Genetic Variants Improve AF Risk Prediction
Added: 3 months ago Source:  Arrhythmia Academy
Atrial fibrillation (AF) has a complex genetic architecture, and a new study suggests that integrating information on common, rare, and somatic genetic variants can significantly improve risk prediction. Researchers developed an integrated genomic model (IGM-AF) that, when combined with clinical factors, enhanced the stratification of individuals at risk for incident AF.¹This cohort study… View more

Added: 1 year ago Source:  Radcliffe Cardiology
AUTHOR: Brad WilsonIn a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC), Dr Elias Björnson and his colleagues demonstrated that lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is approximately six times more atherogenic than low-density lipoprotein (LDL) per particle.Lp(a) is a lipoprotein particle that has long been recognised as a causal factor for coronary heart disease (CHD). However,… View more

Social Factors Impact Outcomes in HCM Patients
Added: 1 day ago Source:  Radcliffe Cardiology
While social determinants of health (SDOH) are known to influence outcomes in acquired cardiovascular diseases, their impact on conditions with a strong genetic basis, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), has been less clear.² A new study using data from the Sarcomeric Human Cardiomyopathy Registry (SHaRe) suggests that area-based social factors are independently associated with adverse… View more
