A retrospective cohort study examined whether adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) predict early cardiovascular risk.

Within 5 years of delivery, 9.5% of patients with an APO developed a cardiovascular disease risk factor - such as type 2 diabetes, chronic hypertension, or hyperlipidemia - compared with 3.2% of those without an APO (HR 3.11, 95% CI 2.87–3.38). The strongest associations were seen for diabetes after gestational diabetes and hypertension after preeclampsia.

These findings support early postpartum screening for cardiometabolic risk in patients with APOs.

✅ Long-term outcome in patients supported with ECMO is good. Five-year survivors report satisfactory health-related quality of life despite some impairment in day-to-day functioning.

Let's kick off 2026 with a review article on cardiogenic shock. When families ask, "Why are they so sick when it is just their heart?" provide them with this image. 🎩 tip to the authors.

Welcome to the world of headaches in pregnancy—where migraines meet morning sickness, and meds have to tiptoe around fetal safety.

Another person hurt by unfounded fears surrounding IV contrast for CT scans.

Diagnostic errors due to hesitancy surrounding IV contrast remain stubbornly common.

This new work out today in @AJOG_thegray has been instrumental in how I think about #placenta #accreta - let's strive to consider the biology and mechanism when we care for patients. So proud of our single-cell atlas of placenta accreta https://t.co/rMFuXoWqML @MySMFM

"The patient already has AKI don't give contrast."
Actually it has been studied and giving contrast doesn't make the AKI measurably worse.

Hospital housekeepers. The ones cleaning the rooms, the ones cleaning the hallways, taking out the trash, resetting beds, and just doing their very best to keep these hospitals clean. Thank you, thank you so much. We see you. 🙏🥰👏👏👏
