From structural and biomarker findings in the HELIOS-B substudy to broader discussions on access, treatment sequencing, and multidisciplinary care, this episode highlights new momentum in ATTR-CM management.
Also covered: a sham-controlled trial on compression therapy for vasovagal syncope and pooled trial data on DOAC use in frail older adults with atrial fibrillation. Fast-moving insights, practical takeaways, and a clear message—amyloidosis is no longer rare and mysterious, but a condition we can monitor, modify, and manage.


Every week, the editors of one of the world's leading cardiology journals sit down for a conversation that goes beyond the printed page.
