Kind: research · Impact: medium

## In brief

- Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine) identified four proteins in the blood.
- The proteins could potentially help identify people at higher risk of worsening cerebrovascular disease and cognitive decline, and of serious heart-related conditions.
- The available source text is truncated, so study size, methods and validation details are not confirmed here.

## Why it matters

If validated, a simple blood test based on these proteins could flag people at higher risk of brain and heart problems earlier.
