Birth control pills may triple risk of cryptogenic stroke in women: Study

Taking birth control pills or combined oral contraceptives containing both oestrogen and progestin may triple the risk of cryptogenic stroke in young women, according to a study.

Despite its prevalence, the contribution of sex-specific risk factors, such as contraceptive use, has remained underexplored. The findings add to a growing body of evidence linking hormonal contraception to vascular risk in women of reproductive age. “Our findings confirm earlier evidence linking oral contraceptives to stroke risk,” said lead author Dr. Mine Sezgin, Department of Neurology, Istanbul University. “What’s particularly notable is that the association remains strong even...

Conservatives secure 2 more seats after tight federal election recounts

The Conservative Party of Canada came out victorious following federal election recounts in two ridings in Eastern Canada, both of which the Opposition won by only a handful of votes. After a recount process that took nearly two weeks, Elections Canada announced Friday that Conservative Jonathan Rowe had defeated Liberal Anthony Germain in the rural Newfoundland riding of Terra Nova—The Peninsulas by just 12 votes.The result reverses the first tally of the ballots after the April 28 election, which had Germain ahead by 12 votes.Rowe’s win gives the Conservatives 144 seats in the House of Commons, and brings the Liberals down to 169, which is three seats shy of the threshold for a majority government. The Bloc Quebecois has 22, the NDP has seven and the Green Party has one.In a video posted...
