Older adults with HF had substantial risk of kidney complications, with an estimated 6% progressing to dialysis in the year after HF hospitalization. ja.ma/4e3ciSk

The mortality benefit from renin-angiotensin system blockade was similar in Black and non-Black patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, finds meta-analysis involving more than 16 000 patients from 5 randomized trials. ja.ma/4bCpZGq

Proteomic biomarkers linking heart failure and frailty were identified using large-scale plasma proteomics in two independent cohorts. Several of these proteins demonstrated causal associations with both incident heart failure and frailty. ja.ma/4c0mcmb

ECG analysis of WNBA players confirms the utility of the international criteria in elite female basketball athletes and highlights the importance of generating additional female-specific athlete datasets. WNBA ja.ma/44A3Eqr

In this substudy of RENOVATE-COMPLEX-PCI trial, there was no difference in the risk of target vessel failure after complex PCI according to sex. There was no significant interaction between intravascular imaging-guided PCI and sex on the treatment effect. ja.ma/4ad6liT

In patients with obesity undergoing electrical cardioversion for AFib, dual direct-current cardioversion (DCCV) results in greater cardioversion success compared with single DCCV. ja.ma/3QYorhM John Ochsner Heart & Vascular Institute @OchsnerEp Ochsner Health @danielpmorin #epeeps

ViV-TAVR was associated with a lower incidence of postprocedural complications, faster recovery times, and similar 2-year all-cause mortality compared with redo SAVR. ja.ma/3yvEJIq

β-blocker prescription at hospital discharge was not associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes in patients with COPD and AMI. These findings support use of β-blockers in patients with COPD and recent AMI. ja.ma/3WRbmdY #ATS2024

Time-to-notch in lead I, when added to standard ECG criteria, improves the specificity of diagnosing LBBB. This may help inform patient selection for cardiac resynchronization or conduction system pacing. ja.ma/3JSgRRS

Exhilarated by JAMA Week this year!

Couldn’t be more proud to work with this exceptional group of editors, publishers, JAMA Network staff, & JAMA board members- all deeply committed to publishing with integrity & impact to improve health

In patients undergoing PCI, ticagrelor but not clopidogrel monotherapy was non-inferior to DAPT for the prevention of ischemic events and superior for net adverse clinical events. Major bleeding was similarly reduced with ticagrelor and clopidogrel. ja.ma/3Uwji19

Among older adults with atrial fibrillation receiving apixaban or rivaroxaban, treatment with diltiazem was associated with increased risk of serious bleeding compared with metoprolol. ja.ma/4dGMlbi
