Mental health conditions, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse, depression and anxiety, can develop after people experience trauma. These conditions may contribute to a higher future risk of cardiovascular events, such as nonfatal heart attacks and strokes or cardiovascular death, according to new, independent research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association.
