Thanks to JACC Case Reports for publishing our paper on Real-Time IVUS Guided (RTIG) Ostial Stenting: A Step-by-Step Guide.
5 years of work from benchtop models, microCTs to a now standard part of our practice. Hope someone finds it helpful!

Very sad to hear of the sudden death of Dr Andrew Flapan, Consultant Cardiologist in Edinburgh.

As a young doctor he was a major inspiration to me.

Later, I had a great dinner with him at @RCPEdin the night before I gave a lecture.

A great loss 😢

@JAHA_AHA @DrDamluji This tweet (and the paper’s conclusions) falsely imply causation when this is merely a correlation within an observational cohort. May I suggest you reconsider the phrasing? Otherwise a casual observer may deduce a much higher statin-associated risk of diabetes than seen in RCTs.

[Philip Adamson @nz_philip]

Brilliant work Tom and Janice!

[Janice Chew-Harris @Janice_C_Harris]

Extremely proud of my student Tom Pirker who won the Young Investigator Award. Strong competition indeed, NZ cardiac research is looking very bright👏👏👏. Thanks for the tweet @lund_mayanna, thanks @CSANZ_NZ and @HeartNZ.

[@mayanna_lund @lund_mayanna]

With Young Investigator Award winner Thomas Pirker. A wonderful win in a terrific competition - the future of cardiac research in Aotearoa is looking good. ⁦@CSANZ_NZ⁩ ⁦@selwyn_wong⁩ ⁦@martinkstiles⁩ ⁦@rawirimj⁩

Ten Years Of TAVI in Scotland . Great way to mark this important milestone @RCPEdin Brilliant discussions around the detection of AS, the TAVI MDT and sharing of TF and Alt Access TAVI cases. @RIECathLab well done.

Not many investigator-initiated RCTs in valve disease

@lamelaspablo @yourheartdoc1 Obviously ultrasound is excellent for safe femoral puncture but are you saying that you use US to guide Proglide deployment? What’s the technique?

Unless reducing non-fatal MI is not a surrogate for reducing mortality within RCTs? @DavidLBrownMD

[Philip Adamson @nz_philip]

@VictorDayan1 @SripalBangalore I initially thought this too but I’m not sure it’s actually correct. Forest plots group according to baseline characteristics, not treatments performed after randomisation. What would be the comparator group?
