- ATTR-CM: Sex Differences, Delayed Diagnosis and Effect of AcoramidisThree recent studies, two published in JACC: Advances and a third published in JAMA Cardiology, investigate sex differences, delayed diagnosis and the effect of acoramidis on heart failure (HF)-related health status in patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
- ADVANCE OUTCOMES: Ralinepag Reduces Clinical Worsening For PAHRalinepag, a selective prostacyclin IP receptor agonist, significantly reduced the risk of first clinical worsening compared with placebo in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) but was associated with more adverse-event-related treatment discontinuations, according to results of the ADVANCE OUTCOMES trial published July 28 in The Lancet.
- PARTNER 3: 7-Year TAVR vs. SAVR Outcomes in Low-Risk PatientsBoth TAVR and SAVR were associated with a sustained, substantial improvement in patient-reported health status among patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) considered at low risk, according to the seven-year outcomes of the PARTNER 3 trial published July 29 in JACC.
- JACC CKM Guideline Spotlight Issue Addresses Obesity, HF Prevention, MoreThe recent release of the 2026 AHA/ACC/ADA/ASN Guideline for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Management of Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Syndrome marked an important step in defining evidence-based approaches to CKM prevention, risk assessment and treatment.
- Cardiogenic Shock and Mechanical Circulatory Support: Year in Review 2025The year 2025 was a landmark year for cardiogenic shock (CS) and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Two major clinical guideline documents were published, the longest-duration follow-up data from the field's pivotal trial were released, and real-world registries continued to challenge trial generalizability.
