Can what’s on your plate help treat heart failure? 🍽️ @robmentz.bsky.social dives into what a decade of research says about medically tailored meals, and why they might be part of the future of HF care. 🫀 For more details on the study: bit.ly/4lk70EW
AI tools used by English councils downplay women’s health issues, study finds
AI tools used by English councils downplay women’s health issues, study finds
Exclusive: LSE research finds risk of gender bias in care decisions made based on AI summaries of case notes Artificial intelligence tools used by more than half of England’s councils are downplaying women’s physical and mental health issues and risk creating gender bias in care decisions, research has found. The study found that when using Google’s AI tool “Gemma” to generate and summarise the same case notes, language such as “disabled”, “unable” and “complex” appeared significantly more often in descriptions of men than women.

Always the best bit of the conference - debate with the hilarious but profoundly clever Will Watson insisting interventionalists stay away from HF! #BSHMDT2025
HFpEF session kicked off here at the first BSH MDT meeting in beautiful Cardiff, with a practical work up lecture by the amazing Becky Hyland #25in25
Phenomenal multimodality imaging session here at Advanced Imaging 2025 @bsecho.bsky.social @roysocmed.bsky.social @rositazakeri.bsky.social taught me so more MRI tips today than I have ever known 🥰
Proportionality of MR matters for outcome of Functional MR intervention trials! Brilliant insights from Liam Ring @bsecho.bsky.social @roysocmed.bsky.social
Off to a flying start here at Advanced Imaging 2025 here @roysocmed.bsky.social with @bsecho.bsky.social Loving this theory of maldistribution of workload predicting response to CRT

Are we at an AI tipping point? What are the the challenges? Interesting session on AI #acc25 #AI @accintouch.bsky.social
From JAMA Cardiology: Finerenone was effective in heart failure patients with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction, regardless of atrial fibrillation (AF) status, and new-onset AF was linked to higher risk of adverse outcomes. #ACC25 https://ja.ma/4iKwgDk
Check out @drmarthagulati.bsky.social’s insights on the WARRIOR Trial #ESCTVOnTheRoad #ACC245
Exciting! #STRIDE trial just presented at #ACC25 @accintouch.bsky.social . #Semaglutide improved mean walking distance, symptoms, major limb events & quality of life in patients with #T2D & #PAD. We have a new drug now to help PAD patients! #CardioSky
The STRIDE trial demonstrated that semaglutide significantly improves function, symptoms, and health-related QoL in patients with symptomatic #cvPAD and T2DM. Get the full clinical trial details here ➡️ bit.ly/42dnA1n #ACC25 #CardioSky #MedSky

Baroreflex activation therapy modulates baroreceptor nerve activity, & has been shown to improve exercise capacity & QoL in HFrEF. This JCF brief report presents a real-world analysis showing that BAT reduces hospital visits & LoS. #THT2025 🔗 bit.ly/4aW92Y2
Food for thought? Maybe because access to these interventions will always be limited where I am, but I am always sceptical. Ready to be proven wrong
Journal of Cardiac Failure@jcardfail.bsky.social · 2y ago🔥 Science Alert! REBALANCE-HF assessed permanent ablation of the right greater splanchnic nerve in HFpEF. In this sub-study, the authors found that permanent GSN ablation reduced stressed blood volume, thus reducing RAP & PCWP. #THT2025 🔗 bit.ly/4hXV75Q
🚨New science alert! HM3 LVADs are associated w/hemodynamic related events like RVF. In this prospective RCT, pts who received a novel RV protection strategy upfront post-LVAD implant had better outcomes & less RVF. #THT2025 🔗: bit.ly/3CEDDN7
🫀 A new study validates the SPICT (Supportive and Palliative Care Indicator Tool), which identifies hospitalized HF pts at high mortality risk. Key Findings: ✔ SPICT-JP +: >3x ⬆️ mort risk ✔ Aids in advance-care planning for EoL decisions. 🔗https://bit.ly/4g0Lou8
Current guidelines for primary prev ICD might not apply to contemporary pts given advances in HF Rx. Or do they? 🌟 This joint publication in #JCF & @hrs_journal summarizes data to date and proposes clinical trial to reassess. 🔗 bit.ly/3CEUj7a
This 🔥 new brief report describes a first-in-human feasibility study to evaluate the safety/efficacy of the Reprieve System, a bedside fluid mgmnt device that can 1) measure UO 2) semi-auto titrate IV diuretics 3) titrate saline replacement #THT2025 🔗 bit.ly/4huGrvq
Acute HF differs from chronic HF, especially in HFmrEF/HFpEF, due to marked neurohormonal activation, which serves as a therapeutic target. In this 🔥 Perspectives piece, the authors describe the role of rapid uptitration of neurohormonal blockade in these pts👇 🔗 bit.ly/4gF4ned
Is TTR biology the sole driver of disease progression? In an era of multiple therapies for ATTR-CM, is choosing one disease-modifying agent over another as important as early disease recognition & treatment? Dr. Mathew Maurer tackles this question! bit.ly/42MGNZN
New science 🚨! In this new 🔥#JCFIgnite! Dr. Yogita Rochlani, Dr. Enklajd Marsela, and Dr. Ulrich Jorde discuss the evidence behind the AccuCinch device, the CorCinch-HF trial & the potential & limitations of this novel therapy. #THT2025 🔗 bit.ly/3CC3WUb
🚨 SotA Review alert! The profile of pts with acute HF has evolved over time. In this review, the authors describe the changing paradigm of treating pts with acute HF with escalating doses of neurohormonal blockers as well as anti-inflam Rx. 🔗 bit.ly/3WYvHNk
