Low penetrance sarcomere variants (LowSVs) contribute to mild HCM alone but increase severity with high-risk variants. @neallakdawala @drjamesware @tikuowens @jodieingles27 @S2beri @sday_hcm @SeanLZheng @AdamHelmsMD https://t.co/26ffpOKTOE

The first set of #ESCGuidelines for cardiomyopathy. Fantastic to see standing room only at #ESCCongress2023 as guidelines aim to increase CM awareness outside the subspecialty #CardioGen clinic https://t.co/kZdL09ge8Y

@glantern43 I have copy of the body keeps the score if you want it. Good read.

@glantern43 That's a pretty nice lookin cowboy picture!

Excited to share our work on iPSC-derived 2D cardiac muscle bundles. Accessible and reproducible contractile assessment, insights on cardiac development, disease modeling. Read @NatureComms https://t.co/P9lL7vptWi @BakerLaboratory @LoriLIsom1 @yuweiwu_imb @umichCVC

@BruckelJeffrey @UMichCardiology @MatthewKonerman These both make a lot of sense for the right patients (definite obstruction, hyperdynamic EF, appropriate anatomy). Mavacamten is a little hard to get but that will change soon. Myectomy often results in LBBB and needs to be performed by an experienced surgeon.

Excited to present our work on mortality after first infection in LVAD patients at virtual #ISHLT2021. Couldn't have done it without Guangyu Yang, @DLikosky @FPaganiMD, Carol Chenoweth, @PreetiNMalani @mdfetters @MichaelPienta, Lula Cabrera and the rest of the team!

@S2beri Reminds me of bandaids and my 4yo. Life changing when applied to an ouchie but they don't fix the problem. Fortunately, 4yo bodies are good at fixing ouchies. For HCM we need more docs like @s2beri to figure things out, maybe one day we'll need less bandaids.

Remote monitoring is the gold standard of care for patients with CIEDs, but current processes are laborious and error-prone. Check out our proposal to Transform Cardiac Device Care for the #FCVCInnovation Challenge! #EPeeps

**VALVE CASE OF THE WEEK**

OK, this starts off about valves...but then isn't really about valves...but it's the broader educational point (which is relevant to valves) that I want to make this week...no poll I'm afraid, but as always, comments encouraged! 😁
