Lipoprotein(a): one of the biggest challenges in cardiovascular prevention – and now one of the hottest topics at #EAS2025! This workshop reinforced a key message: the Lp(a) era is here, and we must integrate it into routine clinical thinking. #LipoproteinA #Cardiology #EASSome

Time off lipid-lowering therapy for women with FH due to pregnancy and breastfeeding can be cumulatively very impactful. Goal is to minimize pregnancy-related off-treatment time. Presented by Kirsten Holven at #EASCongress2025

Great #EASCongress2025! There was a time when I would report the Lp(a) topics, but its now no longer possible. I would estimate 30% of sessions/posters were about Lp(a)! Next yr it might be >50%. So much energy and excitement to better understand it and reduce Lp(a)-mediated

If you think IMDs are child’s play, think again. Adult IMD services are growing rapidly and 40% of their patients were diagnosed as adults. You won’t find rare until you think rare. #thinkmetabolic #raredisease open.spotify.com/episode/7v93Aj…

Preventive Cardiology is now centre stage Cardiometabolic medicine needs to be an independent Training theme for cardiologists in training Cardiologist should now be diabetologists, nephrologists, hypertension & obesity specialists and vice versa academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva…

Fascinating series considering primary and secondary Multiple Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency presentations. These may be highly responsive to vitamin therapy and may occur secondary to common drugs such as Sertraline. Have a look 👇and find Eamon #BIMDG2025

🧬 Genetic testing in severe hypercholesterolemia isn’t just academic 👉🏼 it changes lives ❤️ In a landmark study of 👥 with LDL-C ≥190 mg/dL, ~1 in 5 had an FH mutation. Carriers had CAD 22 years earlier ‼️ & ~3x risk 👉🏼 despite similar LDL. 💡 Early ID = early action.
