Family history of early cardiac events in first degree relatives such as a parent or sibling is a major risk factor, especially for premature events. Currently, data on risks in close relatives of patients with a family history of premature heart attacks, chronic stable angina or peripheral vascular disease are sparse.
Researchers from Florida Atlantic University s Schmidt College of Medicine in collaboration with an international team of leading scientists in Italy, the United Kingdom and Poland, assembled a consecutive series of 230 patients with premature onset of heart attacks, strokes, angina or peripheral artery disease and a comparison group of apparently healthy men and women during a 24-month period. The comparison group had no family

THE SURGE in coronavirus cases in January hit key services including cancer and even routine surgery, NHS England figures released on Thursday exposed.
Over the last decade the Tories have declared war on the NHS, closing A&Es, maternity services, childrenâs departments; even entire hospitals have shut down.
Tory cuts have created the situation where the NHS has been stretched to breaking point, and with the lack of preparation for subsequent waves of Covid-19, hospitals have had to strip back their operations to concentrate on dealing with the pandemic.
Less than half the expected number of operations have been done, pushing the waiting list to a record high of 4.6m. More than 300,000 of those on the list have been waiting for more than a year for treatment, compared to 1,600 before the pandemic began. Surgeons describe this as a dire situation which will take a long time to turn around.
