Mashup Score: 0Lipoprotein(a): What to know about elevated levels | NHLBI, NIH - 4 month(s) ago
Lp(a) is a type of lipid, or fat, in the body that contains and is similar in structure to low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often thought of as “bad cholesterol.” Like LDL cholesterol, Lp(a) deposits cholesterol in the arteries and can show up in plaque. It’s also found in cells that line small blood vessels and in tissues where regeneration and healing occur. Elevated Lp(a) levels are a cardiovascular disease risk factor.

Mashup Score: 7Watching Lungs Work Through a Crystal Ribcage | NHLBI, NIH - 5 month(s) ago
NHLBI-funded researcher have developed echnology for studying the lung ex vivo – or outside of the body – while it is still breathing and supplied with a blood supply. The technology relies on a never-before-seen protective shield called the crystal ribcage, a clear structure that has similar properties of the lab mouse ribcage and allows researchers to image the lung in real time.

Mashup Score: 1Chronic sleep deficiency increases insulin resistance in women, especially postmenopausal women | NHLBI, NIH - 6 month(s) ago
Chronic insufficient sleep can increase insulin resistance in otherwise healthy women, with more marked effects in postmenopausal women, according to a new study. The findings highlight the importance of adequate sleep in minimizing the risk for type 2 diabetes, which can develop when the body fails to effectively use a key hormone, insulin, to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
