Thank you Mohamed Bella Jalloh, MD for the mention. It was wonderful working with this team! Harriette Van Spall, MD MPH Thank you for the opportunity, and for shaping me as a scientist. More details on our publication below: 👇

#EJHF #heartscience

Thrilled to share our latest paper published in the European Journal of Heart Failure #EJHF .
We evaluated the quality of reporting in HF RCTs in high-impact journals by assessing their adherence to #CONSORT reporting guidelines.

Regional variations in heart failure: a global perspective bit.ly/3tFWEK8🌎 🗺️

A nice demonstration of how a few extra events get you #precision with #statistical #significance .

The estimated size of treatment effect remains rather consistent.

#EventRates matter when assessing #TreatmentEffect (stating the obvious)!
