Mutations in blood stem cells do not necessarily have to result in leukaemia. It was only recently discovered that clones of mutated blood cells can be identified in many healthy people in old age. Nonetheless, clonal haematopoiesis, as scientists baptised this finding, is far from innocent. It is a formidable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases – on par with smoking, excess weight or high blood pressure. Why this is, is still a riddle to be solved.

Cardiovascular diseases are in fact frequently multi-causal. In addition to risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and nicotine abuse, genetic predispositions, family and social influences and environmental factors also play a role – as do mental illnesses and personality. A single factor normally only has a very small influence, but several ones can lead to illness through accumulation.
Since the risk factors are known, targeted prevention is possible. Unfortunately, health insurance companies often do not offer comprehensive prevention as part of standard service...
Heart and vessels form a highly complex organ system in which extremely diverse cells have to work together correctly to provide all organs with blood. In past decades, heart biology placed its focus on whole tissues or cell isolates. Now, however, new technologies allow the tracing of a diversity of cell types and their individual responses to signals down to the level of proteins and genes. Researchers hope this will help them better support the regeneration of diseased hearts.
In his widely acclaimed book “Das Kalte Herz” (The Cold Heart), economic historian Werner Plumpe tells the story of the history of capitalism, which in his view represents a sober form of economics which has proved itself superior and higher performing than other systems. To this day, the long tradition of capitalism criticism has not understood that in capitalism, great wealth is utilized to produce goods that are usually affordable for people with small incomes.
