Welcome!!

You know what’s absolutely disgusting? People complaining about “low birth rates” in the U.S. while staying silent about funding cuts to hospitals and OB care in rural areas. Pregnancy is not a walk in the park, it’s a high-risk condition that requires care, not neglect. We can’t fix birth rates while women are dying.

Our @ASPCardio statement on South Asians & Cardiometabolic Health in @AJPCardio I had the honour of co-chairing this w/ the amazing @dranandrohatgi & @jaideeppatelmd Thank you to our entire talented team who brought this to life 📎shorturl.at/4bJGz #CVPrev #CardioTwitter

We’re out here obsessing over protein, and look, I ain’t mad about it. But let’s not forget: MOST people don’t hit the minimum for fiber intake. And no, I’m not talking about fiber gummies or supplements. I mean fiber from actual whole plant foods like fruits, veggies, lentils, beans, and whole grains. So yes, protein matters. But fiber is crucial too, backed by study after study after study. So here’s your friendly reminder: eat the protein, but don’t skip the fiber. Your body will thank you 🙌🏽

This paper was truly a labor of love. We sought to consolidate the existing literature and provide insights on an often underexplored topic - the pregnant patient in the CICU. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3981… #criticalcarecardiology #acutecardiaccare #cardioobstetrics #CICU Amrin Kharawala @SanjanaNagraj @GayatriSetia

Sadly, we still default to granting more respect to men than women. 8 studies: we're >2x as likely to call male politicians, athletes, teachers, and authors by their last names. It matters: surnames signal higher status. It's long past time to use consistent standards.

Important long-term data on biomarkers that were only somewhat recommended to check in women in the 2018 lipid guidelines. Average age in the 50s at enrollment, but prevention means looking even earlier.

For adults w/ heart failure & an ICD , can an SGLT2i ⬇️ a person’s risk of ventricular arrhythmias? Based on this double-blind RCT of ertugliflozin vs. placebo, it appears it can! 💓💊 eviden.cc/476qaIL @HaraldSou @MartinBene1994 @DanielScherr3 #ESCardio

Last night, I graduated as a full-fledged cardiovascular physician after 10 years of post-college education and training. I have to say, it feels pretty nice to be able to thank some of my mentors in person. Oh, and also, my cofellows are the best 😊🫀 #cardiotwitter

Goodbyes are always so bittersweet, but we could not be prouder of our graduating fellows! Congratulations, Class of 2024. We can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll do in the future! 🎉🎓🫀 #cardiotwitter @MountSinaiHeart @ng_seo @ohboyohchoy @ArjunBGupta @GayatriSetia
