    This study was conducted to understand why leading up to the infamous 2016 election, though Clinton was on the road winning, the pronouns "he" and "they" were being used instead of "she".

After moving into the Oval Office, one of the first things that…" (those in the UK question were respective to their own situation). Most in the UK used the pronoun "she".

    This article reveals a new connection between stress and recurring heart attacks. As we get older, it is inevitable that our body will start to suffer from things like heart attacks. We know a lot of different ways to prevent heart attacks like limiting stress and staying healthy. However, sometimes things happen and if one did suffer from a heart attack, what you do after is extremely important. This study states that 5 years after a heart attack 80 out of 283 patients had another heart attack or a stroke and were hospitalized for heart failure or died. In addition, around 47% of the patients suffered from high distress, leading to the conclusion that high stress can result in later heart attacks. The article concludes with the advice of psychological assessments (especially among younger patients) after a heart attack to minimize distress.
