Oral anticoagulation after publication of the CLOSURE-AF trial and LAAC deemed “not non-inferior”. 😐

[NEJM @NEJM]

Among patients with atrial fibrillation at high risk for stroke and bleeding, left atrial appendage closure was not noninferior to medical therapy in reducing the risk of stroke, embolism, major bleeding, or death at 3 years. Full CLOSURE-AF trial results: https://t.co/qAMC2o36Mi

In an international, randomized trial involving patients with acute venous thromboembolism, the risk of clinically relevant bleeding was significantly lower with apixaban than with rivaroxaban during the 3-month treatment period.

A large Danish cohort study (n=903,415) found that occupational exposure to diesel engine exhaust (DEE) significantly raises the risk of first-time AMI, highlighting the need to include AMI in occupational DEE risk assessments when setting exposure limits. https://t.co/Ip0ewCZX7m

We are in a “golden-era”of GDMT
for pts w/ HFrEF, what barriers do we face in 25’ in implementation?

Should strategies be dynamic by race/age/SE background?

Our editorial in @JCardFail by @UCCardsFellows Mary Acosta @manreetkanwar explores this❓

Grateful for the opportunity to present and learn from peers at ACC-IL’25. Inspired by the cardiology giants in the room including Dr Yancy @NMHheartdoc. Thank you so much Dr Freed for organising this wonderful event. Its a great place for aspiring cardiologists like myself.

Right ventricular function: Echocardiographic Evaluation:

-TAPSE is most frequently used and has an independent prognostic value in HFpEF.
-The currently recommended lower limit cut‐off for TAPSE is <17 mm,12 although prior studies frequently used <16 mm.
-Fractional area change (with a lower limit of normal <35%12) is also commonly used, and is predictive of all‐cause mortality and heart failure hospitalizations in HFpEF.

In order to become a sub-specialist, it is important to first be a good internist!

Here are some of my notes I used to study for the Internal Medicine Boards.

Emergency Medicine is wide open for IMGs - for those interested in next match.

But be aware of the impact on your emotional health. You have to love EM to do it.

[Hemank Walia, MD @WaliaHemank]

@ObradFilip Thank you 🙏❤️

[Hemank Walia, MD @WaliaHemank]

Have no words to describe my emotions right now so just leaving this here ❤️ I had first thought about taking this path when I was a 18 year old medical student. This dream has been so many years in the making and truly took a village to make it come true. I can't believe it.

@mansasaxena28 Thank you for everything love ❤️
