Exciting insights from our BSCMR Valve Consortium, presented at #CMR2024 and featured in #EHJ: In severe AS, myocardial scar detected by #whyCMR pre-operatively is linked to long-term survival post-AVR. This underscores theimportance of fibrosis for post-op risk stratification.

In ORBITA-STAR, angina verification with an ischaemic stimulus powerfully predicted response to PCI. #EuroPCR2024 Perhaps we have been too focused on treatment when the problem always lay in the diagnosis! Published today in #JACC jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.โ€ฆ Rasha Al-Lamee

ORBITA-STAR at #EuroPCR is a fascinating & successful study of type of chest pain as a predictor of PCI success. Very difficult to ascertain if angina caused by ischemia is what patients felt. This was a concern of Gruentzig's 40 yrs ago! Christopher Rajkumar Rasha Al-Lamee #AngioHistory

Excellent discussion of ORBITA-STAR by Michael Chen Simple findings like those made in this study pave the way to solve a major clinical problem. In stable patients, persistent angina is PCIโ€™s Achillesโ€™ heel TCTMD PCRonline ๐Ÿซ€ Rasha Al-Lamee

I think so, what else explains an initial high event rate which then subsides (aortic stenosis doesnโ€™t get better!)? Great if you can manage the first 6 months of subtraction anxiety - event rate then tracks the TAVR arm. Psychology so important in clinical trials. John Mandrola, MD

Are the Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC) for revascularization still aligned with the latest evidence? New insights from ISCHEMIA challenge key assumptions. My two cents in Circ: CQO Itโ€™s time to rethink outdated priorities. tinyurl.com/cupe7hx8
