Eagle’s Eye View: Is Lower Cardiorespiratory Fitness Associated with Later-Life Dementia?
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at the relationship between lower cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and higher coronary artery calcium scores (CAC) and later-life dementia. He follows this with a look at a new State of the Art Review related to guidance on treating athletes with arrhythmia. He then offers a perspective on the use of vutrisiran in the treatment of amyloid burden. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores the TARTAN-HF study on NT-proBNP screening and its ability to identify undiagnosed heart failure (HF) among patients with diabetes.
