Nappingto a Healthier Heart?
1. Researchers say they have developed a simpletest that can tell if a person with heart disease is likely to suffer a heartattack2. The test measures levels of a protein in the blood. The researcherssay people with high levels of this protein are at high risk of heart attack,heart failure3 or stroke.
2. Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo of the University ofCalifornia in San Francisco led the team. For about four years, they studiedalmost one thousand patients with heart disease. The researchers tested theheart disease patients for a protein called NT-proBNP4. Patients with thehighest levels were nearly eight times more likely than those with the lowestlevels to have a heart attack, heart failure or stroke.
3. The researchers say the presence of highlevels of the protein in the blood shows that the heart muscle is underpressure in some way. The study involved mostly men, so the researchers couldnot say for sure5 that the results are also true for women. They say thepatients with the highest levels of NT-proBNP were older and had other problemslike diabetes or high blood pressure.
4. Other researchers say more studies areneeded to confirm if knowing the protein levels of a heart patient shouldaffect that person’s treatment. They also would like toknow if more aggressive treatment6 could reduce the patient’schance of a heart attack or stroke. The study appeared in the Journal of theAmerican Medical Association7.
5. Could a little sleep during the middle ofthe day reduce the risk of a heart attack? An unrelated study earlier thismonth in the Archives of Internal Medicine8 suggests that the answer may beyes. In countries like the United States, afternoon naps are mostly forchildren. But they are common for adults in Mediterranean countries. And thesecountries generally have lower rates of heart disease. So scientists in theUnited States and Greece wondered if naps could play a part. Twenty-threethousand healthy adults took part in the study by Harvard University and theUniversity of Athens9. Those who took thirty-minute naps three times a week hada thirty-seven percent lower risk of death from heart problems than people whodid not take naps.
6. The researchers say napping may improveheart health by reducing stress. They say the research suggests that naps areespecially good for working men. But they say not enough female subjects diedduring the study to judge the benefits for women.
