TransformHF showed no significant difference between torsemide and furosemide in hospitalized heart failure patients. It is unfortunate that there was not a better diuretic. But the data seems quite clear.

much of my research life studying viral proteases I am grateful for paxlovid, a protease inhibitor. Hopefully it works as well as promised to reduce my mild to moderate symptoms. 2/2

I decided I needed to try not being such a Covid Hermit this summer. So, we went UCLA for a dental school graduation and to see two grandkids. In spite of wearing an N95 most of the time and vaxed, I had a positive COVID test this morning. After spending 1/2.

#acc22 Omecamtiv mecarbil in Meteoric HF failed to improve peak VO2 in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. This well-designed study demonstrates the importance of randomized double-blind studies, even if the results are negative.

We were on our way to the ACC meeting when it was announced that we we would need to make an unplanned landing in Denver because the windscreen cracked. Apparently it was spontaneous. Fortunately, we landed safely and are about to get back in air. We are grateful for safe flights

My four year old grandson’s Covid test just came back as positive. His mother asked him, “Do you know what Covid is?” .He responded, “It’s putting a Q-tip in your nose.”.Funny and sad at the same time. Fortunately, he is doing well so far.
