- Apixaban⬇️risk of risk of major bleeding by 47% vs. warfarin & rivaroxaban, whereas rivaroxaban is associated with a 65%⬆️risk of major bleeding vs. warfarin; no differences in risks for stroke/systemic embolism & death observed. #AHAJournals @alexchangmd ahajrnls.org/47uVUHq
- Do all SGLT2i perform similarly for all patients? This network meta-analysis tackles the question. #AHAJournals @MDAtsuyuki @KenEjiri @CardioMDPhD @ToshikiKuno ahajrnls.org/49suDpw
- Is it VT or SVT? Check out an in-depth analysis of traditional and contemporary methods to differentiate WCT! @TheEKGGuy @MayoClinicCV
- New study strengthens the suspicion that #apoB, rather than #LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, is responsible for causing #peripheral #artery #disease in people with #hyperlipidemia. #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/3PkZvNQ
- Higher amounts of moderate‐to‐vigorous physical #activity, whether a long single or multiple shorter bouts, lowers all-cause mortality goo.gl/mYmm5q
- Important for cardiologists: the definition and approach to #pulmonaryhypertension has changed, focusing on earlier diagnosis, earlier referral to expert centers. #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/43SnbBy
- In a propensity matched cohort, aspirin use was associated with a 46% lower risk for coronary heart disease events in participants with Lp(a) >50 mg/dL without baseline #CVD. #AHAJournals @hsbhatia @Lpa_Doc @UCSDCardiology ahajrnls.org/3uMhHeN
- Learn how #obesity causes #AFib through both direct and indirect mechanisms in this new #Review article. #AHAJournals @Sharina000 @OliviaBaines05 @abbiehayesreal @katie_tompkins5 @manish2107 @Andrew_P_Holmes @chrisRJO @PavlovicDavor ahajrnls.org/3H32XuB

- The editors of JAHA fully endorse inclusiveness in medicine and condemn all notions of discrimination. The article by Wang represents solely his view and does not reflect in any way the opinions of the AHA or the editors. The editors are currently re-evaluating the article.All of the @American_Heart journals are edited independently of the organization. How a paper that is so incompatible with our core values came to be published will be reviewed. @dmljmd @MitchElkind @ivorbenjamin2
- The atrial Frank-Starling mechanism matters in HFpEF. Volumetric/mechanical uncoupling (LACI↑) predicts worse outcomes. #AHAJournals @MasatoOkada1105 @OCVC_lab ahajrnls.org/4fG3iEc
- Should ApoB be applied widely in clinical care? Multiple expert groups have confirmed its accuracy, precision, and selectivity surpass that of LDL-C and non-HDL-C. The future looks bright w/ mass spec methods enhancing standardization. #AHAJournals #Review
