Congratulations to the #OPTION investigators for completing a likely practice-changing trial of #AFAblation & #LAAOcclusion in AF.
The supplement has probably the most remarkable tabulation of adverse events I've ever seen.

Better #CardiovascularHealth (aka #LifesEssential8) is associated with lower #CVD, #Cancer, and other deaths in #REGARDS. Fascinating associations by LE8 component.

Had a great visit with Tisdale lecturer, Ken Mukamal (@bidmcreseach.bsky.social). Stopped by our (@uvmlarnermed.bsky.social) biorepository. Behold! Specimens from studies that NIH has spent hundreds of millions of dollars supporting. MAJOR advancements in scientific knowledge have come from here.

Probably the best deal in children's clothing right now. $12, also 20% off, free shipping.
What kid wouldn't like an heirloom-quality shirt with a Dinosaur holding the #Stata logo?
I'm sure SAS is selling one for $500.
