Mashup Score: 8Teni Brown, MD, Receives RWJ Harold Amos Award - 5 day(s) ago
Of the 168 million women living in America, it’s estimated that more than 50 million will experience a pelvic floor disorder (PFD) in their lifetime. “PFDs are debilitating and associated with significant morbidity and reduction in quality of life as individuals age. Unfortunately, Black women are underrepresented in PFD research which is something that needs to change.” Teni Brown, MD, FACOG, assistant professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology in the Division of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic

Heart failure (HF) is 1 of the major challenges of our time, given its increase in prevalence and related mortality rates. Foundational pharmacological therapies, including angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs), beta-blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), and sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitors (SGLTis), have been established for HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Moreover, recent trials have established the role of SGLTis in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

@POTUS Recently @FudimMarat and colleagues highlighted the landscape of device therapies in @JCardFail. Imagine the difference we might make when we think outside the box, considering social risk & tailoring interventions to the patient in front of us. https://t.co/C0vKCenM47

Mashup Score: 33Race, substance use, and evaluation for heart transplantation: insights from a large urban medical center - 2 month(s) ago
It is unknown whether racial disparities in access to heart transplantation (HT) are amplified when coupled with substance use. We examined patients evaluated for HT over eight years at an urban transplant center. We evaluated substance use and race/ethnicity as independent and interactive predictors of HT and left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. Of 1148 patients evaluated for HT, substance use was cited as an ineligibility factor in 151 (13%) patients, 16 (11%) of whom ultimately received HT.

The transition to a new calendar year is a time for reflection. The year 2023 was one of rapid growth and change in the landscape of heart failure (HF). Together, we pushed the boundaries of science and continued to refine our understanding of the very ethos of “heart failure.” Here we reflect on and highlight the milestones achieved over the last year at the Journal and give a glimpse into what’s to come for our #JCFfamily prior to embarking on our 30th year of JCF publishing in 2024.
