❤️ Comienza una nueva edición de #CorazónDeMamá. La Dra. Ana Múnera nos invita a sumarnos a esta campaña de @SIAC_cardio, @MujerSIAC , @GoRedForWomen y @IAHFnews para concientizar sobre la salud cardiovascular durante el embarazo. Este año hablaremos sobre la preeclampsia: prevención, síntomas y detección temprana. Porque informar también salva vida. 🔗siacardio.com/corazondemama2… #SaludMaterna #Preeclampsia

Among working-age adults in the US, COVID was associated with higher risks for acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD), or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) than influenza. The risk for AKI was greatest soon after infection, whereas the elevated risk for CKD persisted over a longer follow-up period. mdsc.pe/3NIzr4q

➡️ ICD decisions should not rely on EF alone. Insight from the DERIVATE NICM study 1,384 NICM patients (with chronic heart failure and LVEF < 50%) from 21 centres in the US and Europe ✅ The DERIVATE 2.0 score performs better than the current criteria A multimodal score combining: Sex LVEF LGE presence LGE location showed substantially improved prediction of major arrhythmic events compared to traditional EF-based models. #whyCMR
#EHJCVI 🫀ICD selection in NICM isn’t just about LVEF <35% or LGE %, location matters 📌 Midwall LGE identifies patients with higher MAACE risk ⚡DERIVATE Risk Score 2.0 (LGE location + LVEF + sex) delivers a +54% NRI vs LVEF alone. Read more 👉 doi.org/10.1093/ehjci/jeaf19…

Podcast - Predicting cardiovascular events from routine mammograms using machine learning In this episode of the Heart podcast, Digital Media Editor Professor James Rudd is joined by Dr Jennifer Barraclough from Sydney, Australia. They discuss her paper, which describes how a deep learning model can predict the risk of future cardiovascular events using mammogram images, along with age, and how this approach compares with existing methods, as well as the opportunities it might bring for improving the burden of cardiovascular disease among women. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a positive review wherever you get your podcasts. It helps us reach more people - thank you! Podcast: bit.ly/49czDRQ Paper: bit.ly/3LAFXZq
