Too much waste. Too much waiting. Too much #scanxiety. Happy to share that we received @CIHR_IRSC funding for the JUSTIFY RCT (NCT06930521), which will test a novel approach to reduce mandatory routine heart imaging during HER2+ #breastcancer treatment. #CardioOncology

ICYMI: People with #AFib and malignancy generally had similar hazards of #stroke but higher hazards of 🩸 compared with cancer-free control subjects, suggesting that malignancy should not lower the threshold for #cvCoag in AF. https://t.co/QRuJMNpMKh

Our recent #cardioonc work ( https://t.co/QwAckynYoa) showed baseline LA strain is not predictive of #cardiotoxicity in the #SUCCOUR trial. Although disappointing, it motivates us to find the elusive imaging biomarker for predicting CTRCD @kaznegishi @BeardedHeartDoc @dineshpmcc1

Excellent presentation by @oscaar84 on the association of incident CVD after completion of #breastcancer chemotherapy with adverse cancer outcomes. Highlights yet another reason for #cardiooncology, as CVD may increase predisposition to future cancer! #GCOS2023 @trogersresearch

A step towards understanding the issue of #heartfailure #hospital readmissions in a global context. We have much to learn from each other. Kudos to @faridftn, our collaborators, and team on this study! @JACCJournals @PMunkCardiacCtr @trogersresearch @UHN_Research

Global comparison of readmission rates amongst HF patients. Rates are high and variable. Not explained by healthcare spending, GDP, or rates of mortality. Opportunistic gap in evidence to better understand the notable variations @DouglasLeeMD

We are pleased to share the 1st manuscript in our project focusing on secondary #afib, i.e. AF dx during acute hosp'n for noncardiac disease. In this validation study, we show that admin data can be used to identify such cases with high specificity https://t.co/bRrjf7OYbY
