November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: Pacemakers reconditioned with an FDA-approved protocol worked as well as new devices in a study of nearly 300 people in seven low- and middle-income countries. The study compared the function and safety of reconditioned pacemakers to new devices at 90 days.
November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: An electronic message to “nudge” patients to get a flu vaccine highlighting the cardiovascular benefits of flu shots improved vaccination rates among more than two million adults in three clinical trials in Denmark. The research observed greater improvements in vaccination, indicating that this nudge was particularly effective, among people with a history of heart attack.
November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: A study of three pills that combined two types of blood-pressure-lowering medications into one pill found that all combinations worked equally well among adults in India. Results from the TOPSPIN trial found that any two-medication combination lowered most study participants’ blood pressure to 140/90 mm Hg or less.
November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: The CLEAR SYNERGY trial found that spironolactone may reduce the risk of new or worsening heart failure; however, it did not significantly impact the rate of death, new heart attack or stroke. More research is needed to further explore the potential for spironolactone, a blood pressure medication, to prevent heart failure and its long-term impact on an individual’s heart health after a heart attack.
November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: Edoxaban, a medication taken orally to prevent blood clots from forming, was found to be as effective and safe for stroke and blood clot prevention in patients after heart valve replacement surgery as warfarin, the current standard treatment. Unlike warfarin, edoxaban does not require regular blood tests to monitor clotting activity and does not interact with food or other medications, which simplifies treatment for patients, researchers noted.
November 17, 2024 — Research Highlights: The GLORIOUS trial found that an intravenous infusion of exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) during heart surgeries involving bypass did not result in significant benefits at preventing death, stroke or organ injury compared to a placebo. Researchers noted, however, additional research is needed to determine if there are any benefits from other GLP-1 medications or from administration of exenatide for a longer period of time or at a larger dose than was tested in this study.
November 16, 2024 — Research Highlights: A new software program that uses artificial intelligence to read echocardiograms may reduce the wait times for results and lead to more timely medical care. PanEcho is the first AI system to automatically assess all key areas of heart health from echocardiograms with images from multiple views and identify which views are most relevant for each imaging task.
November 16, 2024 — Research Highlights: Pharmacists in the Veterans Health Administration System who received feedback on their patients’ heart failure medication rates, along with educational tools and targeted information, had a significant increase in the frequency at which they managed heart failure and adjusted heart failure medications in their patient populations. Providing primary care pharmacists with real-time feedback is a practical intervention that could improve heart failure and chronic disease management, the researchers noted.
November 16, 2024 — Research Highlights: In the first large trial of its kind, the anti-clotting medication rivaroxaban did not lower the risk of cognitive decline, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in people younger than age 65 who had atrial fibrillation (AFib) but no other stroke risk factors. AFib is the most common type of irregular heart rhythm in the U.
November 16, 2024 — Research Highlights: A new, multicenter study demonstrated that ablation treatment may be a better first option than medication for many heart attack survivors who develop abnormal electrical short circuits in their heart, which are episodes of dangerous rapid heart rhythms that can lead to fainting, heart failure or cardiac arrest. Currently, there are two main types of treatments used to prevent rapid heart rhythms: medications, which are usually used first, and if those fail, then a minimally invasive procedure called catheter ablation, in which the abnormal electrical circuits are cauterized.
November 16, 2024 — Research Highlights: A study of almost 13,000 adults with Type 2 diabetes and high systolic blood pressure assessed if a more intensive treatment approach with a lower blood pressure goal would decrease the risk of major cardiovascular events, including non-fatal heart attacks, strokes and hospitalized heart failure, or death due to cardiovascular disease. In the Blood Pressure Control Target in Diabetes (BPROAD) Study in China, approximately half of the trial participants received more aggressive treatment to lower their systolic blood pressure to less than 120 mm Hg, and the other half received treatment to lower their systolic blood pressure to less than 140 mm Hg.
