Tryptophan, IPA levels tied to lower mortality in coronary artery disease

02 Nov 2022

Levels of indole-3-propionic acid (IPA), a microbiota-produced tryptophan metabolite, and plasma tryptophan appear to contribute to a reduced risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), reveals a prospective study.

Abnormal myocardial blood flow reserve predicts death in heart transplant recipients

31 Oct 2022

Heart transplant recipients appear to be at an increased risk of mortality or retransplantation if they have abnormal myocardial blood flow reserve (MBFR), even in the absence of epicardial cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV), according to a study.
