research The Relation Between the Severity of Androgenetic Alopecia and Cardiovascular Atherosclerosis Measured via Carotid Intima-Media Thickness and the SYNTAX Score
Severe hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is linked to higher risk of heart disease (cardiovascular atherosclerosis).
research Repurposing of Approved Cardiovascular Drugs
Some heart drugs show promise for other conditions, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Protective Cardiovascular and Renal Actions of Vitamin D and Estrogen
Vitamin D and estrogen may help protect heart and kidney health, and maintaining sufficient vitamin D levels could be especially beneficial for African Americans, postmenopausal women, and people with chronic kidney disease.

Balding men have higher heart disease risk.
research New Populations with Increased Cardiovascular Risk: Cardiovascular Disease in Dermatological Conditions
Some skin conditions may increase the risk of heart disease, but are not yet included in cardiovascular prevention guidelines.
research Reporting on Adverse Clinical Events
Some medications and supplements can cause serious side effects, including hair loss, heart rhythm problems, liver injury, and other health issues.
research Possible Contribution of Chronobiology to Cardiovascular Health
Understanding and tracking our body's natural daily rhythms could help improve heart health.
research Elevated Fasting Insulin Is Associated With Cardiovascular and Metabolic Risk in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
High fasting insulin levels in women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of heart and metabolic problems.
research Interactions Between Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Cardiovascular Risk Factors Determine Distinct Patterns of Erectile Dysfunction: A Latent Class Analysis
Men's age, urinary symptoms, and heart health risks create different types of erectile dysfunction.
research Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, and Incident Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality in the Cardiovascular Health Study
DHT may increase the risk of heart disease and death in elderly men.
research Calcineurin-Based Immunosuppression in Renal Transplantation: Focus on Efficacy, the Role of Steroids, and Cardiovascular Risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Cardiovascular Disease-Associated Skin Conditions
Some skin conditions may increase the risk of heart disease, and understanding their connection could lead to better treatments.
research Adverse Events in Patients Treated With Jak-Inhibitors for Alopecia Areata: A Systematic Review
JAK-inhibitors for alopecia areata are generally safe with mostly mild side effects and a low rate of treatment withdrawal.
research Testosterone Therapy for Transgender Men: Effects and Safety
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Age-Related Differences in the Reproductive and Metabolic Implications of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Findings in an Obese, United States Population
Older obese women with PCOS have higher cardiovascular and metabolic risks despite lower androgen levels.
research Cardiovascular Safety and Benefits of Testosterone Implant Therapy in Postmenopausal Women: Where Are We?
Testosterone therapy for postmenopausal women appears safe and may protect against heart disease, but requires constant monitoring and more research for long-term effects.
research Effects of 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
5-alpha reductase inhibitors can cause sexual, neurologic, endocrine, and cardiovascular side effects, but these are rare and usually stop after ending treatment.
research Lean Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS in lean women is a serious health condition with implications beyond fertility, affecting metabolism and increasing cardiovascular disease risk.
research Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Selected Cutaneous Diseases
Skin diseases like psoriasis, lupus, and others can increase heart disease risk due to factors like chronic inflammation and genetic susceptibility.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Traditional Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Metabolic Syndrome, and Component Traits Among Nigerian Adults
Hair loss in adults is linked to heart disease risk factors like unhealthy blood fats, lack of exercise, and alcohol use. It's also slightly more common in people with metabolic syndrome. As people age, hair loss gets worse. In men, severe hair loss is tied to high blood pressure and a larger waist. In women, it's tied to higher body weight. People with hair loss should be checked for unhealthy blood fats and advised to avoid alcohol and inactivity.
research Genetic Predictors of Testosterone and Their Associations with Cardiovascular Disease and Risk Factors: A Mendelian Randomization Investigation
Testosterone is linked to cardiovascular risk factors and stroke, but its exact role is unclear.
research Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia Using High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Lipoprotein A
People with androgenetic alopecia have a higher risk of heart disease.
research Sex Hormones and Sarcopenia in Older Persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
