📌 Now published in the American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs A new article led by @LuigiSpadafora and @paola_pastena investigates 1-year clinical outcomes in ST-elevation vs non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI vs NSTEMI), based on over 21,000 patients from the international PRAISE registry. 🔍 Background & Objective Although STEMI and NSTEMI differ in acute management, long-term prognostic distinctions remain debated. This study aimed to assess whether 1-year outcomes after discharge differ between the two, adjusting for clinical complexity and treatment. 📊 Main Findings NSTEMI patients were older, with more comorbidities, yet received less intensive pharmacological treatment. While reinfarction appeared more frequent in NSTEMI, this was not significant after multivariable adjustment or propensity score matching. No meaningful differences in death, bleeding, or composite outcomes were observed. ✅ Conclusion When optimally managed, patients with NSTEMI may achieve outcomes comparable to those with STEMI. These findings support an equitable, guideline-based approach to post-MI care regardless of infarct type. 📖 Read the full article: doi.org/10.1007/s40256-025-0… @MarcoBernardiMD, @SABOURETCardio, @gbiondizoccai, @maciejbanach, @Albertopolimeni, @Fabri84Dascenzo

It is more and more common group of #patients, very challenging, therefore we need to know how to treat #lipiddisorders - the most common #CVD risk factor worldwide. Thanks to Prof. Agnieszka Mickiewicz for leading this important project💪 academic.oup.com/ndt/advance…

Amazing comprehensive review led by Prof. #CarlosEscobar on new #technologies application in #lipidology‼️Honored to be a part of this 👍 In this review we discussed on how emerging technologies expand our understanding of #dyslipidemia beyond the traditional #lipid #panel, examined their potential to enable #earlier, more personalized and durable #cardiovascular #risk reduction & highlighted the scientific, regulatory and ethical hurdles that must be cleared before these innovations can deliver widespread, equitable #benefit. Have a nice reading‼️ BTW, feel invited to the sessions during the European Society of Cardiology @escardio Congress #ESC2025 in Madrid, where I will discuss it further both in the session on 👉 New #perspectives in #cardiology (29 Aug., 10.00 am, Discovery Pole/North Convention Centre) and together with Carlos during the session on 👉 New #tools in cardiovascular risk assessment (30 Aug., 16:30-17:30, Tutorial 14/Hall 8). mdpi.com/2077-0383/14/14/498…

Have you ever checked your Lp(a)? Elevated levels affect ~1 in 5 people and 📈 CVD risk — it’s up to 6x more atherogenic than LDL-C. Just one test can make a difference. Ask your doctor and stay ahead @afgcicero @Unibo @maciejbanach @ExpertLipid @PoLACongress

Stress touches every part of our health — including the heart. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, but managing it matters. Talk to someone, find what helps you cope, and make space for calm 🧘‍♂️ @afgcicero @Unibo @maciejbanach @ExpertLipid @PoLACongress
