In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at a recent article on proposed changes to the current cardiovascular (CV) subspecialty training path. He then examines an article on a novel left atrium (LA) staging framework that stratifies new-onset atrial fibrillation risk in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Finally, Dr…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at some of the important trials presented at this year's European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress. First, he evaluates the SINGLE-AF trial on DOAC therapy versus no anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation (AFib) with patients with intermediate stroke risk. Dr. Eagle then…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle evaluates how sacubitril/valsartan promotes cardiac remodeling, but not functional capacity, in nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Next, he examines the prognostic value of stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. Finally…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle evaluates how sacubitril/valsartan promotes cardiac remodeling, but not functional capacity, in nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Next, he examines the prognostic value of stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. Finally…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the relationship between lower cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and higher coronary artery calcium scores (CAC) and later-life dementia. He follows this with a look at a new State of the Art Review related to guidance on treating athletes with arrhythmia. He then offers a…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the wide variation in antithrombotic regimens after valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Next, he examines PARTNER-3, a 7-year study on TAVR versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) outcomes in low-risk patients. He then offers a perspective on…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at a post-hoc analysis of the API-CAT trial that showed recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) is uncommon but associated with poor short-term survival of patients with cancer-associated thrombosis. He follows with a look at an observational cohort study on how influenza…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at age, body mass index (BMI), and cardiovascular outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). He follows this with an examination of a new consensus statement about enhanced radiation protection in cath labs, then offers a perspective on particulate matter in the…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the feasibility of mechanical leaflet splitting in high-risk patients undergoing valve-in-valve TAVR. He follows this with an examination of lower ambient temperature and it association with greater SCA risk at marathon races, then offers a commentary on two studies that provide…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at withdrawing guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). He follows this with commentary on two important recently released ACC scientific statements: one on anti-platelet therapy for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at how genotype independently predicts heart failure outcomes in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). He then examines the ten-year follow-up of the PARTNER 2A trial and compares the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes to results from the Partner 2…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle reviews 21-year follow-up data from the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), showing that lifestyle intervention—but not metformin—reduces multimorbidity risk in prediabetes. He also highlights low rates of hypertension and hyperlipidemia treatment among U.S. adults with…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle highlights a study showing race and sex disparities in M-TEER outcomes, with Black patients presenting with more advanced disease, lower success, and higher heart failure readmissions than White patients, and women having lower success rates than men. He reviews the SOGALDI-PEF trial…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle highlights several noteworthy developments shaping cardiovascular and renal care. He first examines the FLOW analysis, underscoring the benefits of semaglutide for patients with chronic kidney disease, with particular attention to its impact on both renal and cardiovascular outcomes. He…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at recent research found in ACC's new expert decision pathway for postpartum cardiovascular care. He then offers insights from the ACC Chest Pain - MI Registry examining 'low risk' chest pain and its evaluation in the emergency departments. Next, a discussion of how negative…
In this week's View, Dr. Eagle examines recent research into maintaining weight loss with tirzepatide.
