1-month #DAPT duration was associated w/ similar total NACE & MACCE & reduced total 🩸 risk compared w/ prolonged DAPT. Findings support the use of an abbreviated duration of DAPT after #PCI in high 🩸 risk patients. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #EuroPCR #JACC Marco Valgimigli Dario Bongiovanni

Patients with heart failure and HFimpEF remain at high risk for cardiovascular events, but finerenone consistently reduces this risk without significant adverse effects. ja.ma/4jjmY0T orlyvardeny Muthu Vaduganathan Sanjiv J. Shah, MD Adriaan Voors clara saldarriaga

Cannot think of a more deserving person for this award - Beyond lucky to learn from my “HF clinic dad” Dr. Sallam!

South Asian individuals have greater CVD event rates and comprise 1 in 4 individuals worldwide. However, in our systematic review of 310 major CVD trials led by Nishu Uppal, only 3% of trial participants are South Asian individuals sciencedirect.com/science/articl… JACC Journals

#Dronedarone exhibited significantly lower rates of CV hospitalization & VAs compared w/ #sotalol. These findings provide real-world evidence to support selection of the most appropriate first-line AAD for rhythm control in pts w/ #AFib. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #JACCCEP

HFpEF is marked by elevated LV filling pressures due to diastolic dysfunction. This review explores how intrathoracic volume & pressure—affected by posture, gravity, obesity, & exercise—shape cardiac filling & highlight research gaps (link.springer.com/article/10.100…). Josephine Harrington, MD

Congrats to #StanDOM's Alex Sandhu & Jason Hom! With collaborators from Kaiser Permanente, Cedars-Sinai & Mass General Brigham, they secured a $5 million American Heart Association grant to advance #AI in #CardiovascularCare for better screening & treatment! k-p.li/4oyy2e5
