APHRS 2025 is over and been amazing 🇯🇵 8 oral presentations, 6 posters and 2 LBCTs for the #CHRD Team 🎖️ And what about a squid that is so fresh it escapes from the plate? 🦑 @UniofAdelaide
#APHRS2025 @APHRSOfficial Always great to catch up with the team - current and past fellows of #CHRD @UniofAdelaide Japan was great, multiple presentations, 2 late breaking presentations and simultaneous publication @martinkstiles @HuiNam_Pak

Kicking off #APHRS2025 with an insightful session on “What is the best treatment for arrhythmias in patients with heart failure?” Fantastic presentation by CHRD member @JonathanAriya unpacking how AF intersects with HFrEF and HFpEF. #chrd @UniofAdelaide @PrashSanders

On behalf of senior author @gregorymmarcus and trial team: Honored to present the late-breaking clinical trial DECAF at #AHA25 today In contrast to conventional wisdom, coffee ☕️resulted in less AF #afib compared to abstinence! #SimPub @JAMA_current jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Does coffee increase AF #afib risk? Find out at #AHA25 this Sunday where on behalf of @gregorymmarcus and team I’ll be presenting the DECAF trial The first randomized trial on coffee and AF #afib @AHAScience #AHA2025 @UCSF @UniofAdelaide @Sunnybrook professional.heart.org/en/me…

Longer AF ablation waiting lists are resulting in poorer ablation outcomes BUT obtaining and maintaining sinus rhythm during the wait time could help. New data from @BlackpoolHosp @AArujuna @DrScottGall @PrashSanders

Among patients with #AtrialFibrillation, elevated BMI, and 1 or more additional cardiometabolic risk factors, aggressive risk factor management reduced arrhythmia recurrence over the 12-month period after catheter ablation. ja.ma/47ehz8t

🚨 New from #CHRD in JACC EP: Obesity presents a unique phenotype of HFpEF In AF patients, obesity & ↑ epicardial adipose tissue drive higher atrial pressures, pericardial restraint & greater prevalence of HFpEF Targeting weight loss may improve symptoms & reduce HF risk. authors.elsevier.com/a/1lqM6… @JonathanAriya @UniofAdelaide

Replying to @JonathanAriya
@JonathanAriya shows that many AF ablation patients have subclinical HFpEF — elevated filling pressures, impaired reserve, yet no ‘diagnosis.’ If it’s there and it matters, shouldn’t we be treating HFpEF while we ablate? 🔥❤️‍🩹 #AFib #HFpEF #CSANZ2025

HFpEF AFib = a toxic duo. @JonathanAriya work shows AF isn’t just a bystander — it worsens haemodynamics, drives symptoms, and fuels hospitalisations. If AF is part of the problem, shouldn’t ablation be part of the solution? 🔥❤️‍🩹 #AFib #HFpEF #CSANZ2025

🚨 New study out now! Can your pacing lead handle a hypertrophied septum? We developed an ex-vivo ovine model to test Stylet Driven vs Lumen Less Leads in thick septa. 🧠 SDLs went deeper, faster, and with less torque. 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.hrthm.2025… #EPeeps #LBBAP #CardioTwitter #HeartRhythm #CHRD @UniofAdelaide @HRSonline
