Cardiac diseases represent common highly morbid conditions for which molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here we report the analysis of 1,459 protein measurements in 44,313 UK Biobank participants to characterize the circulating proteome associated with incident coronary artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation and aortic stenosis. Multivariable-adjusted Cox regression identified 820 protein-disease associations-including 441 proteins-at Bonferroni-adjusted P < 8.

Human babesiosis is a malaria-like illness caused by protozoan parasites of the genus . is responsible for most cases of human babesiosis in the United States, particularly in the Northeast and the Upper Midwest. is primarily transmitted to humans through the bite of infected deer ticks but also through the transfusion of blood components, particularly red blood cells.

Article Synopsis
  • Scientists studied blood proteins in over 44,000 people to understand heart diseases better.
  • They found 820 important protein links to conditions like heart failure and aortic stenosis, which could help create new treatments.
  • Their research showed that looking at these proteins can improve predictions for heart diseases more than just using regular health information.
