Congrats Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine MS4 Dan Mathew and WeAreNUHeart fellow Graham Peigh, MD, MSc for their presentation at American College of Cardiology #ACC23 exploring VCAM-1/ICAM-1 as common pathways of AF and HFpEF. Dan's first #ACC23 and a poster presentation! What a way to break the ice! #Icebreaker 🧊🔨

New insights into the prevalence of #AFib in #HFpEF/#HFmEF pts from the REDUCE LAP-HF II trial by Ravi Patel, Sanjiv J. Shah, MD, et al. Subclinical AF is a marker of risk for #HeartFailure and occurs more often in pts w/ abnormal left atrial size & function. bit.ly/3RUliAA #JACCHF

Now out in JAMA Network Open , Art Schuermans and I w/ Alex Reiner Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center examine the role of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) 🩸🧬 in future/incident development of heart failure and its subtypes (HFpEF and HFrEF) jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… 👇 (1/X)

More than 6 million people in the U.S. have heart failure, making it one of the leading causes of hospitalization in the country. Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine Prof. Sanjiv Shah (Sanjiv J. Shah, MD) explains how his team uses AI in diagnosis, and how it can improve health care: bit.ly/3UUPUn2

What's the mechanism by which cellular adhesion molecules are associated with #AFib and HFpEF? Read insights from the Multi‐Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) about VCAM-1 and ICAM-1. #AHAJournals Graham Peigh, MD, MSc Ravi Patel NM Cardiovascular ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…

Cardiology Grand Rounds NM Cardiovascular - recap #LBCT #ACC2024 - outstanding fellow led discussions. Will practice change? New hypotheses? PLUS 2 announcements: Jess Quaggin-Smith - Bonow research proposal award winner & WeAreNUHeart won American Heart Association fellow research award grant👏🏽

Amazing job by our fellow presenters and faculty moderators this morning recapping top line results from American College of Cardiology! Ravi Patel Alana A. Lewis, MD NM Cardiovascular Marysa Leya

Over 2 years of follow-up, atrial shunting in patients with HFpEF and HFmrEF led to reverse remodeling of left-sided chambers and increases in volume of right-sided chambers but no change in RV systolic function compared with sham. ja.ma/3Q2LuHC

Feinberg investigators have been selected to lead a $15 million American Heart Association research initiative studying the role of #inflammation in #HeartDisease. spr.ly/6019bcpfF

People can experience different outcomes from the same #HeartFailure therapies, which is why investigators are studying subgroups who may respond to an atrial shunt, a device that transfers blood from the left to right side of the heart: bit.ly/4diRUMP JAMA Cardiology
