Background Cardiology training is demanding and associated with high workloads. Poor lifestyle and health among clinicians may stretch workforces and impact patient care. It has not been established what impact training in cardiology has on the doctors undertaking it. We aimed to establish the prevalence of physical and mental illness, burnout and the ability to maintain a healthy lifestyle among cardiology trainees in the United Kingdom (UK).
In her Fall Clinical interview, Murina highlighted several key takeaways related to her talk titled ‘Managing Psoriasis with Oral Therapy: 2024 & Beyond.
Background Acute aortic dissection (AD) in pregnancy poses a lethal risk to both mother and fetus. However, well-established therapeutic guidelines are lacking. This study aimed to investigate clinical features, outcomes and optimal management strategies for pregnancy-related AD. Methods We conducted a retrospective multicentre cohort study including 67 women with acute AD during pregnancy or within 12 weeks postpartum from three major cardiovascular centres in China between 2003 and 2021.

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!
In an era of rapidly expanding use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), the management of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is far less well established than in those with trileaflet anatomy. Results of isolated surgical aortic valve replacement are excellent in suitable patients, and surgery also allows treatment of concomitant pathology of the aortic root and ascending aorta that is frequently encountered in this cohort.
(MedPage Today) -- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) yielded clinical benefit when given early in the disease process while patients still had no symptoms or other indication for aortic valve replacement, according to the EARLY TAVR.
To investigate the clinical effect of thoracoscopic segmentectomy in the treatment of lung malignancies less than 2CM in diameter. In this retrospective study, a total of 103 patients with lung cancer who received outpatient or inpatient treatment from December 2020 to May 2022 were selected and divided into the lobectomy group (n = 48) and the segmentectomy group (n = 55) according to different surgical methods.

Patient participation in cardiac rehabilitation programs is an essential part of reducing the risk of a second cardiovascular disease, according to a study published Oct. 26 in Cureus.
University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers have discovered that a genetic risk score can predict how Black individuals with hypertension respond to the blood pressure medication chlorthalidone and their likelihood of developing treatment-resistant hypertension.
It is well known that acting quickly in the event of a cardiac arrest is important, but what does a quick initial shock with a defibrillator mean exactly for patients' chances of survival? Researchers from Amsterdam UMC analyzed the data of 3,723 patients who had a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and concluded that for the first shock, every minute reduces the chance of survival by 6%.
Pretreatment of STEMI patients with a loading-dose of unfractionated heparin (UFH) at first medical contact (FMC) vs. in the catheterization lab (cathlab) was associated with improved spontaneous reperfusion of the infarct-related artery (IRA) without increasing the risk of major bleeding.
(MedPage Today) -- SAN DIEGO -- Finerenone (Kerendia) yielded minimal renal benefit in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction, according to a secondary analysis of the FINEARTS-HF trial. In fact, incidence.
There is an absence of definitive randomized controlled trial data to guide inpatient blood pressure (BP) treatment. Consequently, this paucity of data has resulted in clinical equipoise, in which the benefits and risks of various treatment approaches are unclear.
On October 29th, the global community observes World Stroke Day , an occasion dedicated to raising awareness about one of the most formidable threats to global health: stroke. Often called the "silent killer," stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Its insidious nature often occurring without warning has profound implications for patient outcomes, underscoring the need for proactive prevention, rapid response, and advanced treatment strategies.
The goal of the EARLY TAVR trial was to evaluate transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) compared with clinical surveillance among patients with asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis (stage C aortic stenosis).
In this interview at Fall Clinical Dermatology, Ferris and Bhatia highlighted several elements of skin cancer detection and management as well as unmet needs of patients.
Resistant hypertension is a condition where blood pressure levels remain elevated above target despite changes in lifestyle and concurrent use of at least three antihypertensive agents, including a long-acting calcium channel blocker (CCB), a blocker of the renin-angiotensin system (ACE inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker) and a diuretic. To be diagnosed as resistant hypertension, maintaining adherence to therapy is required along with confirmation of blood pressure levels above target by
Sedentary behavior, such as excessive sitting, increases risk of cardiovascular disease and premature mortality in the general population, but this has not been assessed in type 1 diabetes. Occupational sittin.
The goal of the DCB-BIF trial was to assess the efficacy of drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty of residual side branch stenosis in coronary bifurcation lesions treated with a provisional stenting strategy.
Two separate late-breaking clinical trials – EARLY TAVR and EVOLVED – presented at TCT 2024 explore whether early aortic valve intervention improves outcomes in patients with asymptomatic aortic stenosis (AS).
At AAO 2024, Wykoff discussed first-time extended results from AMARONE showing Restoret’s effectiveness in improving outcomes for patients with DME and nAMD.
(MedPage Today) -- For percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on de novo lesions, the DynamX bioadaptor not only matched drug-eluting stents (DES) in early performance but seemed to keep stent-related events from accruing after 6 months, according.
The optimal treatment of chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) represents to date a matter of debate as revascularisation has not shown a real advantage over optimal medical therapy (OMT) alone on long-term overall survival, and has recently been reaffirmed in the latest guidelines as a useful strategy only in case of an ineffective response to OMT. 1 Indeed, if the recently published ORBITA-2 trial demonstrated the benefit of revascularisation in relieving angina symptoms, 2 many other trials aiming
Jacqueline Khalil, DO, reviews findings from 2 studies about the association between hormone replacement therapy with IBS and gastric motility disorders.
In this episode, Andrea Price, MS, AACC hosts Tomasz Jurga, PharmD, BCPS, BCACP, BCCP, HF-Cert, AACC; Lydia Tran, PharmD, BCPS and Bruce Warden, PharmD, BCPS, FNLA, FASPC to discuss the role of the pharmacists of the care team for lipid management.
The goal of the HELP-PCI trial was to determine the efficacy and safety of administering unfractionated heparin at first medical contact versus during cardiac catheterization only in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
The goal of the EVOLVED trial was to assess the safety and efficacy of early aortic valve replacement compared with conservative management among patients with asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis, normal ejection fraction (EF), and presence of myocardial fibrosis on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).
