Study suggests microRNAs may connect inflammation with heart disease risk in obese people
Inflammation likely plays a role in the increased risk of heart disease that comes with obesity, but scientists don't fully understand how obesity leads to heart disease.Results from a new study suggest that small molecules known as microRNAs may be part of the pathway connecting inflammation with increased heart disease risk in obese people.The new findings will be presented at the American Physiological Society's Inflammation, Immunity and Cardiovascular Disease conference.MicroRNAs, molecules that are found throughout the body's tissues and fluids, such as blood, help regulate gene expression tied to health and disease.

No. 1 cause of death: Cancer is catching up to heart disease
Story highlights In 22 states, more people died from cancer than from heart disease during 2014Cancer is the leading cause of death for Asians, Pacific Islanders and HispanicsHeart disease kills more whites and blacks(CNN) More Americans die from heart disease, but cancer is rapidly gaining ground as the No.In 22 states, more people died from cancer during 2014 than from heart disease, new data from the National Vital Statistics System indicated.This is a substantial uptick from 2002, when only two states (Alaska and Minnesota) recorded more cancer deaths than heart disease deaths.This might be due to obesity, which is a risk factor for both heart disease and cancer, explained Dr. Paolo Boffetta, a professor of environmental medicine and public health at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, who was not involved in the study.

Cancer is on the brink of overtaking heart disease as number 1 American killer
Cancer is rapidly becoming the biggest killer of Americans, new figures show.In 2014, more people died from cancer than heart disease in 22 of 50 states.This number has soared since 2002, when only Alaska and Minnesota recorded more people dying of cancer than heart disease.Now, cancer kills more people in states such as California and areas such as New England.

Cancer surpasses heart disease as the leading cause of death in California and 21 other states
Cancer surpasses heart disease as the leading cause of death in California and 21 other states
Cancer has surpassed heart disease as the leading cause of death in California and 21 other states, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.That total is in stark contrast to the situation at the start of this century, when only two states — Alaska and Minnesota — lost more people to cancer than heart disease.And it's a huge departure from the situation in the 1950s, when the number of heart disease deaths was 2½ times bigger than the number of cancer fatalities.Nationwide, heart disease still edges out cancer as the top killer of Americans.
