Very excited that our case report about an unusual case of a right sinus of Valsalva thrombus presenting as a MI made it into @jaccjournals. Was great working with Amerpreet Brar, @MichaelBashline and @SanonSaurabh on this! jacc.org/doi/10.1016/S0735-1…

Rate vs. rhythm control in patients with AFib and HF. Although, no significant difference in mortality the secondary outcomes showed significance in the increase of LVEF, 6 min walk distance and decrease in BNP in favour of rhythm control. Will this change physician’s practice?

As a Resident who provides care for many patients in deprived neighbourhoods this is extremely saddening to hear. I look forward to working with the faculty at @UPMCMercyIM to help combat this issue with the patients we serve. Thank you @jared_w_magnani for enlightening us.

In a recent study, @PittTweet and UPMC researchers found that patients with atrial fibrillation in deprived neighborhoods are less likely to receive anticoagulants for stroke prevention. @jared_w_magnani bit.ly/3wV0QDP
