Aficamten vs metoprolol responder analysis. How many more trials in oHCM and myosin inhibition are needed prior to establishing LVOT gradients/LVEF, (supported by NTproBNP and safety) as the outcome? Placebo effect on NYHA/KCCQ is sizable, while pVO2 continues to provide a

1: “Longitudinal strain” is not the real longitudinal shortening, as it adds the effect of inward tracking. 2: The inward gradient of longitudinal strain is an artefact of feature tracking.

#EHJCVI 🫀ICD selection in NICM isn’t just about LVEF <35% or LGE %, location matters 📌 Midwall LGE identifies patients with higher MAACE risk ⚡DERIVATE Risk Score 2.0 (LGE location + LVEF + sex) delivers a +54% NRI vs LVEF alone. Read more 👉 https://t.co/rF396dN85g

It is fascinating that an anatomic study has confirmed what echocardiography previously suggested: tricuspid valve is not tricuspid most of the times due to leaflet scalloping, most commonly of the posterior leaflet. https://t.co/Ed4QZqWcFC
