Our new study from #JupiterGroup with @SABOURETCardio @dan_atar @mmamas1973 ☀️#IPF and long term prognosis after #PPCI in #STEMI pts. The association held across both sensitivity analyses: 3-year truncated HR 1.78 (1.23-2.58) and post-discharge landmark HR 1.52 (1.04-2.21). Single centre and observational, so external validation is the next step. doi.org/10.1055/a-2945-5355

What are the latest developments in atrial fibrillation, blood pressure management and cardiovascular prevention?   @dan_atar shares his key takeaways from Hot Lines 8 and 9, where new evidence explored integrated AF care, ablation strategies, exercise interventions, long-term blood pressure control, dementia risk, and prevention in patients with chronic kidney disease.   #ESCCongress

I am deeply honored by the occasion to receive the “outstanding research article 2025” award from our hospital OUS, for our BETAMI-DANBLOCK article in the NEJM. This was huge teamwork, and I thanked the co-workers at OUS/UiO, my co-Chair, and the entire CV community in NO & DK.

A great honor to welcome @ESC_President Thomas Lüscher to Bergen and the NCS Spring Meeting. His talk on AI and the future of cardiovascular medicine was truly thought-provoking. (Take a look at the Elon Musk quote on the first photo🫣)

At #CVCT2025 I reviewed the nonlinear basic discovery arc underlying clinical development from autologous #CDCs #postMI to #deramiocel for #Duchenne #cardiomyopathy culminating in the blockbuster #HOPE3 trial by @Capricor. Odyssean journey! @SmidtHeart @CIRMnews @CoalitionDMD

#CVCT2025: Beta-blockers post-MI have been discussed for the last 50 years. Early trials firmly documented survival benefits, but the entire landscape has changed. Contemporary trials now provide clear answers. Join us, December 8-10, Washington DC: lnkd.in/dyg5BMwm #CVCT
