Elmore, Ahern, @BMLevitan, Satin et al. @universityofky shed light on RRAD, a protein that helps regulate calcium channels in the heart. They find its tail region is crucial for both attaching to the cell membrane and influencing heart function. hubs.la/Q02Gm3H60

A great case from the University of Kentucky. “Mind Your Arch”—An Unusual Cause of Systemic Hypertension in Pregnanc... sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

My GI doctor is my hero! No mammal products for me.
Here at #ACG2022 presenting pooled results of alpha-gal oral food challenge: 4 in 10 allergic had only GI symptoms! @AlphaGal_RES @AGencouragers @alphagal_info @scott_commins
I did a thing today, #ACS I passed the Advanced Cardiac Sonographer exam.

Excellent “why do we do a bubble study” talk today. @GillKentucky @VLSorrellImages looking forward to regular echo chalk talks
@@VLSorrellImages @CASEfromASE staying safe from the icy roads. Data collection for @CampbellLabatUK hoping for positive results..data talks.

My favorites are the networks that string out like worms in the heart.

What is this right atrial finding that can be incidentally found on #echofirst #POCUS and confused with a thrombus? [it can rarely be associated with an actual thrombus] #MedEd #anatomy
My arms feel as weak as this @CincyACHD @ACHD_CHI heart after a 3 hour commute home. Please come to clinic regularly so we can help prevent issues like this.

When your mentors are faster with Twitter than you are.
#JADEL Don't you love it when your cardiac sonographer is recognized for their outstanding skills & efforts? Its not easy to echo tiny mouse hearts. 😄 Way to go @BMLevitan. Keep up the great work! @ASE360 @CASEfromASE Impressive reduction in post-MI size:

Congratulations Brooke Ahern, PhD.
Ahern et al show that in the absence of Rad, myocardial L-type calcium current is greater at peak, balanced by faster decay to yield no AP prolongation. Rad KO supersedes beta-adrenergic receptor signaling to the LTCC to enhance trigger Ca & heart function bit.ly/3BbIJL1

Experienced sonographers teaching first year fellows how to perform an echo. Everyone brings something to the table and contribute to the education and development of cardiology fellows. @Kentucky_Cards @VLSorrellImages @GillKentucky

I learned something new from Dr. Twitter again. Variable morphology of the TV, cool 😎
Isn’t surprising that we didn’t know that up to 40% of tricuspid valves have ≥4 leaflets until this important 📝 was published in 2021! doi.org/10.1016/j.jcmg.2021.…
Direct patient care folks, when your patient has something you have never seen before, keep the you’re so different to yourself! Listen and help the patient create a care plan, nobody wants to be in the hospital!!! That’s my soapbox for the week.
Impressive! Thankful we don’t see many TB cases.
