AIM: The “2023 AHA/ACC/ACCP/ASPC/NLA/PCNA Guideline for the Management of Patients With Chronic Coronary Disease” provides an update to and consolidates new evidence since “2012 ACCF/AHA/ACP/AATS/PCNA/SCAI/STS Diagnosis Stable Ischemic Heart corresponding “2014 ACC/AHA/AATS/PCNA/SCAI/STS Focused Update Disease.” METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was conducted from September 2021 May 2022. Clinical studies, systematic reviews meta-analyses, other on human participants were identified...
The rapid proliferation of health informatics and digital innovations has revolutionized clinical research practices. There is no doubt that these fields will continue to have accelerated growth a substantial impact on population health. However, there are legitimate concerns about how promising technological advances can lead unintended consequences such as perpetuating care disparities for underresourced populations. To mitigate this potential pitfall, it imperative the scientific...
The American Heart Association recently published an updated algorithm for quantifying cardiovascular health (CVH)-the Life's Essential 8 score. We quantified US levels of CVH using the new
Deep learning algorithms derived in homogeneous populations may be poorly generalizable and have the potential to reflect, perpetuate, even exacerbate racial/ethnic disparities health care. In this study, we aimed (1) assess whether performance of a deep algorithm designed detect low left ventricular ejection fraction using 12-lead ECG varies by race/ethnicity (2) determine its is determined derivation population or racial variation ECG.We performed retrospective cohort analysis that...
Background: Black adults experience a disproportionately higher burden of cardiovascular risk factors and disease in comparison with White the United States. Less is known about how sex-based disparities mortality between these groups have changed on national scale over past 20 years, particularly across geographic determinants health residential racial segregation. Methods: We used CDC WONDER (Centers for Disease Control Prevention’s Wide-Ranging Online Data Epidemiologic Research) to...
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an evidence-based intervention that uses patient education, health behavior modification, and exercise training to improve secondary prevention outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease. CR programs reduce morbidity mortality rates adults ischemic heart disease, failure, or cardiac surgery but are significantly underused, only a minority of eligible participating the United States. New delivery strategies urgently needed participation. One potential...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death for both women and men worldwide. In United States (U.S.), there are significant disparities in cardiovascular risk factors CVD outcomes among racial ethnic minority populations, some whom have highest U.S. incidence mortality. Despite this, racial/ethnic populations remain underrepresented clinical trials, relative to their burden population percentage. The lack diverse participants trials is not only a moral ethical issue, but...
African Americans continue to have suboptimal cardiovascular health (CVH) based on the American Heart Association Life's Simple 7 (LS7), health-promoting behaviors and biological risk factors (eg, physical activity, blood pressure). Innovative, community-level interventions in partnership with trusted institutions such as churches are potential means improve CVH this population.
Introduction In recent years, there has been increasing awareness of the lack diversity among clinical trial participants. Equitable representation is key when testing novel therapeutic and non-therapeutic interventions to ensure safety efficacy across populations. Unfortunately, in United States (US), racial ethnic minority populations continue be underrepresented trials compared their White counterparts. Methods Two webinars a four-part series, titled “Health Equity through Diversity,”...
Background Higher scores for the American Heart Association Life's Essential 8 (LE8) metrics, blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, body mass index, physical activity, smoking, sleep, and diet, are associated with lower risk of chronic disease. Socioeconomic status (SES; employment, insurance, education, income) is LE8 scores, but there limited understanding potential differences by sex. This analysis quantifies association SES each sex, within Hispanic Americans, non‐Hispanic Asian Black...
