Genetic signs of sudden cardiac arrest identified
In Novosibirsk, at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the cause of sudden cardiac arrest was found. It is reported by “NDN.info”.
Death can occur in a person who outwardly looks completely healthy. Cardiac arrest occurs in men twice as often as in women. Only about 6% of patients can be saved. These were mainly the people who were in the hospital.
There are many reasons for sudden cardiac arrest. There is also a genetic factor among them. Scientists from Novosibirsk were able to identify markers of predisposition to this condition at the genetic level. This knowledge will help you start prevention in time and avoid this condition.
More research is now planned on this discovery.
Earlier, Austrian biologists have grown a micro-heart that can beat. Its size is comparable to a sesame seed, but it can pulsate like a real organ.
