- Lower Ambient Temperature Associated With Greater SCA Risk at Marathon Races in JapanRunners participating in Japanese marathon races largely held in autumn and winter had a greater risk of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) when the ambient temperature was lower at race start, while no significant relationship between ambient air pollutants and SCA risk was identified, according to a study published June 30 in JACC: Advances.
- Mechanical Leaflet Splitting is Feasible in High-Risk Patients Undergoing Valve-in-Valve TAVRMechanical leaflet splitting in patients with anatomically high-risk undergoing valve-in-valve (ViV) TAVR saw high procedural success, according to a study published June 25 in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions.
- ACCEL Lite: Cardiorenal Outcomes with Tirzepatide Compared with Dulaglutide in Patients with Diabetes and CVDIn this interview, Matthew Martinez, MD, FACC and Steven E. Nissen, MD, MACC examine the SURPASS-CVOT Randomized Clinical Trial.
- Antihypertensive Medications in Pregnancy and Lactation: A Practical ApproachEffective management of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is critical to reducing maternal morbidity, improving fetal outcomes, and mitigating long-term cardiovascular risk. This review provides a practical framework for antihypertensive medication selection in pregnancy and the postpartum period.
- Accelerated Aging in the Adult Congenital Heart Disease PopulationAging is a major risk factor for most diseases, and accelerated biological aging is increasingly recognized in many chronic diseases. Chronological age refers to the time that has elapsed since birth, whereas biological age reflects functional, cellular, and tissue age.
