A new #ARIC study led by @YasuHONDA4 showing associations of 5th-generation troponin T with #CVD outcomes Particularly potent associations with #HeartFailure & peripheral artery disease #cvPAD @yejinmok @JunichiIshigami @CBallantyneMD @LizSelvin sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New #ARIC study showing elevated risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm #AAA in both symptomatic and asymptomatic #cvPAD 🦵. Major clinical guidelines recommend AAA screening mainly in symptomatic PAD, thus this finding has implications @KuniMatsushita bit.ly/3vfbOCUbit.ly/…

In a population-based cohort, each daily cup of coffee was associated with a 3% reduced risk of arrhythmia. Mendelian randomization analysis failed to reveal evidence that caffeine increases the risk of incident arrhythmias ja.ma/3DUxUhT @DrEJKim @gregorymmarcus

Super excited about the SSaSS trial being published. Potassium-enriched salt substitute reduced the risk of stroke, major cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality in a region of China with high salt intake. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

@SamihaKhan22 @KuniMatsushita @ATHjournal @JohnsHopkinsEPI @JHUWelchCenter Thank you Dr. Matsushita and Samiha!!

@KuniMatsushita @ATHjournal @YasuHONDA4 @JohnsHopkinsEPI @JHUWelchCenter Congratulations Yasu!@YasuHONDA4

Thanks @ATHjournal for featuring our recent article suggesting the importance of considering #cvPAD when studying psychosocial factors & #CVD Congrats @YasuHONDA4 for the first paper after coming to @JohnsHopkinsEPI @JHUWelchCenter Several papers in the pipeline #WelchWOW

A new #ARIC study showing depressive symptoms and social support associated with #cvPAD but not necessarily with #CHD or #stroke. #PAD should be included when studying psychosocial factors & #CVD. @YasuHONDA4 @yejinmok @LizSelvin @KuniMatsushita atherosclerosis-journal.com/article/S0021-…

Study of measuring LVEF and LV strain in 4,960 older adults in ARIC suggests that current routine assessments of LV function may substantially under-estimate the prevalence of prognostically important impairments in systolic function in late life ja.ma/3tF8uyn

Hot off the press! New #ARIC study showing depressive symptoms associated with risk of #CVD particularly #cvPAD led by @YasuHONDA4 PAD should be included when evaluating #CV impact of psychosocial factors @JHUWelchCenter @yejinmok @LizSelvin authors.elsevier.com/a/1d5JO4%7Evz2…

CT density <32.9 HU and RI ≥ 1.08 are associated with lipid-rich plaque on NIRS imaging. These findings underscore the synergistic value of CT density and positive remodeling to detect lipid-rich plaque by CCTA.@ATHjournal @society_eas @ELS_Cardiology atherosclerosis-journal.com/article/S0021-…

In stable CAD patients, elective coronary revascularisation plus medical therapy led to reduced cardiac mortality compared to medical therapy alone. Discover more from this meta-analysis in EHJ! ow.ly/Fvoh50ER0if #CAD #PCI #CABG #OMT #cardiotwitter @escardio @ESC_Journals
