Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature: “Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.” The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

@OuzounianMD @DVervoort94 So young and impactful. Such a loss! My thoughts with the family.

The world has lost a shining light. @DVervoort94 walked this world with grace, compassion, and a deep passion for health equity. We are heartbroken to have lost Dom and are grieving with his family and all those around the world who knew him and loved him.

This is an important topic for patients and physicians who work in this area. I am interested in what people believe and what they do with a positive bubble study post pfo closure. Feel free to weigh in on our opinion.

@CHS_AUA Well deserved!!!

Excellence in education! Watch how dedication, hard work, and time management led Raisa-Rose Jakmakian to become the Best Student of the year!

Thank you @nytimes for highlighting today the problems about the recent @AHAScience intermittent fasting abstract. We are getting more insights into the actual data. As pointed out by @sameerbansilal there were 31 cardiovascular events in a total of 414 individuals in the <8 hour eating group over a median 8 year follow up. This group only represented 2% of the total sample (414 out of 20,078 individuals). There are 60% more smokers in this group (23.2% vs. 6.6% in the control group) and 300% more Black Americans in this group. The assessment of <8-hour duration of eating was based on only 2 days of dietary recall. nytimes.com/2024/03/20/wel… There are many cofounding variables in this analysis making their conclusion and the headlines “time-restricted eating linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death” WRONG. @kaulcsmc @CMichaelGibson @SatchinPanda @EmilyManoogian @DrMarthaGulati @DrJMarine @SantosGallegoMD @UCSDHealthSci @UCSDCardiology @ErinMichos @JohnKastelein @askdrfatima @RBP0612 @MonSangh @JReinerMD @HeartDocSadiya @hmkyale @ACCinTouch @purviparwani @DrRyanPDaly @DLBHATTMD @dranulala @washingtonpost @Medscape @theheartorg @MWilkinsonMD @rblument1 @Dmozaffarian @CBallantyneMD @pnatarajanmd

@sameerbansilal @PamTaubMD @kaulcsmc @CMichaelGibson Hard to judge based on this table only. How long and consistently they kept the diet? Adjusted for which factors?

The Intermittent fasting 8-Hr window abstract. The alarming <8 hr window group is 2% of the sample and 3.6% of the total CVD events. Folks, nothing to see here. @PamTaubMD @kaulcsmc @CMichaelGibson

This made my day:-)

@ToivoKlaar Someone pls inform him who killed whom. Useless info otherwise...

Worrying report of shootings and death on 🇦🇲-🇦🇿border. 🇪🇺 is constantly engaged with Baku and Yerevan. It is essential that calm prevails on the ground and decisive progress is achieved at the negotiating table.

@melaniejoly @EUmARMENIA Thank you @melaniejoly and thank you Сanada for your support in these extremely hard times for Armenia!!!

Always great to work with you Eduardo!!! Congrats! An important contribution indicating more consistency is needed in evaluation of AVC in TAVI pts.

Shocking, indeed!

@fasc1nate We heard a lot about him when I was at school. Such a great example of human bravery and selflessness for all of us!!!

Shavarsh Karapetyan, a retired Armenian swimmer, had an incredible experience in 1976. After finishing a 26 km (16 mile) run, he heard a loud noise and found out that a trolleybus had crashed into a reservoir. The trolleybus had sunk 10 meters (33 ft) deep, about 25 meters (82 ft) from the shore. Despite the difficult conditions of dirty water and poor visibility, Karapetyan bravely dived in and used his legs to break open the back window of the trolleybus. With great determination, he saved 46 out of the 92 passengers, rescuing 20 lives. But the cold water and broken glass caused many cuts on Karapetyan's body, and he had to stay in the hospital for 45 days. He faced more problems like pneumonia and sepsis. Although he eventually recovered, the damage to his lungs meant he couldn't continue his successful swimming career. "I knew I could only save a limited number of lives. I was scared of making mistakes. It was so dark down there that I could hardly see anything. Once, I accidentally grabbed a seat instead of a person during a dive. I could have saved a life instead. That memory still haunts me in my nightmares," he said. In 1985, Karapetyan came across a burning building where several people were trapped. Without hesitation, he bravely entered the building and started rescuing the people inside. Unfortunately, he suffered severe burns during the rescue and had to go to the hospital again. In his later years, Karapetyan moved to Moscow and started a shoe company called "Second Breath." Surprisingly, he is still alive today and actively manages his business.
