Digitoxin improves outcomes in advanced heart failure Your access to the latest cardiovascular news, science, tools and resources.

Breaking at #ESCCongress2025: DIGIT-HF shows digitoxin, added to standard care in advanced HFrEF, cuts the combined risk of death or HF hospitalization (HR 0.82; p=0.03). May be a viable add-on—especially for patients with AF, low BP, high HR, or renal issues. www.escardio.org/The-ESC/Pres...

To be fair, the Prada people do indirectly say “buy this bag, it’s made from leather that is better than the cheaper bag down the road from a different brand”, though it’s in reality no better and probably made in the same factory.

MP calls for transparency over Qld health head appointment Sources told the ABC an offer for the state's top health job was made and quickly scrapped.

What crap is this?

"The Queensland government says it wasn't "confident" a doctor was suitable to be the state's chief health officer"

-do they not know the last 2 two Qld CHOs were medical doctors (and so stand-ins)?? The need is in the title guys.

Public ‘misled’ over fall in NHS waiting lists Figures fell because patients who had died, moved abroad or no longer needed treatment were removed from lists, Quality Watch report finds

Are Labour fixing the #NHScrisis OR just fixing the figures?

Turns out most of the “record drop” in waiting lists came from deleting patients who died, moved abroad, or no longer needed care… not from actually treating them.

If you want to know the secret to meeting and maybe befriending celebrities, here is mine: Want nothing from them and offer them kindness. Celebs are constantly confronted by people who want something from them. Be someone who isn't that. In my experience, that's a relief and a happiness for them.

CCTA Bests CV Risk Scores for Bolstering Lifestyle Changes, Medication Uptake In an early look at SCOT-HEART 2, CCTA led more primary-prevention patients to make changes to reduce their risk of CVD.

I have been saying this for years! When the patients see their risk, rather than a theoretical number, it makes it real!

A user asked Grok to pull baseball stats. It came back with a response on 'white genocide' For hours last week, X's AI chatbot Grok brought up claims of a "white genocide" under swathes of unrelated posts. For some, it was a warning about how we use AI.

Is the “unnamed employee” Elon himself? 🤔
