AI is transforming clinical trials—accelerating drug discovery, optimizing patient recruitment, and improving data analysis. But its impact goes far beyond research. As AI-driven innovation reshapes the clinical trial process, it’s also influencing broader healthcare trends, from personalized medicine to patient outcomes. Join this new webinar featuring Simran Kaur for an insightful discussion on what all of this means for the future of healthcare!

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue 9 , Page 724-735, August 27, 2024. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disease that leads to elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and risk of coronary heart disease. Current therapeutic options for FH remain relatively limited and only partially effective in both lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and modifying coronary heart disease risk.

David Didlake, EMT-P, RN, ACNP @DidlakeDW An early 80’s Female was transported to the ED with new-onset facial droop, slurred speech, and focal deficit. No previous medical history was reported. My colleauges and I (interventional cardiology) were asked to consult during workup. MRI Brain demonstrated Left MCA acute/subacute infarct, MCA/PCA watershed, and no hemorrhagic transformation.

Background Patients with low HEART (History, Electrocardiogram, Age, Risk factors, and Troponin level) risk scores who are discharged from the emergency department (ED) may present clinical challenges and diagnostic dilemmas. The use of downstream non-invasive stress imaging (NISI) tests in this population remains uncertain. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the value of NISI in risk stratification and predicting cardiac events in patients with low-risk HEART scores (LRHSs).

Abstract Aim Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing in incidence and is increasingly the most common heart failure (HF) diagnosis. Patients with HFpEF are often excluded from specialist HF services which has negative impacts on their healthcare experiences and health-related outcomes. As emerging evidence-based treatments are being incorporated into clinical guidelines, it is timely to focus on the management of this phenotype.

Sometimes you see an ECG strip, look at it and then put it away again with the thought: I don't understand this. But if you take your time and analyze the ECG systematically, you will usually come to a good result. This is an example of such an ECG (certainly not the most difficult). The explanation is shown in the 2nd picture.

Traditional classifications categorize atrial fibrillation (AF) into paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent, but recent advancements in monitoring have revealed AF as a continuous variable, challenging existing paradigms. AF burden, defined basically as the amount of time spent in AF during a monitored period, has emerged as a crucial metric. This review assesses the evolving landscape of AF burden and its measurement methods, diagnostic modalities, and impact on outcomes.

Background On the one hand, the primary coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) can cause recurrence of chest pain, prompting medical examinations and further healthcare costs, while on the other hand, it can lead to myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. Nevertheless, there is not any agreement on the optimal treatment for primary CSFP, so we decided to examine the effectiveness of sildenafil in this context.
