Research published in the Journal of the American Heart Association reveals that many U.S. young adults have poor lifestyle factors and cardiometabolic diseases—such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension—with varying rates based on race and ethnicity.
. The prevalence of having ≥2 lifestyle risk factors was 45.2% and having ≥2 cardiometabolic diseases was 22.0%.
Rates of current smoking and excessive drinking were higher in white individuals than Hispanic and Asian individuals. White individuals had a lower prevalence of poor diet quality, inadequate physical activity, and inappropriate sleep duration than Black individuals. Asian individuals had the lowest prevalence of all lifestyle risk factors except for inadequate physical activity.were lower in white individuals than Black and Hispanic individuals.
Generally, individuals with a more favorable social risk factor profile—such as higher education, higher income, higher food security level, and with —had lower rates of lifestyle risk factors and cardiometabolic diseases. Racial and ethnic disparities in many cardiometabolic diseases persisted but lessened after adjusting for social risk factors and lifestyle factors.

Neuroscientists create new resource to improve Alzheimer's disease research modelsA new study by Indiana University School of Medicine researchers uses more genetically diverse mouse models to study the accumulation and spread of abnormal tau protein deposits in the brain—a known sign of Alzheimer's disease and several other neurodegenerative diseases. The study's findings, recently published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, could lead to better research models that improve understanding of how different genetic backgrounds influence neurodegenerative disease development and treatment needs.

Study identifies safest, most effective outpatient labor induction methodsWhile prior research and analysis have evaluated methods of outpatient labor induction (also known as cervical ripening), the specific approach with the highest efficacy and safety remains uncertain. More than a quarter of all labors in the United States required induction in 2018, according to the National Center for Health Statistics, and will likely continue to rise in the future. A new study by Mount Sinai researchers, published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, aims to identify the most effective and safest cervical ripening strategy.
