We looked at #LVAD outcomes through a #genetics lens. In our study, patients with pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants had a higher risk of early #RVfailure, independent of ischemic or nonischemic etiology. #GeneticTesting may inform perioperative risk. Led by @_ESilver !

Association between genetics variants and clinical outcomes in patients with left ventricular assist device

Meta-analysis: AAV gene therapy causes myocarditis in 6%, peaks week 2, mostly mild, only at high doses >10^13 vg/kg @IacopoOlivotto @AlessiaArgiro @_ESilver ahajrnls.org/41irOou

How do patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and their families view genetic testing? 🧬
This qualitative study shows provider trust and family protection drive testing, while stress and insurance concerns create barriers.

111 soon-to-be UConn made doctors matched in the Class of 2025 and together they enjoyed the thrill of a lifetime. This was #UConnMed's largest matching class to date, with 24 staying right here at UConn for residency. #MatchDay2025

Congratulations to @QuanBuiMD on the release of this important new AHA statement! @UCSDCardFellows @UCSDHealthSci @UCSDHealth
This statement provides resources for the understanding and use of direct-to-consumer genetic tests in clinical care.

Cardiometabolic consequences following🫀txp are 2/2 obligate immunosuppression and drug interactions limiting use of high-intensity statins.
We observed a sig📈in atherogenic lipids which was assoc w/⬆️risk of CAV.

Our Story is Out - on BioRxiv! Humbled to have worked with such a great team of scientists to investigating how #SGLT2 inhibitors provoke their astounding cardiac benefits.
We think this one is groundbreaking: Do you wonder how #SGLT2 inhibitors protect from heart failure? We show that #empagliflozen directly activates PANK1, rate-limiting for CoA synthesis, in human hearts. You read it here first! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
