Great work showing the importance of LDL-c control in symptomatic individuals even with CAC score of 0 - highlights the importance of non-calcific plaques.

Revising for an exam & during the congenital sections, seeing multiple references to the Blalock-Taussig shunt, casually erasing the work of Vivien Thomas.
After watching #SomethingTheLordMade & the @medcrisis.bsky.social video about it ages ago, important not to erase the impact of pioneers
A truly remarkable batsman - specifically loved the chase! With 2010s V Kohli, you knew Team India was in it with a chance batting second with him around. Also agree his passion to preserve the beauty of Test cricket is admirable.
Big shoes to fill!

Great listening to this - patient perspective quite key in long term management, often missed in consultations (I'm guilty as anyone at times!) | #CardioSky #HeartFailure #SportsCardiology #HealthExchangePodcast | @daniellebelardomd.bsky.social
This got 'Icarus'-level of intriguing as each minute passed 🍿

ALIGN-AR: Among patients with aortic regurgitation undergoing #TAVR with the Trilogy valve, the rate of mortality at one year was 8.1%, significantly lower than the prespecified goal of 25% to show noninferiority. #ACC25

Heading to quite possibly my last night shifts as a medical registrar (will still be doing Cardio on-calls).
Lets see what they have to offer.

Agreed 100%. I still recall tearing up listening to old episodes of him talking about his pets dying (and grief after that), about the Innocence Project, amazement at him talking AI w/ Nick Bostrom, etc.
Now not so much. As they say in WWE, 'turned heel'.
ECG vs EKG
FBC vs CBC
Regional differences will always remain 🌐. Don't think it matters IMHO.
Even for a literature search, including [TAVI OR TAVR] should be sufficient to include all relevant studies.
America's drift into isolationism will probably be studied in detail 50 years from now.
2014-16 me: "This guy has some pretty thoughtful discussions from time to time for a meathead"
2021+ me: "NVM"
If they're worried about the 'slippery slope' argument ('If we kick him out, where do we draw the line for the future?') - then that's what a committee is actually for? Consensus opinion ? Sad outcome.
All too familiar. Tragic story 😔
I would think this is A Fib with runs of non-sustained VT (in AVR I think i can see some 'A-V dissociation' during the runs - highlighted). Plus, morphology of some of the ectopy is different from that of the 'runs' hence why I'd think it's the latter
Some clear advantages but in the end, the best team won IMHO 🇮🇳🏆
Our latest paper on EJPC @escardio.bsky.social on use of SGLT2i in cancer patients…
Reduces heart failure hospitalisation by 50%! And mortality!

It is true that playing in the same stadium for a whole tournament is going to give you an obvious advantage
It is also true that despite this, you still have to beat the teams in front of you 👏🏾
Good on Shami to admit the former though

It was great to share some case studies (and learn from some excellent speakers before me!) at the RSM #Cardiology training day on Heart Failure & Ischaemia.
Thanks to @roysocmed.bsky.social and the organisers for inviting me!

Nobody chases better than Virat Kohli 👑
Important thread 🧵 on why just because we *can* do something doesn't mean we *should* do something.
If you get a cardiac arrest call coming in from a NH, most physicians would query about the 'Ceiling of Care' and if not present, have a low threshold to stop for the dignity of the person.
Had a great time speaking at #PioneeringThePulse conference about careers in Cardiology, training and demonstrating the role of echocardiography to some keen & talented UCL/Imperial medical students.
Fantastic day - thank you to the organisers for the invite ! #CardioSky #EchoFirst
Very true ! On their day, a tricky side to contest
Losing to NZ to avoid playing Australia in the semi-finals is the 4D level chess that I never expected Team India to be playing #INDvNZ #CT2025 #Cricket
Interesting case ! Are we entering the era of TAVI in (failing) mechanical valve ? Curious to see if stopping anticoag leads to long term thrombotic issues.. | #CardioSky #JACC

Gary Lineker's quote about football & Germany can pretty much be reflected for the Aussies and cricket (big tournaments especially) "...game of 11 v 11 and in the end Australia wins 🇦🇺"
Highlights should be fun to watch after some weekend on call action 🏏🎥 #ChampionsTrophy #CT2025
Fantastic work demonstrating the predictive ability of AI-ECG for HF across large, multi-national cohorts 👏🏽. Would be interesting to see if those deemed 'high risk' would benefit from more regular follow-up and initiation of GDMT early, improving their outcomes #CardioSky #AI #HeartFailure
Me on the medical take in [insert busy London district general hospital].
