Brain calcification can cause movement disorders and cognitive impairment. Researchers at the Arnesen Lab at UiB have now identified a gene that provides new insight into how these calcifications ...

A recent research letter published in the journal Nature Cardiovascular Research describes two new genetic loci associated with coronary artery calcification (CAC). CAC is a measure of atherosclerosis ...

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body and is always present in your bloodstream. It’s crucial for the health of your muscles, nervous system, blood circulation, and digestion. But unwanted ...

A new study published suggests that the connection between coronary artery calcification—a measure of calcium buildup in the arteries—and bone mineral density may be driven in part by shared genetic ...

Mammographic calcifications, a common feature of breast cancer, have remained enigmatic in terms of their molecular underpinnings and clinical implications, particularly in the hormone ...
