New review highlights how GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) go beyond glucose control to offer direct neurovascular protection, stabilize the blood-brain barrier, and reduce stroke risk in T2DM patients.

Addressing disparities in blood pressure management isn't just about prescribing medication—it’s about changing how we communicate. From cultural humility training to utilizing telehealth, we need systemic strategies.

“The wedge.”

The holy grail of RHC and hemodynamics

Hate it or love it, major decisions are made based on it

Whether you:
• Perform the procedure yourself
• Review someone else’s tracings
• Review someone else's report

Learn 7 tips to ensure “the wedge” accuracy

[Francisco Soto, MD, MS, MBA @FSotoMD]

[1] #Hemodynamics Tweetorial #2

Heart failure pt in ICU is -3.5L after 2d of aggressive diuresis. On day 3, urine output is ⬇️and BUN/Cr is ⬆️

You personally wedge #PAC at bedside and obtain a mean wedge 17 mmHg (a normal mean wedge is 6-10 mmHg). Admission wedge was 24

This week, I had the opportunity to attend and present our study @peerrevcongress

~50% of neutral #cardiovascular #trials report positive secondary findings, but only 15% were consequential

Grateful for the chance to share our work and to learn from experts in #metaresearch

[Farbod Zahedi Tajrishi, MD @farbod_ZT]

@DrDaleNeedham @ATSCritCare @SCCMPresident @NIDUS_Delirium @HeidiEngel4 @APTAcvp @AcuteCareAPTA @ProfSchaller I’ll share this interesting study with our PCCM fellows and Dr. Denson here at Tulane

Environmental injustice - pollution, climate hazards, & redlining—disproportionately harms cardiovascular health among Black, Hispanic & Native American communities. Traditional CV risk models miss environmental exposures. Read our new article here:

@BrentAWilliams2 Ultimately it all comes down to financial profit like everything else in America.
