Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: natural history and treatment response assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance CMR with ECV mapping can track changes in cardiac amyloid burden and treatment response in ATTR-CM, with changes in ECV being independently associated with…
Diagnostic yield in families to sudden cardiac death victims: a 10-year follow-up study Long-term follow-up identified an inherited heart disease in 12% of SCD relatives, primarily diagnosed within 5 years. Cardiac events were rare (4%). These findings suggest that follow-up may…
Seek and you shall find: red flags in hypertrophic phenotypes Clinical red flags in patients presenting with HCM are effective in screening for HCM phenocopies and should be systematically implemented in both generalist and specialty practices academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva…
If you're applying for Nephrology fellowship let @DGlaucomflecken tell you why you need to apply to @OHSUNephrology. Then let us tell you all the reasons why its such a great training program! #nephtwitter
🧵Check out our work @JAHA_AHA on 3-year outcomes following septal myectomy in 5,300 obstructive HCM patients. High overall burden of CVH post-myectomy in this unselected HCM cohort from wide range of practices. AFib/flutter is major issues! 25% develop new AF/AFL within 1st…
In this #JACCBTS article, authors demonstrate that repetitive pressure overload in swine develops interstitial fibrosis and chamber stiffening that persists up to 4 weeks. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #HFpEF
Targeting the underlying precursor protein is simpler than removing amyloid. Pathophysiology of AL is complex, and having different involved light chains as well makes it harder to develop a singular therapy. I am encouraged by the mention of a specific group that derived…

CVH post myectomy. Over a 3 year follow up. Significant burden overall for this unselected population from wide range of practices. Events significantly decrease after the first 1.5 years. AF is a major issue Great work by @Teebi_MD ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA… #CardioTwitter
