1/ 🚨 Are we denying older adults a life-saving therapy?

Our meta-analysis (32,541 older adults) shows SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly reduce mortality, heart failure hospitalizations, and major cardiac events.

Yet, they remain underused. Why? 🧵👇

[Why] is furosemide susceptible to malabsorption from "gut edema"?

When a patient with heart failure is hospitalized with congestion I often hear "let's use IV furosemide; they're probably not absorbing the PO."

It's a comment unique to furosemide.

But is it accurate?

Excited to share my abstracts in Blood! One will be presented tomorrow at ASH 2024.

Per our GBD 2021 analyses,

- CLL deaths have dropped in Europe and North America but increased in Africa

- Multiple myeloma deaths have risen globally, esp in Asia

I took this course as a premed and it was instrumental in helping me start my research journey. More importantly, it helped me see the profound impact of scientific rigor— or its lack thereof— on clinical decision-making and patient outcomes.
