I've found over the years that one measure of a successful life is a dozen people waiting for the doc at 4am after a heart attack...

AHA names biggest advances in CV research for 2024 #CardioSky #MedSky @ahascience.bsky.social @ahajournals.bsky.social @americanheart.bsky.social spr.ly/6013QiHaz

Looking for reviewers before Christmas

Clinicians, your voice matters! 🩺 @JACCJournals & @US_FDA are teaming up to tackle urgent evidence gaps in cardiovascular care. Share the key questions you face in practice about FDA-regulated products and help shape the future of research. www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...

Yes, yes, that’s *definitely the way to handle this

Very nice viewpoint from @dranulala.bsky.social who walks the walk www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/... @jaccjournals.bsky.social #JACCAdv

For those who are curious, #umich comes in at “slightly below average” on the ranking system discussed in this article. www.thefire.org/colleges/uni...

Yeah, let's go ahead and cut all Veteran's Affairs health care. See how that works out.

last night, Hallie Prescott had her NEJM review on sepsis released: www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.... Today I had the pleasure of giving some remarks on her installation as the Toews Family Legacy Professor at the University of Michigan

"Everything changed when the happy blue bird became the angry X," shares @erinmichos.bsky.social regarding her experience with Twitter over the past few years. Michos and others share why they are abandoning Twitter and turning to @bsky.app instead. Read the full story: tctmd.com/news/once-bu...

Text message reminders targeting patients who delay refilling their cardiovascular medications did not improve medication adherence based on pharmacy refill data or reduce clinical events at 12 months. ja.ma/4irtinM

92 percent of submitted major investigator initiated research rejected Does that seem sustainable?

Dr. Wenger: "I think the history is really important." She's right. Not only do we stand on the shoulders of giants, but we're often surprised that "what is old, is new again!" Check out our posts & videos on Twitter/X** about interventional cardiology w hashtag #AngioHistory (**see comment)

There is a metaphor here somewhere

Welcome to the least productive week of the year.

An I.V.F. Mix-Up, a Shocking Discovery and an Unbearable Choice Two couples in California discovered they were raising each other’s genetic children. Should they switch their girls? @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2024/11/25/m...

Remember new users are coming on daily, unsure of engagement. The more posts you like and reply to, the strong the platform becomes !

You don’t have to know exactly what the future holds to know that some people will handle it better than others.

Cardiology is famous for its silly trial names. TOPHAT, PLATO, GUSTO, AIMHIGH, COURAGE, FAME 🧵 My fave has always been a lovely cohort study from the US that looked at why South Asians get so much heart disease Mediators of Atherosclerosis in South Asians Living in America Aka the MASALA study☺️

Sitting here with a big smile on my face thinking about my first year med school class that taught us how to keep patients sick in order to maximize profits.

#OnePride shows up 🙌 📍 Indianapolis

ICYMI here are results from all 29 LBS presentations at #AHA24 Missed them? Check them out on Scientific Sessions OnDemand coming in early December.

Wow I didn’t know Ken Burns made a film about one of my obsessions. The very first video I ever posted online was about Leonardo’s mind blowing observation & (accurate) prediction about how the heart works @kenlburns.bsky.social mentions foot surgs but Leo’s anatomical work inspires many doctors

The @tctmd.bsky.social news team is wrapping up our coverage of #AHA24 with still a few more stories to come. Catch up with all of our coverage here: www.tctmd.com/conference/a...

Authorship proliferation has created an environment where many now stay close enough for credit yet far enough from blame... bsky.app/profile/iwas...

“In one study, academics who had worked on jointly authored research papers were asked what fraction of the team’s output their own work accounted for. On the average four-person team, the sum of the claimed credit was 140%.” ~ Robert Wright (2017) Why Buddhism… page 84

“We're learning that maybe we have more influence over our patients than we sometimes think,” explains Mina Chung at #AHA24. TRIM-AF data presented last week found that lifestyle and risk factor management does impact AF burden over time. www.tctmd.com/news/lifesty... #cardiosky

How important is it who the corresponding author is on a paper? @iwashyna.bsky.social @hswapnil.bsky.social @boback.bsky.social

Academic fraud in psychology studies www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

“Echocardiography is the ideal place to use AI,” comments David Ouyang. At #AHA24, two new studies added further evidence in support of AI’s potential to transform the echocardiology landscape. For all the details on the study presentations: tctmd.com/news/ai-pois... @rohankhera.bsky.social

Its back! Ten current papers for the curious cardiologist, including BP targets in T2DM, spiro post MI, left atrial appendage occlusion, coronary sinus reducer for angina, device detected AF & tirzepatide in HFpEF #CardioSky 1/11

Fantastic presentation from Mina Chung on the results of the TRIM-AF study. RFM +/- Metformin had benefit in symptoms but no benefit on AF burden.

A new collaboration between the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) & the American Heart Association's flagship journal Circulation was just announced. Starting in early 2025, research authors can select a seamless transfer of their manuscript between @NEJM & @CircAHA #AHA24

At #AHA24, Dr. Nanette Wenger reminds us we’re all ‘standing on the shoulders of giants’ in healthcare. As we celebrate 100 years of Scientific Sessions, we honor the pioneers who paved the way and look ahead to a new century of innovation.

Left atrial appendage closure (Watchman device) randomized trial vs blood thinners after ablation for atrial fibrillation Significantly reduced major bleeding events and no increase in stroke, embolism or death www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

It's high time for some laughter medicine With the Glaucomfleckens @glaucomflecken.bsky.social @lglaucomflecken.bsky.social In the new Ground Truths podcast erictopol.substack.com/p/the-glauco... [open-access, no ads, free to subscribe]

Another GLP-1 drug success. Tirzepatide in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) with longer term follow-up than 2 previous trials with semaglutide nejm.org/doi/full/10.... in people with BMI >30; no data yet for HFpEF in people without obesity

#AHA24 officially opened by @dramitkhera.bsky.social The theme is HOPE! Which is perfect for these 100 years of @ahascience.bsky.social 🎆

The 2024 @NanetteWenger Award goes this year to Dr. Shah 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Congratulations

A large randomized trial in people with Type 2 diabetes showed intensive BP lowering (systolic < 120 mm Hg) reduced major cardiovascular outcomes www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

Packed room for the #AHA24 Scientific Sessions! Lots of good energy here. With Program Chair @dramitkhera.bsky.social and @ahascience.bsky.social . #CardioSky

My colleagues and I will be sharing all the happenings from #AHA24 so that all those here in person know what sessions to check out and for those at home, to inspire you to come along next time!

Happy to see this new Bluesky account of #AHA journals - just in time for Scientific Sessions 2024! @dramitkhera.bsky.social @drmarthagulati.bsky.social @erictopol.bsky.social @anastasiasmihaili.bsky.social @hmkyale.bsky.social @jkhmd.bsky.social @vietheartpa.bsky.social @ahajournals.bsky.social
