It found that shame partially explained the relationship between hairpulling and depression, and fully explained the relationship between hairpulling and anxiety.

People in their thirties may risk a heart attack or stroke in later life even when they have 'normal' blood pressure, if it's too high or steeply rising, according to a new study led by UCL researchers.

A new treatment for high blood pressure can provide continuous, round-the-clock blood pressure control for people whose condition is hard to treat, according to a global study led by a UCL professor. The treatment, baxdrostat, works by reducing levels of aldosterone, a hormone that can drive high blood pressure in some people.

A three-month programme of resistance exercise can help improve the physical and mental wellbeing of people with long covid, according to newly published research. The results - which are part of a study led by the University of Glasgow in collaboration with NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde, the University of Dundee and NHS Tayside - highlight the importance of manageable exercise after a serious COVID-19 infection.
