Clinical Update in Women's Heart Disease.

The goal in selecting these recent articles was to help identify literature that may change the clinical practice of women's health for practitioners in the primary care setting. Articles were identified by reviewing high-impact medical and women's health journals, national guidelines, ACP JournalWise, and NEJM Journal Watch. In this clinical update, we selected recent publications relevant to the prevention, risk assessment, and diagnosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women. Breastfeeding now has data suggesting a robust reduction in subsequent CVD, and migraine with aura and severe and early- and late-onset hot flashes can now be considered risk factors for CVD. The decision to initiate menopausal hormone therapy is influenced by estimation of underlying vascular risk, and new data suggest that CVD risk scores are more accurate in predicting CVD risk than the traditionally used age and years since menopause and should be incorporated into counseling. Finally, new data support the growing belief that breast arterial calcification on mammography is a promising noninvasive marker that can enhance CVD risk prediction in women.
