In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at the net benefit of intensive blood pressure control between fewer cardiovascular and more adverse events. He then explores non-atherothrombotic myocardial infarction events and spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) in younger patients – something more commonly found among young women than young men. Finally, Dr. Eagle discusses whether clopidogrel is superior to aspirin for the prevention of major adverse cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).

Dr. Eagle continues in this week's View to analyze some of the key clinical content presented at the ESC Congress recently held in Spain. Dr. Eagle examines the TARGET-FIRST trial in which P2Y12-inhibitor monotherapy was compared to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). He then analyzes the results of the ODYSSEY-HCM trial which explored mavacamten versus placebo in patients with symptomatic nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Finally, Dr. Eagle discusses the ESSENCE-TIMI 73b study that looked at olezarsen and its potential for lowering triglycerides in moderate hypertriglyceridemia with elevated cardiovascular risk.

In this week's View, Dr. Eagle looks at major trials presented at the recent ESC Congress in Spain. First, he discusses the MAPLE-HCM trial that investigates aficamten versus metoprolol monotherapy in patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). He then explores a set of important presentations on beta blocker therapy following myocardial infarction. Finally, Dr. Eagle talks about new research on the use of reconditioned pacemakers that shows promise for strengthening global cardiovascular health. Subscribe to Eagle's Eye View
