Congratulations to our incredible residents on their amazing fellowship match!! We are so proud of you!! #elmhurstmedicine #fellowshipmatch 🤩👏🏼👏🏼

Happy to attend the American College of Cardiology NY chapter Young Investigators meeting + Medical Shark Tank event representing the Elmhurst Internal Medicine Residency team w/ my senior Avery Hum. Great learning opportunity in a very different format. #MedTwitter #cardiology #sharktank #medicine

Just published in The American Journal of the Medical Sciences! Led by Annie Cotton, our cross-sectional study explores the link between a social vulnerability index and cardio-kidney-metabolic syndrome all-cause mortality in the US. shorturl.at/pTmQH

Our new study @EurJPC: Deep learning + Google Street View 🏙️🔍 reveal how built environment affects CV risk ❤️🫀. Higher tree-sky index 🌳☁️ & sidewalk presence 🚶‍♂️🏃‍♀️ linked to lower MACE risk! 📉 led by superstar Zhuo Chen 📖 Read more in doi.org/10.1093/eurjpc…

Worth the read!

1/ New Study: Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) 🫀 are independently and additively associated with cardiovascular events. Key takeaway: Tackling social and biological risks is crucial! #Cardiology #HealthEquity #Research

Social vulnerability matters in cardiovascular risk! Our study in CircImaging shows that the Social Vulnerability Index modifies the impact of coronary artery calcium scores on major adverse cardiovascular events in a cohort of ~49k patients. Read here: shorturl.at/NzapE

🌳🚶‍♂️❤️ How walkable is your neighborhood? Our latest narrative review article (from the Elmhurst Internal Medicine Residency Cardio Research Team) explores the connection between neighborhood walkability and CKM Syndrome. Read here: shorturl.at/3wd1d

Do geospatial data (social+environmental) improve CVD risk stratification? Read our paper AJPC led by Zhuo Chen showing that a novel, composite Socio-Environmental Risk Score, is additive to CAC for MACE prediction. doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpc… Time to incorporate in EHR

Happy to attend ACC for the first time. #ACC25 . Today’s artificial intelligence track was truly a highlight.

Glad to present on RHD projections at #ACC25. Though uncommon in the US, RHD remains a significant burden in my home country (Brazil). Grateful to have Dr. Bruno Nascimento and Dr. Salil Deo as co-corresponding authors on this important work.

Wrapping up an amazing #ACC25! Grateful to have collaborated in 4 projects, reconnected with friends and mentors, and even squeezed in a blues concert. Looking forward to #ACC26! American College of Cardiology

Climate vulnerability isn’t uniform, and neither is its health impact. Our new study in JAHA links it to cardio-kidney-metabolic disease burden across U.S. counties. Full article -> shorturl.at/gvQ7y

There is increased risk for #MACE in patients with higher #SocialVulnerability regardless of #CoronaryArteryCalcium score.

Led by Antoinette Cotton, we forecasted atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease burden in South Asia Until 2040. Read the full article 👇 shorturl.at/AYhxt #JACCAsia #Cardiology

Excited to share the accompanying JACC Asia editorial for our paper: “Forecasting Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease in South Asia Until 2040: A Bayesian Modeling Approach.” 🔗 shorturl.at/bcLU0 #Cardiology #GlobalHealth #Epidemiology #JACCAsia #ASCVD #SouthAsia
