AI-driven ECG improves detection of severe heart attacks

Using artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze electrocardiograms (ECG) improved detection of severe heart attacks, including those that presented with unconventional symptoms, or atypical ECG patterns, and reduced false positives, according to a study published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions and simultaneously presented at TCT 2025 in San Francisco.

Women gain stronger heart protection from exercise than men, study reveals

Researchers analyzing over 85,000 UK Biobank participants found that women gain greater cardiovascular benefits from physical activity than men, needing only half the exercise to achieve similar reductions in coronary heart disease and mortality risk. The study underscores the importance of sex-specific guidelines for CHD prevention.

New imaging technique can map the blood flow of an entire organ in 4D

For the first time, a team of Inserm researchers from the Physics for Medicine Institute (Inserm/ESPCI Paris-PSL/CNRS) has succeeded in mapping the blood flow of an entire organ in animals (heart, kidney and liver) with great precision, in four dimensions: 3D + time.

Cutting balloon angioplasty proves noninferior to intravascular lithotripsy in treating calcified coronary lesions

Results from the first randomized controlled trial to directly compare the safety and efficacy of cutting balloon (CB) angioplasty to intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) prior to drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for the treatment of calcified coronary artery disease found CB to be noninferior to IVL.

Clinically significant valvular heart disease vastly underdiagnosed in U.S. elders

Results from the PREVUE-VALVE study suggest that there are currently at least 4.7 million people aged 65-85 living with moderate or greater valvular heart disease (VHD) in the United States, and at least 10.6 million with clinically significant VHD, most of whom are unaware of their condition.
