#AHA25 #CardioOncology Excited to highlight our lab’s #ARIC-cancer work by Dr. Sarah Malik and team: “The Use of Common Cardiovascular Medications Is Associated with a Comparable Decrease in CVD Risk in Cancer Survivors and Non-Cancer Patients.” Join her moderated presentation on Mon, Nov 10 (10:45–10:50 AM CT) in Clinical Science Zone 2.



#AHA25 Excited to present our work from @MCG_AUG with my team: “Unequal Access: Socioeconomic Deprivation & Travel Distance to Phase III Lipid-Lowering Trials in the Southern U.S.” Join me for my moderated poster session on Mon, Nov 10 (2:06–2:11 PM CT, Population Science Zone)!







Third moderated poster by @OelsayedMD presenting moderated digital poster - take home #1 Among 14,834 ARIC participants followed for 25 years, 54% were classified as obese by the newer central adiposity definition versus 27% by the traditional BMI-based definition. The newly defined group captured individuals with BMI 25–29.9 kg/m² but high waist circumference or ratio, 7% of whom reverted to non-obese status over time. @JHUBloombergCtr

Come, check out our work funded by @AHAScience #SFRN. Learn about role of ancestral gene ACKR1 and how that changes cancer risk in those with cardiovascular disease. Previously we had shown the role of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio. We were fortunate to collaborate with.@MeliD32 @JohnsHopkinsSPH #DrPlatz #AHA25 prior work by @OelsayedMD : ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.116… and sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @OncoAlert @ICOSociety



Obesity is an important overlap between cancer and cardiovascular disease. We talk about it here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40841102/. How does the new WHO definition: thelancet.com/commissions-do… of obesity shake up this risk factor- come and learn from @OelsayedMD at #AHA25 @AHAScience @ObesityAction @ObesityAdvocacy @LillyObesityInt @ICOSociety
