Pleased to have been a part of this genetic analysis of syncope. The result of a great collaboration with many teams and datasets. urldefense.com/v3/__https://a…$

TransformHF showed no significant difference between torsemide and furosemide in hospitalized heart failure patients. It is unfortunate that there was not a better diuretic. But the data seems quite clear.

#acc22 Omecamtiv mecarbil in Meteoric HF failed to improve peak VO2 in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. This well-designed study demonstrates the importance of randomized double-blind studies, even if the results are negative. globenewswire.com/news-release/2…

My four year old grandson’s Covid test just came back as positive. His mother asked him, “Do you know what Covid is?”
He responded, “It’s putting a Q-tip in your nose.”
Funny and sad at the same time. Fortunately, he is doing well so far.

Some musical gratitude for all the healthcare workers who do the impossible every day.

Simple Gifts, #songsofcomfort
