Obese HFpEF continues to rise with the obesity pandemic🫀 Excited to share🚨our meta-analysis (3 RCTs, n=1,876): GLP-1 RAs are a promising therapy— 🫀 ↓ HF events 60% 💪 ↑ QoL & 6MWD ⚖️ –9.8 kg ❗️ ↑ GI-related discontinuation 📊 Summary in the figure ⬇️ #CardioTwitter

New data from 10,421 patients with metabolic syndrome: the C-reactive protein-triglyceride-glucose index (CTI) outperformed 23 cardiometabolic markers — including TyG, CRP, NLR, and non-HDL-C — as a predictor of CV mortality. Patients in the highest CTI quartile had a 60% higher risk of CV death. Integrating inflammation + metabolic stress into a single index may be the key to better risk stratification in MetS. 📄 Journal of Clinical Lipidology (2026) #Cardiology #MetabolicSyndrome #CVDRisk #Inflammation #PreventiveCardiology authors.elsevier.com/c/1mptU6tb2EHe…

Here, I discuss why low blood pressure (BP) should not delay heart failure (HF) treatment. This podcast is part of the Managing HF Across the Spectrum: From Recognizing Symptoms to Implementing Appropriate Treatment initiative, supported by Bayer AG. learn.acc.org/Page/ManagingHF

Our Meta-analysis (4,583 pregnancies w/ PH): maternal mortality 6% (↑ w/ ES). Severe PH → 5× mortality; ↑sPAP & ES predict poor outcomes. Avoid pregnancy in severe PH/ES; sPAP useful for risk stratification.#PulmonaryHypertension#CardioObstetrics 🔗 jtd.amegroups.org/article/view/1…
