New in #EJPC⚽ As excitement builds for the upcoming FIFA World Cup, the randomized #MY3F study reminds us that football is more than a game.
In patients with CAD or prior MI, once-weekly football training improved fitness, blood pressure, weight, and depressive symptoms—supporting its role in secondary prevention. ❤️ ow.ly/EguI50Z8sji

🧪 Target Trial Emulation (TTE) is reshaping cardiovascular real-world evidence.
By designing observational studies to mimic hypothetical RCTs, TTE helps reduce avoidable bias and strengthen causal interpretation in clinical research.

Even before diabetes develops, dysglycaemia may increase AF risk. ⚠️
A meta-analysis including 26.4 million participants showed that prediabetes was associated with ⬆️15% risk of AF, supporting a dose–response relationship across glucose levels.

🌍 Climate change is increasingly a cardiovascular health issue. Rising temperatures, air pollution, and extreme weather events are reshaping cardiometabolic risk profiles.
Is healthcare prepared for climate-resilient cardiovascular prevention?
