Recognizing a need to update the 2021 criteria for monitoring disease progression in patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), a group of international experts shared new proposed criteria, including recommendations for thresholds and monitoring frequency, in a recent Position Statement published in JACC: Heart Failure.
An analysis of young adults with LDL-C ≥190 mg/dL found statin therapy was initiated in <50% within five years, with a decline in follow-up testing signaling a further significant care gap.
In patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS), defined using Heart Rhythm Society criteria, left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) was found to be feasible and provide stable long-term lead performance, according to a single-center retrospective study published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.
Two recent studies published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions provide evidence of improved cardiac remodeling post transcatheter valve replacement (TTVR) and transcatheter valve annuloplasty (TTVA).
