Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is a common finding, especially among the elderly or patients undergoing hemodialysis. Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus (CCMA) is a rare MAC variant with liquefied material at the calcified annulus. Surgical management of CCMA often involves wide excision and debridement, increasing the risk of perioperative stroke.

Mendelian randomization (MR) is a technique which uses genetic data to uncover causal relationships between variables. With the growing availability of large-scale biobank data, there is increasing interest in elucidating nuances in these relationships using MR. Stratified MR techniques such as doubly-ranked MR (DRMR) and residual stratification MR have been developed to identify nonlinearity in causal relationships.

Although many cardioprotective interventions have been shown to limit infarct size (IS), in preclinical animal studies of acute myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), their clinical translation to patient benefit has been largely disappointing. A major factor is the lack of rigor and reproducibility in the preclinical studies. To address this, we have established the IMproving Preclinical Assessment of Cardioprotective Therapies (IMPACT) small animal multisite acute myocardial infarction (AMI) network, with centralized randomization and blinded core laboratory IS analysis, and have validated the network using ischemic preconditioning (IPC).

Purpose Of Review: We review the utility of coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring in personalized risk assessment and initiation of cardiovascular disease risk modifying therapy.
Recent Findings: Many populations - including South Asians, patients with cancer, patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), younger patients, and elderly patients - were not included during the conception of the current risk stratification tools. CAC scoring may allow clinicians to risk-stratify these individuals and help initiate preventive therapy in higher risk populations.
