- Third-Trimester Pregnancy Biomarkers Associated With Greater CV RiskHigher concentrations in the third trimester of the pregnancy-specific biomarker soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) and the cardiovascular-specific biomarker high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) were both independently associated with subsequent cardiovascular disease, according to research published Feb. 18 in JAMA Cardiology, suggesting that pregnancy may be a unique and important opportunity for cardiovascular risk assessment.
- ACC CardiaCast: 2025 ACC Concise Clinical Guidance on Evaluation and Management of ATTR-CMIn this podcast, Drs. Michelle Kittleson and Jan Griffin provide a practical overview of evaluation and management of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) based on ACC’s 2025 Concise Clinical Guidance document the Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis Evaluation and Management: 2025 ACC Concise Clinical Guidance.
- REVELUTION: More Coronary Plaque Progression With Leuprolide Than Relugolix in Prostate CancerIn men with localized prostate cancer (PCa) treated with radiation and androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), treatment with the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) leuprolide was associated with a significant 12-month increase in coronary artery plaque volume when compared with treatment with relugolix, according to a brief report of the REVELUTION trial published Feb. 18 in JAMA.
- 20-Year Outcomes For PVI in Patients With Drug-Refractory Paroxysmal AFibTwenty years after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) during catheter ablation, stable sinus rhythm was maintained in a quarter of patients with symptomatic drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF), including those taking antiarrhythmic drugs and those who had multiple ablation procedures, according to findings from a study published Feb. 17 in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.
- Medtronic Clinician Update on New Evolut Valve Data Reinforces Need For Patient DialogueMedtronic has issued a letter and developed web resources providing an update on long-term reintervention rates associated with its Evolut R and Evolut PRO transcatheter heart valves, drawing on complete six-year and partial seven-year follow-up data from the Evolut Low-Risk Trial published on Feb. 16 in JACC.
