Cardiologists increasingly encounter cognitive frailty (cognitive impairment and physical frailty without dementia). Early diagnosis and intervention could reverse its course. #AHAJournals Naila Ijaz, MD @yasserj94 Ashok Krishnaswami Michael Nanna Abdulla A. Damluji, MD, PhD ahajrnls.org/3wnLRp9

High cardiac troponin levels post-ischemic stroke linked to cognitive impacts in attention/executive functions for up to 12 months, suggesting a tie to vascular cognitive impairment. #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/49Vduox

Having benefited from excellent mentors over the course of her career, a physician concludes that a true mentor is someone who has more imagination about you than you have about yourself. Read the full Perspective: nej.md/3SDFcPf

🥸How do you assess frailty in the CICU when frailty tools are mainly developed for outpatient settings? 😱We address this this question in this manuscript: 👇 Frailty in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit: Assessment and Impact: European Society of Cardiology Journals academic.oup.com/ehjacc/article…

Diving deep into frailty in the CCU: in our latest article in European Society of Cardiology Journals, we explore the impact of frailty, its assessment, outcomes and the path ahead in managing this cohort. ⬇️⬇️ academic.oup.com/ehjacc/article… Mohamad Bahij Moumneh Michael Nanna Ajar Kochar Naila Ijaz, MD

Frailty assessment in the CICU? We need to create and optimize machine-learning tools so that frailty is part of every patient’s assessment and readily available to see automatically, just as BMI is. What if we can visualize a patient’s frailty trend like this on EMR one day? 📈

In-depth look at outcomes & interventions, to inform assessment, management, resource utilization in frail patients during/after CICU admission Review in EHJ-ACC Abdulla A. Damluji, MD, PhD Michael Nanna Naila Ijaz, MD, et al academic.oup.com/ehjacc/advance…

SOA Reviews - effect of biological aging on CVD JACC Journals Family Series Abdulla A. Damluji, MD, PhD, et al on TAVR/comprehensive care in older adults in #JACCAdvances and #JACCInterventions Michael Nanna Mohamad Alkhouli jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

Physical activity appears to reduce CV risk in part by acting through stress-related brain activity; this may contribute to the novel observation that physical activity reduces CV risk to a greater extent among individuals with #depression. bit.ly/4d0wrYT #JACC

🥸 Interventions for frailty include: (1) physical exercise, yoga, tai chi; (2) nutrition; protein, vitamin D; (3) CGA and multidisciplinary team intervention; (4) Hormonal therapy. Naila Ijaz, MD summarized all the studies in Table 3 in JACC Journals 👇 jacc.org/doi/abs/10.101…

“Climb mountains not so the world can see you, but so you can see the world.” -David McCullough Jr

Congrats to our team on publishing this case of a patient presenting with cardioembolic CVA due to a right atrial myxoma. Jefferson Cardiology Fellows Thomas Jefferson University Jefferson GME jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

Join us tomorrow for the premiere of Episode 1 of our CPS (Cardiology Podcast Series ), in which we explore the critical aspects of preventive cardiovascular health in the South Asian population. Join us tomorrow at 12 PM EST. x.com/i/spaces/1LyGB…

Humbly requesting American College of Cardiology for next year’s annual meeting to not be held on Eid weekend! #ACC25

Thank you Abdulla A. Damluji, MD, PhD and Michael Nanna for your help with this viewpoint on the important goal of frailty prevention as a way to prevent CVD in our aging patient population

Healthy ageing in older adults with cardiovascular disease: European Society of Cardiology Journals 🥸 So proud of Nathalie, Jon & Kriti Kalra, MD, FACC for their hard work 😱 With my friend Michael Nanna in published in the European Heart Journal 🥸What is healthy aging? How do we achieve it? 👇👇👇

Grateful to Kamala Tamirisa MD for her #WIC talk on the Imposter Syndrome Some takeaways: 1. Don’t wait for the perfect CV- have a potential and growth mindset 2. Mentors will push you into growth areas (always grateful to my mentor, Abdulla A. Damluji, MD, PhD, for believing in me)

🥸2️⃣0️⃣ Conclusion: Cardiac amyloidosis is a treatable cause of heart failure in older adults. Frailty is not a barrier to care—it’s a call for tailored, multidisciplinary, patient-centered strategies. 😱 Ajar Kochar Michael Nanna Ariela Orkaby MD MPH Ashok Krishnaswami
