Description
Mo Zhang and fourteen co-authors report a 2025 heart study based on a large community cohort. They tracked a blood marker of swelling in the body over time. The question was whether long exposure to high levels of the marker raises risk. The outcome they watched was a block in the heart's electric signals.
The study followed close to fifty thousand adults for about nine years on average. Just over eight hundred people developed a new conduction block in that time. Those with higher long term marker levels had a clearly higher risk after adjustments. The link grew in a straight line as the marker rose. The authors suggest that steady swelling over years may harm the heart's wiring.
