Relation of Cardiovascular Risk Factors to Mortality and Cardiovascular Events in Hospitalized Patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (From the Yale COVID-19 Cardiovascular Registry)
Individuals with established cardiovascular disease or a high burden of cardiovascular risk factors may be particularly vulnerable to develop complications from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We conducted a prospective cohort study at a tertiary care center to identify risk factors for in-hospital mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, new acute decompensated heart failure, venous thromboembolism, ventricular or atrial arrhythmia, pericardial effusion, or aborted cardiac arrest) among consecutively hospitalized adults with COVID-19, using multivariable b...

Heat and the Heart
Yale J Biol Med. 2023 Jun 30;96(2):197-203. doi: 10.59249/HGAL4894. eCollection 2023 Jun.ABSTRACTGlobally, more people die from cardiovascular disease than any other cause. Extreme heat can have serious implications for heart health, especially in people with pre-existing cardiovascular conditions. In this review, we examined the relationship between heat and the leading causes of cardiovascular diseases as well as the proposed physiological mechanisms for the deleterious effect of heat on the heart. The body's response to high temperatures, including dehydration, increased metabolic demand, hypercoagulability, electrolyte...
