Association of Lp(a) With Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality in U.S. Hispanics and Latinos:

Incredibly happy to share my new manuscript in JACC main: Association of Lp(a) With Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality in U.S. Hispanics and Latinos | JACC www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/...

Prevalence and Phenotype of Transthyretin Val122Ile Variant in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos:

Our new paper in JACC: Advances 🧬
First study to examine TTR Val122Ile in community-dwelling Hispanic/Latino adults.
Carriers were mostly of Dominican background, reflecting higher African ancestry, and identifying a group at risk for hATTR!

El colesterol sigiloso, antes considerado intratable, también afecta a los hispanos - El Diario NY La lipoproteína(a), un colesterol genético e indetectable en pruebas comunes, puede dañar el corazón y cerebro, especialmente en hispanos

Honored to share my first newspaper column—published in El Diario NY, the nation’s largest Spanish-language daily!

I spotlight #LipoproteinA, a hidden cholesterol risk for the heart and brain, and why it matters for US Hispanics/Latinos

Thanks @nhmamd.bsky.social !

Our team at #AlbertEinsteinCollegeofMedicine found that #Lipoprotein(a) is an independent predictor of stroke/TIA, MRI-defined infarcts, and WMH in #Hispanic/Latino adults from HCHS/SOL.

Timely insights following promising siRNA trial results at #ACC25.
