Happy to share our paper in @ESC_Journals. In this meta-analysis of randomized trials, we found that as compared with aspirin, P2Y12i was associated with 11% and 19% reduction in MACE and MI respectively. academic.oup.com/ehjopen/adv…

Just wrapped up another week at our fellow’s boot camp, packed with insightful conferences. @alaahoda2001 started the week with a case-based lecture on identifying EKG manifestations of myocardial ischemia.

Dear residency #Match2023 candidates, go where you are loved. Because magic happens when you grow up in an environment where you are loved and cherished for who you are.

Let's be clear. Eli Lilly should apologize for increasing the price of insulin by over 1,200% since 1996 to $275 while it costs less than $10 to manufacture. The inventors of insulin sold their patents in 1923 for $1 to save lives, not to make Eli Lilly's CEO obscenely rich.

We've all heard this story. A person goes for a stress test to ‘check their heart’ and is told they ‘passed with flying colours’. The following week they have a heart attack. How is this possible? Here's how. 🧵👇 /1

Friendly reminder to all residency/ fellowship applicants (but mostly myself)- this process or its outcome is not a referendum on who we are or what we are capable of. ✨ #Cardiotwitter #eras #WIC #MedTwitter

In this MA of pts with cardiogenic shock requiring VA-ECMO support, concurrent use of Impella (ECPELLA) was associated with a lower risk of short-term mortality. However, pts with ECPELLA had higher rates of hemolysis, limb ischemia, and CRRT. doi.org/10.1016/j.amjcard.20….

If we had a “Door-to-LDL <55” as a quality metric we assessed, the world would be more aggressive about getting LDL to goal and doing it quickly. Especially if public reported or reimbursed on #CVprev @DBelardoMD @AnnMarieNavar @ericpetersonMD @khurramn1 @MichaelJBlaha @DLBHATTMD
