Healthy Lifestyle and Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential: Results From the Women's Health Initiative.

TLDR
The presence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with a higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, cancer, and mortality as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
Background Presence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with a higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, cancer, and mortality. The relationship bet...

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP): Linking somatic mutations, hematopoiesis, chronic inflammation and cardiovascular disease

TL;DR: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is associated with a pro-inflammatory state that has been linked to coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and venous thromboembolic disease, as well as prognosis among those with aortic stenosis and heart failure.

Association of Diet Quality With Prevalence of Clonal Hematopoiesis and Adverse Cardiovascular Events

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether there is an association between diet quality and the prevalence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), the expansion of somatic leukemogenic variations in hepatopoietic stem cells, has been associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clonal hematopoiesis: Mutation-specific adaptation to environmental change.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss how environmental contexts associated with CHIP, such as old age, infections, chemotherapy, or cigarette smoking, alter tissue microenvironments to facilitate the selection and expansion of specific CHIP mutant clones.

Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease: The Emerging Role of Inflammation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the etiology and pathogenesis of inflammation in obesity associated metabolic disease as well as CVD are reviewed and the available data suggests that anti-inflammatory treatments can be used to reduce CVD, but off-target effects such as increased infection have precluded its broad therapeutic application to date.

Risks and benefits of estrogen plus progestin in healthy postmenopausal women: Principal results from the Women's Health Initiative randomized controlled trial

TL;DR: Overall health risks exceeded benefits from use of combined estrogen plus progestin for an average 5.2-year follow-up among healthy postmenopausal US women, and the results indicate that this regimen should not be initiated or continued for primary prevention of CHD.

Age-Related Clonal Hematopoiesis Associated with Adverse Outcomes

TL;DR: Age-related clonal hematopoiesis is a common condition that is associated with increases in the risk of hematologic cancer and in all-cause mortality, with the latter possibly due to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
