Great to see our new paper out : Apical Ischemia Is a Universal Feature of Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… James moon UCL Institute of Cardiovascular Science @BartsHospital fantastic work by RebeccaHughes showing ischemia is ubiquitous in “relative” and overt apical HCM

A wall thickness of 15mm reflects far greater hypertrophy at the apex than the base. Apical HCM can be reliably diagnosed with an indexed wall thickness less than you’d expect.

This week I had my PhD viva and am relieved to have passed with minor corrections. 6 years in the making - an amazing feeling to have it (nearly) done! Thank you to my examiners Juan Pablo Kaski & peter swoboda and of course to my fantastic supervisors James moon & Gabriella Captur UCL Institute of Cardiovascular Science

Very important work on apical hypertrophy definitions to be incorporated in further guidelines. 15 mm at the apex is far thicker than at the base, and lack of thickness tapering at apex might as well signify apical HCM. Bravo RebeccaHughes, James moon and team!

Well, that was fun. It was great debating Jeffrey Geske, MD on the wall thickness diagnosis in HCM. I think this meme (and the compelling data!) helped convince the crowd to move the line! #ACC2025 Hunain Shiwani James moon
