Long wanted to tackle this topic close to my heart Opening Pandora's box on #PowerOfZero Resilience in Genetic Dyslipidemia! Let's explore why there's so much controversy and resistance—and the incredible implications and possibilities if we open our minds ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

Superb, thought provoking writing here by Khurram. Excellent summary of the complexity of the ASCVD process.

CAC/CCTA is the Imaging Modality of Choice in Refining ASCVD Risk in Primary Prevention... YAY or NAY?? Find out who wins the battle between Seamus Whelton and Matthew Budoff MD! Registration open through Aug. 1 at aspconline.org/2024congress @drmarthagulati @drmichaelshapir

Seamus Whelton 🥊 Matthew Budoff MD #ASPC2024 #greatdebates CAC 🆚 CCTA for primary prevention ♥️SW: data supports CAC, guidelines followed. Great tool to refine risk assessment in primary prevention & CTA doesn’t improve it 💙MB: plaque character matters, non calcified plaque #YesSCCT

Honored to share our findings at #AHA24! We uncovered a stepwise association between aortic valve calcium burden and kidney function decline (incident CKD, albuminuria, and increasing UACR). Deep gratitude to my mentors & colleagues for their support! Seamus Whelton Roger Blumenthal

The ⁦Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center⁩ had 🇮🇪 🇬🇪 & the Lone Star state well represented at #AHA24 ⁦Seamus Whelton⁩ ⁦Parag Joshi⁩ ⁦Nino Isakadze⁩ ⁦John William McEvoy⁩ ⁦Johns Hopkins Cardiology⁩

Nice to see that a few of the Top 1️⃣0️⃣ #ExpertAnalyses from American College of Cardiology this year are from the #cvPrev section!! Check it out!

Participants with TAC ≥500 had a high long-term risk for CVD and all-cause mortality. TAC primarily improved risk stratification among persons with CAC=0. Seamus Whelton Alexander C. Razavi Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center ow.ly/Msju50UXYYe

Excellent presentation by Dr. Natalie Marrero on utility of proBNP and hsTroponin to inform progression to severe aortic stenosis within aortic valve calcium groups! Natalie Marrero
