We provided free CVD risks screening to ~ 300 people in my remote hometown of Jirapa, Ghana. >80% were 1st time BP checks. Many were hypertensive and were initiated on meds. Join us! @SethShayMartin @CiccaroneCenter @akoma_plus @hopkinsheart

PASSED #echo boards! Huge relief! Three thoughts (As a current trainee and prior teacher): ✅ If you failed, I'm sorry. You've come really far just to take the test ✅ If pass rate is ~80% - 81% last year - test quality is poor and/or fellow education is poor. Either way, for a certification exam that's unacceptable. For context, Step 2 pass rate is 97% ✅ 9 weeks for result. Say they need time to check qs. If that's necessary the qs were poorly constructed to begin with. Consider above Question: How do you join NBE to address this?

Pretty shocking from @NEJM Effectively disguising an ad like this is Buzzfeed or something Certainly more explanation needed
Was surprised to see this - can it be true that @nejm is publishing sponsored content that looks like an article in its NEJM AI publication? I am curious how they are vetting content. How much does it cost to have a sponsored article? Or does that just mean it is open access?

Prevalence of pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants of CMP associated genes in complicated myocarditis 22% in adults and 45% in children! Sarcomeric gene variants more prevalent in complicated myocarditis. #JACCHF @JACCJournals jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jchf.… jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jchf.…

So appreciative of @drjohnm for covering the suspension of RECOVER IV in this episode DanGer Shock was extremely exciting, but I can't believe this was cancelled on the results of one trial Really wonder about conflicts of interest here medscape.com/viewarticle/100…

What a sad reflection of our society that @johnshopkins is now requiring a weapons search to enter the building. Going to work feels like going through the TSA. Take my stethoscope out of my bag? What theater, so depressing

🎯 VT ablation in desmoplakin-ACM patients is effective in reducing the VA burden of the disease, but recurrences are common. ⚡️ Most VT circuits are epicardial, with both LV and RV low voltage abnormalities. #JACCEP @JACCJournals @gasperettimd jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacep…
