A lot of us have noticed that our ATTR-CM patients have commonly led extremely active lives. From a Danish matched cohort - occupations in agricultural work and higher upper-body load suggest mechanical stress as a risk signal. doi.org/10.1016/j.jaca…

🚨 Hot off the press: JACC Advances SGLT2i ↓ myocardial glucose uptake on FDG-PET: ▪️ 374-pt matched cohort ▪️ “No uptake” in 65 % on SGLT2i vs 37 % controls ▪️ Total myocardial glycolysis ⬇️ despite ↑ prescan glucose Metabolic shift may underlie CV benefits & carries implications for PET imaging protocols involving patients on SGLT2i. Led by @BrettSperryMD @MidAmericaHeart doi.org/10.1016/j.jaca…
