To prevent MI, we may need to stop waiting for symptoms. @DLBHATTMD explores how CCTA plaque progression and regression could become treatment targets for precision prevention. Can plaque imaging transform MI prevention the way screening changed cancer care? 🎥 Watch on #Vumedi - tinyurl.com/bdwu4y22 #CCTA #Atherosclerosis #PreventiveCardiology #MI #VumediCardio @ASPCardio

In UKB and MESA, IL-6 showed a stronger association with ASCVD than LDL-C, Lp(a), or hsCRP after mutual adjustment. This does not diminish the causality of LDL and Lp(a) but reinforces inflammation biology as a major driver of ASCVD risk. @ASPCardio @nationallipid @society_eas

Great Infographic from #CardioSmart to go with the new ACC/AHA Guidelines for CKD @VietHeartPA This should be in every clinic and office. Let's start talking about CKD and screening properly! We can prevent kidney disease & heart disease if we screen! #CVPrev @ASPCardio

High triglycerides affect 1 in 3 American adults — yet proactive treatment remains rare. The National Triglyceride Alliance is an independent working group dedicated to changing that: through clinician education, evidence-based advocacy, and a commitment to making TG management a core part of patient care. Follow for guidelines, research, and resources. #Triglycerides #CardiovascularHealth #Lipids

The new CKM guidelines challenge us to think beyond isolated risk factors. Personalized care isn’t the opposite of guideline-directed medicine—it’s its highest expression. The right treatment, for the right patient, at the right time requires integrating biology, comorbidities, lived experience, and patient goals. Precision prevention is no longer aspirational; it’s necessary. A timely perspective by @frankq1368 on why the future of CKM will be personal. Worth the read. sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #CKM #PreventiveCardiology #PrecisionMedicine @AJPCardio @ASPCardio @khurramn1 @DrMichaelShapir @nationallipid @ACCinTouch @AHAScience

Despite high levels of fitness, tactical athletes—including military personnel, firefighters, and law enforcement officers—face a substantial burden of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk that often goes unrecognized. This state-of-the-art review highlights how traditional risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, insulin resistance, and sleep disorders intersect with unique occupational exposures—including shift work, heat stress, smoke inhalation, and performance-enhancing substances—to increase cardiovascular risk. The authors argue for a shift from symptom-driven evaluation to proactive screening, aggressive risk factor management, and selective use of coronary artery imaging. Key takeaways: 🔹 Sudden cardiac death remains the leading medical cause of duty-related mortality across tactical professions 🔹 High fitness levels may mask significant cardiometabolic risk 🔹 Coronary artery calcium (CAC) testing may help identify subclinical disease in selected individuals 🔹 Prevention strategies should be tailored to the unique demands of tactical occupations and operational readiness requirements 📖 Read the article: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #PreventiveCardiology #CardiovascularHealth #TacticalAthlete #ASCVD #CoronaryArteryDisease #SportsCardiology #MilitaryMedicine #FirefighterHealth #LawEnforcement #CardiologyResearch #HeartHealth

🧬 Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Early CVD Prevention Live Online CardioCore Foundational Lecture 📅 Tuesday, June 23, 2026 ⏰ 6:00–7:00 PM EDT Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) remains one of the most common inherited cardiovascular conditions—and one of the most underdiagnosed. Early identification and treatment can dramatically reduce the risk of premature cardiovascular disease. Join the next ASPC CardioCore Foundational Lecture featuring @AshishSarraju, Director of the Center for Inherited Lipid Disorders at Cleveland Clinic. This session will explore: ✔️ The pathophysiology and clinical evidence behind FH ✔️ Diagnosis, evaluation, and clinical criteria ✔️ The role of genetic testing in patient care ✔️ Established and emerging lipid-lowering therapies ✔️ Strategies for early cardiovascular disease prevention Moderated by Harpreet S. Bhatia @hsbhatia, a preventive cardiologist and researcher focused on lipids, lipoprotein(a), and cardiovascular disease prevention. Whether you're a fellow, resident, practicing clinician, or preventive cardiology specialist, this complimentary educational program offers practical insights from leaders advancing the field of inherited lipid disorders and preventive cardiology.
