Описание: In this week’s HeartBrief, preventive cardiologist Dr. Joel Kahn reviews three timely studies shaping cardiovascular prevention. First, a large UK Biobank analysis links long-term statin use with greater declines in muscle strength and lean mass over time—an association that underscores the importance of monitoring musculoskeletal health and reinforcing strength training, dose optimization, and supportive strategies in statin users. Next, data from the Diabetes Prevention Program and a landmark Chinese cohort show that achieving prediabetes remission is associated with decades-long reductions in cardiovascular events and heart failure, reframing remission itself as a powerful prevention target. Finally, a classic Circulation study highlights the holidays as a peak risk period for cardiac death, driven by cold exposure, stress, diet, and exertion—prompting a timely reminder to take precautions during winter weather and seasonal activities.
