Great discussion today on inflammation in HFpEF/HFmrEF with Dr. Lam.
My take home: HFpEF/HFmrEF are systemic syndromes where comorbidities drive chronic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, microvascular inflammation, fibrosis, and stiffness.
Dr. Lam highlighted the clinical opportunity: hsCRP ≥2 mg/L can help identify inflammatory risk, and POSEIDON showed ~2/5 patients with HF have high inflammatory risk supporting future anti-inflammatory strategies across the HF spectrum.
Thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to the Q&A.

Today in Hail, the Saudi Heart Failure Working Group proudly hosts the “Management of Heart Failure & Hypertension” conference.
We are advancing comprehensive care across HFrEF, HFmrEF & HFpEF, improving recognition of advanced heart failure, and emphasizing prevention by controlling Hypertension — one of the Kingdom’s major cardiovascular concerns — at Stage A to stop heart failure before it develops.
Strengthening heart failure prevention and management across Saudi Arabia in line with Vision 2030 healthcare transformation goals.

Last week, the Saudi Heart Failure Working Group led a landmark hybrid HTN Excellence Forum across Riyadh & Jeddah simultaneously!
We highlighted a critical message: Hypertension is one of the major modifiable risk factor for heart failure. Managing it early — at Stage A (pre-HF) — is one of the most powerful ways to prevent heart failure before it starts.
Proud to co-chair this with international expert Prof. Bryan Williams and our colleagues.
Advancing prevention and care in line with Saudi Vision 2030.
