Cardiac microstructural alterations measured by echocardiography identify sex-specific risk for heart failure

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a man who, as a baby, had graced the cover of Nirvana’s seminal album, "Nevermind," and argued 30 years later that the iconic photo of him drifting naked in a pool had been a form of sexual exploitation. https://t.co/vOyVOKH3Iz

#RATEAF #ESCCongress
🔹#digoxin vs #bisoprolol for HR control in #AF (n=160 46%F mostly N EF)
🔹Dig did not improve prim outcome of #QOL at 6 mo
🔹Improved sec outcomes
- NYHA class
- NT-proBNP
🔹Offered similar HR control w/ ⬇️adverse events
Small RCT, cheap drug, impressive!

@JACCJournals Really an hot topic in echo. Will it be the holy grail of DD? #echofirst

[JACC Journals @JACCJournals]

Have you thought about atrial dysfunction in #HFpEF? New #JACC research suggests it may play a key role in the disease: https://t.co/hgRlOn63O9

SGLT2is in #ESCCongress 2020

Use in patients with
✔️ diabetes (T2D)
✔️ Heart Failure (±Diabetes)
✔️ CKD (±Diabetes)

Benefit
⬇️ HbA1c & BP
⬇️ HF hospitalisation /CVD death
⬇️ MACE
⬇️ Progression of CKD

At lower eGFR, HbA1c ⬇️ reduced, but other benefits sustained (30 OK!)

@ShinFukuharaMD @raffdoc Seems an oversized valve that led to incomplete leaflet movement thus promoting thrombosis

Elderly patients with AF who were not candidates for standard doses of oral anticoagulants because of a high risk of bleeding were assigned to receive 15 mg of edoxaban or placebo once daily. Edoxaban was superior to placebo in preventing stroke or systemic embolism. #ESCCongress
