Thanks Michael Lane for organizing the first event in this important awareness initiative!

The V122I variant in the TTR gene is found in 3-4% of people in the United States with African ancestry, putting them at risk for developing ATTR amyloidosis.

Congratulations Adnan Chhatriwalla and Chetan Huded on this important paper showing that 44% of patients who underwent MTEER in the TVTR were COAPT-ineligible.

Ineligible patients had similar 30d health status but ⬆️ 1yr death/HFH compared with eligible patients.

Important article from the National Amyloidosis Center on prognostic implications of albuminuria in ATTR-CM.

Progressive renal failure, need for escalating diuretics, and albuminuria are bad signs.

Great to work with you on this editorial Shahzeb Khan and Javed Butler!

As a general fellow, I was committed to a career in heart failure, but Bruce Wilkoff still took major interest in training me to put in devices and pull me into the EP world.

I will always remember his patience and encouragement.
