With deep sorrow, I received the news of Dr. Eugene Braunwald’s passing, one of the greatest figures in world cardiology.
His scientific legacy, clinical vision, and immeasurable contribution to generations of cardiologists will continue to live on in our daily practice and in the history of medicine.
My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, students, and to the entire cardiology community. May he rest in peace.

How to Decode Dyspnea Using Physiology (Braunwald + Clinical Insights)
CPET is not just a stress test, It is a complete physiologic study of the heart, lungs, and muscles working together under stress

Should patients with cardiac conduction disorders (CCD) be genetically tested? Which 🧬 should be analyzed? What is the contribution of each 🧬?
Come with me to see the results of our new study published this week @JACCJournals 👇 Long 🧵 (2/16)
Ayer celebramos que Virtu, David, Pablo y Carlos ya son excelentes cardiólogos después de cinco años de esfuerzo inmenso. Un día entrañable y emocionante lleno de recuerdos. Os queremos y OS DESEAMOS LO MEJOR, siempre en nuestro ♥️ @HospitalUVRocio
Artículo de CIRCULATION analizando 20 a. de muerte súbita en jóvenes deportistas americanos. Solo parte de las muertes se debe al corazón. Se presentan las causas cardíacas más frecuentes y la actividad física en ese momento. https://t.co/X91qA0mgKG
Concluye la IV reunión Anual de Cardiopatías Familiares de la @SACardiologia Todo un éxito en el que hemos podido demostrar la alta complejidad que abordamos en nuestra unidad de cardiopatías familiares. Muchísimo que contar! @HospitalUVRocio@SaludConsumoSe
Does a subepicardial microstructural substrate underlie Brugada syndrome, ERS, and iVF? Just out: our Circulation @CircAHA Frontiers article, where we discuss the notion of a subepicardial cardiomyopathy.

Impressive. A wearable patch that acquires continuous, real-time ultrasound images of the heart at rest, on the go, and during exercise (echocardiograms) with automated processing

Acute Myocarditis Associated With Desmosomal Gene Variants
From 97 patients with acute #myocarditis included, 36 presented a desmosomal genetic variant!
And those patients had significantly more adverse events!
