EJPC most downloaded articles...@m_piepoli Bempedoic acid w ezetimibe in high CVD risk. What we learned? Incremental LDL change was seen at 12 weeks. so aiming for even lower LDL, now we have another weapon! #cardioed #epeeps @Lpa_Doc @ProfKausikRay @DrMarthaGulati @purviparwani

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

/2 and Mendelian Randomisation supports that one would expect clinical benefit by inhibiting adenosine triphosphate-citrate lyase, as Ulf Landmesser remind us! #Bempedoic #Acid - @m_piepoli points "we should aim for the right treatment for the right patient". #ESCPrev2021 #epeeps

Please vote above! Healthy #nutrition ! We like mono or poly-unsaturated fats! Avocados are great! And so are nuts, olive oil, salmon & trout! #ESCPrev2021 WE CAN HAVE A HEALTHY DIET, AND WE SHOULD! @AnastasiaSMihai @bes502 @wordfinga #epeeps #cardioed @CastlDalmunzie @panagis21

Most downloaded from EJPC @m_piepoli Unsurprisingly ACE 2 in #Covid downloaded a lot!!! A topic close to my heart! #ESCPrev2021 DON'T STOP ACE/ARB! They are safe and could be helpful!! #epeeps #cardioed https://t.co/GKvyO8MaQ8 & https://t.co/gTQeckSQxo @BenSaaud @ShraboniGhosal

And a HTN session I was looking for! Great talk by Prof Parati. When to treat? EARLY. What drug? THE ONE THAT REDUCES BP. Class is less relevant if BP normalisation achieved #ESCPrev2021 The lower the BP the better! But watch out 4 poorer adherence... @AnastasiaSMihai @mmamas1973

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

#ESCPrev2021 HTN talks continue- its all about adherence! Single pill can improve adherence Prod Sudano reminds us. Optimise factors of non-adhere-photo 2. Conclusion: Keep it simple-single pill if possible- EMPOWER the patients @BenSaaud @AnastasiaSMihai @LeonieKlompstra #epeeps

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

and HTN talks continue with Paul Leeson from @UniofOxford talking on #EXERCISE to help reduce HTN. COMMENT of the DAY "if you don't have time for exercise, make sure you allow time for ILLNESS!" #epeeps#cardioed #echofirst 150mins of any physical activity def needed per week!

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

#ESCPrev2021 one of my favorite sessions- most downloaded articles of EJPC led by the amazing EIC @m_piepoli. First up @EkateriniL discussing her paper on the various risk scores of CVD risk...Great scores but what is the future? Automatic incorporation in EMR! #epeeps #cardioed

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

#ESCPrev2021 highlights session by @MichaelPapadak2 First up the Population & Public Health Section, w past chair @PMarquesVidal omportance of Pollution as a risk factor, physical activity- hopefully tele technology can help uptake, & importance of genes which decreases with age

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]

#ESCPrev2021 was meant to be in #Ljubljana this year, like the amazing conference in 2018! Where @mmamas1973 & @EkateriniL showed me to @Twitter! 3 years and 4,358 followers later, THANK YOU ALL FOR THE AMAZING Experience! Don’t forget the #highlights session in 10 minutes!!!

Ramping up #cardiac #education before #ESCCongress... who benefits from mitral clip? Better responders from COAPT trial had creatinine and better Kansas questionnaire scores... or received mitral clip...paving the way to precision medicine! #radialfirst @mmamas1973 @GreggWStone

[Vass Vassiliou @vass_vassiliou]
