Why make virtual enhancement try to look like lge with zero blood pool -subendocardial contrast lge when. You could make scar 🌈 colored or literally any other shape would be better #cardiosky

If I had to pick, I think I’d go for a bleed rather than an infarct, not reassuring that death was 3x higher in monotherapy group
In patients at high risk for ischemic events 12 months after implantation of a drug-eluting stent, clopidogrel monotherapy was noninferior to extended dual antiplatelet therapy for net adverse clinical events. Full A-CLOSE trial results: https://nej.md/4ggbFqv #ESCCongress
Guess this explains why the abc score guided trial didn’t work. Doac for everyone!
In patients with atrial fibrillation and intermediate stroke risk, direct oral anticoagulation led to a lower risk of stroke, systemic embolism, major bleeding, or death from cardiovascular causes than no anticoagulation. Full SINGLE-AF trial results: https://nej.md/4ii61XB #ESCCongress

If you have time to browse bluesky this weekend, you have time to submit your comment on the proposed OMB rule to politicize science funding agencies. This one is important. Here's my comment if some inspiration will help. 🧪 scienceforeveryone.science/submit-your-...
Sewing needles are not part of a heart healthy diet #medksy
Tantalizing results. Would love to see another crack at this trial with an wearable device, not an easy sell to put 2 generators in a patient #cardiosky
Love the aphorism but looks like you can stuff your face all the way to a normal left atrial volume #cardiosky #medsky

Is this curtains for tavr outside of high risk or do we hand wave and say no one uses xt anymore anyways ?#cardiosky
Fuck it, let’s just google
As you may have seen - Open Evidence and UpToDate expert AI (specialized in medicine) lose to GPT/Claude/Gemini = generalized models www.nature.com/articles/s41... Why does #Roon think they will be special when they eventually sell MD discussions into an LLM package? 🤔 #MedSky
I got you now bitches! Go on, deny my Zepbound script! Go on! @bcbsm.bsky.social #cardiosky
High rest mbf is ….not…good? #cardiosky
Looks like we’re gonna shorten the PYP protocol to scan at 30 minutes post injection #cardiosky
It’s not about the significance of the results that matter for nejm, it’s about how many patients got randomized. Want to test for a difference between 81 mg aspirin and 100 mg aspirin ? Who cares about the result, as long as you had n of 10000 nejm will Publish
Our latest video in our partnership with @glaucomflecken.bsky.social summarizes the Ez-PAVE trial that evaluated the appropriate LDL cholesterol target for secondary prevention in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Read the full study for free: https://nej.md/DrG41 #Cardiology
Pretty low rates of Scd for Hocm. How high does it need to be to make icd a solid choice without dedicated rcts? Looks like only the top 1% of scar would warrant it, even then, Rct would be good #cardiosky pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42113540/
No argument I can give can offset nocebo, I say they’re safer than Tylenol, doesn’t work. the solution is to make statins available over the counter. #cardiosky Time to Move Beyond the Statin Nocebo Effect | JACC www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...
Say it with me : quintuple therapy! (Sorry Vericiguat I think you’re great but the guidelines…) #cardiosky
I guess if someone already has a foley this is fine but condom Cath would have made more sense www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...
80% positive predictive value! 90% negative predictive value! No gray zone cases. Why am I still using ecg amyloid screening? Only like 1 in 8 of the PYPs is a hit #cardiosky

A Kerendia drug rep started talking to me about the spirit-hf results today and it occurred to me that an evil pharma company should just fund a very bad, inconclusive trial for their competitor and use those null results to market how great their drug is by comparison. Medicine is great! #cardiosky

I can only think of one of my patients that does more than an hour of exercise daily. Does this data actually convince anyone to cut down their exercise dose? #cardiosky www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...
Would not have guessed this trial would be positive. Always bet on glp1a I guess. How brutal is the 10 mg Zepbound starting dose? #cardiosky
I guess the problem with sentinel wasn’t that it wasn’t a good enough filter. Just that filtering doesn’t matter for stroke. Still plausible that there’s a future cognitive risk from dumping all that valve junk into the circulation #cardiosky

It’s not all disappointing news for hfpef today. Doubt this can be as crazy effective as with pah but I’d bet a phase 3 for hfpef will be positive #cardiosky

I threw this and closure into a meta analysis with the old stuff to see the effect on strokes, not too non-inferior. I feel you gotta tell patients : your stroke risk may go up a bit, you’ll have less bleeding down the road but pay the price with bleeds up front. Want one or no? #cardiosky
