🔥Hot off the press! In our latest @CircImaging meta-analysis, following LAAO, #YesCCT has ⬆️ higher odds of detecting residual leak (LAA patency) and any PDL compared to TEE. There were no differences in the detection of PDL >5mm and DRT. @FaizMBaqai@DrJCheungEP@nadeemnimri
WHO statement on attack on Al Ahli Arab Hospital and reported large-scale casualties
WHO strongly condemns the attack on Al Ahli Arab Hospital in the north of the Gaza Strip. The hospital was operational, with patients, health and care givers, and internally displaced people sheltering there. Early reports indicate hundreds of fatalities and injuries.
The hospital was one of 20 in the north of the Gaza Strip facing evacuation orders from the Israeli military. The order for evacuation has been impossible to carry out given the current insecurity, critical condition of many patients, and lack of ambulances, staff, health system bed capacity, and alternative shelter for those displaced.
WHO calls for the immediate active protection of civilians and health care. Evacuation orders must be reversed. International humanitarian law must be abided by, which means health care must be actively protected and never targeted.

Disability is often misinterpreted as inability. With humility, a supportive community, and a relentless pursuit of your goals, anything is possible. Check out this article I wrote for #ACCFIT Newsletter about my personal journey in cardiology.
