It is always important to use new tools to reevaluate old questions. Here, we utilize advances in genetic epidemiology to find that alcohol consumption of any amount is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Krishna Aragam@KrishnaAragam

In @JAMANetworkOpen, our work led by @KiranBiddinger uses observational and genetic epidemiology in large biobanks to re-examine an age-old question: What is the association of alcohol intake and cardiovascular disease? jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Today in @NatureGenetics, we report the discovery of a common CD36 variant specific to individuals of African ancestry that increases risk of DCM, and may help explain the ~2x higher rate of DCM/heart failure in this population nature.com/articles/s4158…

Excited to see our study out now in @JAMACardio! ⬇️ Genetic risk of dilated cardiomyopathy (both rare variant carrier status and a common variant-derived polygenic score) strongly associates with several secondary cardiomyopathies
Krishna Aragam@KrishnaAragam

Our study now out in @JAMACardio on the shared genetics of cardiomyopathies triggered by pregnancy (PPCM), alcohol (ACM), and cancer chemotherapy (CCM). Work across 4 biobanks - Mass General Brigham, FinnGen, UK Biobank, and Million Veteran Program ja.ma/4pMpEIE

Here, we show the importance of both rare AND common genetic variation to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, especially for disease prediction and prevention.
Krishna Aragam@KrishnaAragam

3 weeks after FDA approval of mavacamtem for treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) our work in @JAMACardio led by @KiranBiddinger and @SeanJurgens examines relative and combined contributions of *rare* and *common* genetic variants to HCM risk …network-com.ezp-prod1.hul.harvard.edu/journals/jamac…

Our new study out now ⬇️ Genetic evidence links obesity to heart failure Many thanks to our coauthors @jpirruccello @shaan_khurshid @pnatarajanmd @JenHoCardiology @steven_lubitz @patrick_ellinor and as always my incredible mentor @KrishnaAragam
Krishna Aragam@KrishnaAragam

In @JAHA_AHA, more of our work led by @KiranBiddinger (1st year @Princeton undergrad), now using Mendelian randomization to probe potential causal links between a modifiable risk factor (BMI) and heart failure/cardiomyopathy ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…

So grateful for the kind words, but more importantly for the incredible mentorship and for the opportunity to work with such an accomplished and inspiring team of scientists.
Pradeep Natarajan@pnatarajanmd

For those who don’t know, 1st author of this paper covered by @ginakolata @nytimes 👇 is @kiranbiddinger who just graduated from HIGH SCHOOL. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… This prodigy is a product of Nature (@SudhaBiddinger) and Nurture (@KrishnaAragam) @Princeton @Milton_Academy

Most popular medical advice ever: “A glass of wine per day is ‘good for your heart’!” But is it true? Sadly no… Great writeup of buzz-killing work from @kiranbiddinger and @KrishnaAragam using sophisticated genetic methods to tackle this question nytimes.com/2022/03/29/hea…
