Targeting titin via RBM20 Exciting MOA Much better to first think of a well characterized cardiomyopathy before jumping into HFpEF. Such a tough group to phenotype well in multicenter trials. https://t.co/VeM1RTqBT0

A4: Yes. We have observational studies where individual outcomes are compared between: - Patients treated earlier in life vs those treated later - 1st degree relatives treated earlier in life vs those treated later Both demonstrate improved ASCVD risk when treatment starts early.
Q4: Can early identification and treatment alter the trajectory of risk in FH? Are there effective available combination therapies to treat people living with FH? #KnowFH

Great editorial! Sitting too long is the new smoking
📉 Cardiovascular mortality is rising again after decades of decline. 🪑 Sitting too long is harmful—even if you exercise regularly. 🧬 Sedentary behavior + genetic risk amplify cardiovascular disease. 🫀 Limiting sedentary time is essential. Read More:

@markinho_gc @chemachir @IcyfaSemi Sería interesante leer el full text. La RHCV es sin dudas el 5 pilar (puesto a pelear con Fe Carbox). El GRAN PROBLEMA: la RHCV no viene en comprimidos y su resultado pleno se ve recién al año. @DrMichaelShapir @robmentz @AGarzonaN 👨🏻⚕️🫀🇦🇷

I still remember during my cardiology residency when stents were a "contraindication" for performing a CT scan. In love with the new CT scanner in Hospital Metropolitano San José Costa Rica. #Non- invasive / safety first @ColletCarlos @hect2701 @MauroEchavPinto @SiemensHealth

Another @ronaldkarlsberg paper showing CCTA is superior to SPECT, especially in women. Why anyone still uses SPECT, especially in women, to diagnose CAD is beyond my understanding and the science. High radiation, low diagnostic accuracy. Time to move on https://t.co/zVPXYf8PJk

AI-powered CCTA is a viable alternative to SPECT for detecting myocardial ischemia in patients with low- to intermediate-risk coronary artery disease, with significant positive and negative correla...
