Blood Transfusion May Reduce Heart Failure, Arrhythmia In Adults With Heart Disease

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: Earlier blood transfusion after major surgery – when hemoglobin was below 10 g/dL rather than beow 7 g/dl - did not affect the risk of severe complications, such as death, heart attack, need for a heart procedure, kidney failure or stroke. However, the timing of the blood transfusion may be associated with a lower risk of irregular heartbeat and heart failure among people with heart disease, according to a new study of U.


Medication Still Better Than Procedure For Some Irregular Heartbeat Conditions

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: Standard care, which included medication for those eligible, was better than a promising minimally invasive procedure for people with irregular heart rhythms who had high stroke and bleeding risk. The procedure seals off a small pouch of heart tissue, where most blood clots form in people with irregular heartbeat.


One Month Of Clot Prevention After A Stent Was As Effective As Year-long Course For AFib

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: A one-month course of dual clot-preventing therapy followed by a single clot-prevention medication for the remainder of the standard 12-month regimen in adults with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who received a coronary stent was as effective as one year of continuous dual therapy for preventing stroke, heart attack and death. Participants treated with the one-month regimen experienced fewer bleeding problems than those in the year-long dual-treatment group.


Investigational Daily Pill Lowered Bad Cholesterol As Much As Injectables

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: For people who have experienced a heart attack or stroke, or who are at high risk of one and need further cholesterol lowering, a new daily pill may be a more convenient yet similarly effective option to injectable therapies. The oral medication, enlicitide, lowered LDL cholesterol by up to 60% and could eventually offer an option for people whose LDL levels remain above goal despite lifestyle changes and standard cholesterol medications like statins.


PCSK9 Inhibitor Reduced Major CVD Events In Adults With No Prior Heart Attack Or Stroke

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: Results from the international VESALIUS-CV (TIMI 66) clinical trial found that among adults with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or diabetes and no history of a prior heart attack or stroke, the PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab reduced the risk of coronary heart disease death, heart attack, or ischemic stroke by 25%. Participants taking evolocumab also had a 19% reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease death, heart attack, ischemic stroke or arterial revascularization over a median of more than four and a half years follow-up.


First-In-Human Trial Of CRISPR Gene-Editing Therapy Safely Lowered Cholesterol, Triglycerides

November 8, 2025Research Highlights: In a Phase 1, first-in-human trial, a one-time infusion of an investigational CRISPR-Cas9 therapy targeting angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) was safe and reduced LDL cholesterol by nearly 50% and reduced triglycerides by about 55%. Cholesterol and triglyceride levels began to drop within the two weeks after treatment, with effects sustained for at least 60 days of follow-up.
