Honored to be the inaugural cardiology grand rounds at @MWHCConnection in Fredericksburg, VA - I am impressed by the growing cardiology practice led by the one-and-the-only @Schatz_Aa whom I have had the privilege to see grow from student to cardiologist supreme @VCUHealthHeart - ip program led by another great friend Luiz Guzman, and happy to see many old colleagues that make this excellent team like Emilio Exaire, Dinesh Kadariya, Anna Tomdio. Thanks, congrats and good luck.

Congrats to our @MonteHeart @CardioMDPhD Dr. Leandro Slipczuk, current Editor in Chief of @PCVDJournal which is now ranked #15 among cardiovascular medicine journals worldwide. We are #MonteProud! @EinsteinMed

Paying peer reviewers led to faster first editorial decisions — an average of 5.5 working days, down from nearly 38 for unpaid reviews.

The review quality, as judged by handling editors on the basis of helpfulness in making an editorial decision, went up.

Off to Baltimore! ✈️ Spending the next 3 days at #SLEEP2026 to dive into the latest breakthrough research in Sleep & Circadian science. If you're attending, let’s connect! ☕️💻 #SleepResearch #CardioDREAMLab #sleep2026

Our newest work shows that although modern STEMI treatment preserves resting cardiac structure and function, cardiorespiratory fitness remains impaired, and the impairment is likely determined by both central and peripheral mechanisms!

Our last research is out!
Across 107,126 cancer patients, SGLT2i were associated with ↓ all-cause mortality, ↓ HF events, and ↓ AF/flutter. No major safety concerns.

Now let’s get the RCTs. @LuigiSpadafora @MarcoBernardiMD @gianmarcosarto @totocarbone @AbbateAntonio

We tried to answer this question:

What is the prevalence of malnutrition and the long-term outcomes among patients supported with temporary mechanical circulatory support?
