Blood Tests Identify Women's Heart Disease Risk Decades in Advance

Study highlights the predictive power of three biomarkers for early cardiovascular risk detection in women.

Researchers followed nearly 40,000 women for 30 years, measuring LDL, CRP, and LP(a) levels.
High levels of these biomarkers were strongly linked to increased risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Women with the highest biomarker levels had up to four times the risk of major cardiovascular events.
Experts call for routine screening of these biomarkers to improve early detection and treatment.
The study underscores the need to address cardiovascular risk in women much earlier in life.
