@anish_koka Just because it’s free doesn’t mean it’s accessible. We need to stop trying to condense these difficult issues into soundbites and or clickbait. That’s why we continue to go in circles. Lack of access is a very multifaceted problem that requires us to shed dogmas to address

@Hragy The problem is we never get used to the punches and they seem to hurt harder every time. Take some time to breathe and heal. Another battle is around the corner. You’ll bounce back, wiser, if that’s even possible.

Pressure to publish jumps. And researchers have no time to do science. (New survey from Elsevier) Survey of 3200 researchers: 1. Only 45% of scientists have sufficient time for actual research. 2. For 68%, the pressure to publish today is greater than 2-3 years ago. 3. 29% of

If you can get your LDL < 55 naturally. Good for you. If you can’t, and you have ASCVD or DM - start with a statin. Maximize intensity to balance tolerance. If you’ve had an MI, start a statin anyhow. This is what a good doctor would recommend.
If your doctor has relentlessly advocated for STATIN medications, but has never even ONCE asked you about how much sugar you eat… then I’m afraid you probably don’t have a very good doctor

Poor @VietHeartPA gets forced to do these crazy things with me. I wrote this silly rap about #SharedDecisionMaking & made him do this with me. All blame resides on me. But let’s do more SDM with our patients Read more at: 📎 https://t.co/wD2KCU1au2 📎 https://t.co/hKQRs7bxNb

@RodrigoBagur @mmamas1973 I don’t think that the observational study at the top of this thread contributes any meaningful information to the treatment decision because of its obvious flaws. 1/x

Unless there are fundamental comorbidities that preclude surgery such young patients shouldn't be having TAVIs. Sure we can do such procedures with relatives ease- but it doesn't mean it's right for the patient. They have to deal with the consequences long after you or I have
