  • Cardiac Arrest During Long-Distance Running Races: 2010-2023
    May 13 2025
    The “Cardiac Arrest During Long-Distance Running Races: 2010–2023” study analyzed the incidence and outcomes of sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs) occurring during marathons and half-marathons in the United States. Known as the RACER2 study, it serves as a follow-up to the original RACER1 study, which covered the years 2000–2009. In this episode, Drs. Jonathan H. Kim and Aaron L. Baggish discussed the study findings, emphasizing the importance of continued vigilance and preparedness to further reduce the risk of fatal outcomes during endurance events. SUGGESTED MATERIALS 1.

  • WARRIOR Trial: Outcomes to Reduce Events in Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease
    May 6 2025

    Funded by the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) of the Department of Defense, the WARRIOR (Women's IschemiA TRial to Reduce events In non-ObstRuctive CAD) Trial addresses the urgent need for evidence-based care in a growing population of patients—particularly women—experiencing ischemia without obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA).

    This clinical strategy trial compares optimal medical therapy with usual care in women with angina but no significant coronary blockages. In this episode, Drs. Nanette Kass Wenger and Noel Bairey Merz discuss the trial’s design, enrollment progress, follow-up strategies, and the primary and secondary outcomes that could reshape cardiovascular care for women.

  • STRIDE Trial: Effects of Semaglutide in Patients With Peripheral Artery Disease
    Apr 29 2025

    Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) often experience significant walking difficulties, and there are limited therapies available to improve their mobility. Investigation made through the STRIDE (Effects of Semaglutide on Functional Capacity in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Peripheral Arterial Disease) trial focused on semaglutide, a drug known for promoting weight loss, reducing inflammation, and lowering the risk of heart attack or stroke, to determine if it could enhance the functional abilities of PAD patients.

    In this interview, Drs. Alison Bailey and Marc Bonaca discuss how the STRIDE trial data supports the use of semaglutide for individuals with PAD and type 2 diabetes, highlighting its cardiometabolic, cardiovascular, and kidney benefits, as well as its ability to improve function, symptoms, and overall quality of life.
