As AI sets its sights on revolutionising more and more industries, we ask if can AI change the face of hospitality with Paul Armstrong, Technology expert and founder of TBD group.
Having grown up in the restaurant tech industry together, longtime friends Alan Hayman, Paul Armstrong, and Kelly MacPherson and Accelerate host Rob Grimes reflect on what they've seen over the last 40 years (they started in Elementary School). From their individual experiences, they discuss their perspectives on what's happening now, and where they think things are headed for tech within the restaurant industries.In this candid chat, they begin by agreeing that the omnichannel approach operators must keep up with has made it even more complicated for independents to run their business. On the flip side, operators also don't have to settle with technology either now that there are more choices.The group touches on technologies like dynamic pricing and handheld devices that existed long before they were implemented and became popular for restaurants. Even AI, the hot topic of today, is like the rules-based systems that appeared 20+ years ago. And what about the “non-resettable grand total?”If you want to hear how tech has impacted and changed within operations over the years, and which innovations may take the lead looking forward - listen to this episode of Accelerate.
We're dancin' to the rhythm in our heart and soul, cuz it's S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night on O3L! This week, we're all about the songs and albums that soundtrack our Saturday nights. And, yeah, we've got a Saturday Night Fever, and the only cure is... More FLASHCUBES! That's right...our Third Lads this week are bassist Gary Frenay and guitarist Paul Armstrong, one half of Power Pop Hall of Famers The Flashcubes! Gary and Paul, along with guitarist Arty Lenin and drummer Tommy Allen, burst out of Syracuse, NY in 1977. During their initial lifespan of 1977-1980, they released two singles, the classics "Christi Girl" and "Wait Til Next Week," and opened for major acts such as The Runaways, Ramones, The Jam and The Police.

The unmistakeable sound of Melissa Brinton is prolifically filling a good share of the Berkshire music scene, as she performs solo and in two additional groups. She's perhaps the busiest musician in the region. Ironically, it may have been during the lockdown that Melissa elevated to a new level as the pandemic encouraged innovation and greater creativity. Unable to play and perform in any public venue, Melissa took to social media taking requests. She responded to the requests for tunes that she likely never would have considered learning before, and put a beautiful spin on many of our favorites. That inspiration has led to an evolution of her own sound as she works on music for her third album. In this episode, Melissa performs new music that will be on her new album as well as a few covers that you're sure to love. We also cover Melissa's vocal education at Pittsfield High School under the legendary Gaylan Palmer, techniques for improving vocal performance, her Irish music repertoire, playing with Fanny Pack with Elaine Morel and Paul Armstrong, as well as Flight with Mary Verdi and Eileen Markland, recording with her Father and her musical brother, Christopher, folky versions of Frank Sinatra songs, inspiration from the Spotify algorithm and more. I hope you'll enjoy my conversation and the music of Melissa Brinton. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/john-krol/support
December 17, 1993. Merced, California. 27-year old Paul Armstrong, a tow truck operator employed by RTS Towing, vanishes without explanation from his home. Later that day, 34-year old Steven Lombard, another tow truck operator from the same company, goes to the towing yard to pick up his paycheque before he also disappears and his abandoned pick-up truck is found in a K-Mart parking lot the following morning. Over 15 years later, the owner of RTS Towing, Randal Wright, becomes a person of interest in the disappearance of his 50-year old estranged wife, Karen Wright, who vanishes from their vacation home in Mexico. While there is suspicion that Randal might have been involved in all of these disappearances, no trace of any of the victims is ever found. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we will be covering a trio of unsolved missing persons cases and explore whether or not they are actually connected to each other. After that… the trail went cold. If you have any information about this case, please contact the Merced County Sheriff's Office at (209) 385-7445. Thanks Ana Luisa.

Happy New Years Insiders! Another Eye Opening Stream For You This Week!!
Please join author Ole Fröbert and Associate Editor Dharam Kumbhani as they discuss the article "Influenza Vaccination After Myocardial Infarction: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Trial." Dr. Carolyn Lam: Welcome to Circulation on the Run, your weekly podcast, summary and backstage pass to the journal and its editors. We're your co-hosts. I'm Dr. Carolyn Lam, associate editor from the National Heart Center in Duke National University of Singapore. Dr. Greg Hundley: I'm Dr. Greg Hundley, associate editor, director of the Poly Heart Center at VCU health in Richmond, Virginia. Well, listeners, this week we've got a really hot feature topic pertaining to flu vaccines, which are coming in the US, North America, South America, coming up soon, and their relationship to myocardial infarction. But before we get to that feature discussion, let's grab a cup of coffee and jump in to some of the other articles in this issue. Oh, wait a minute. Our first article, we've got a co-author here. Carolyn, something about the VICTORIA trial, which you were a part of. Can you tell us a little bit about this? Dr. Carolyn Lam: I would love to, and first of all, I'm doing this on behalf of a big team, and I want to really, really call up first Dr. Paul Armstrong who's the senior author from University of Alberta. But let me tell you first about the VICTORIA study. VICTORIA evaluated vericiguat, a soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, compared to placebo, in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with a recent worsening heart failure event and the primary result was actually a significant reduction in the primary composite outcome of cardiovascular death or heart failure hospitalization with vericiguat compared to placebo. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Now, interestingly though, in VICTORIA, we found that anemia occurred more often in patients treated with vericiguat at a rate of about 7.6% compared to placebo, which was 5.7%. Now, although earlier studies of another soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator like riociguat was found to be associated with anemia. The etiology really remains unknown. In the current paper, we explored the relationship between markers of anemia and vericiguat versus placebo in VICTORIA. We further explored the changes in hemoglobin and hematocrit over the course of the trial and their relationships with the primary composite outcome. Dr. Greg Hundley: Carolyn, this is such an important new study heart failure therapy for those with reduced ejection fraction, and again, an important topic related to anemia. What did they find? Dr. Carolyn Lam: Thanks, Greg. First, approximately a third of patients in VICTORIA had anemia at randomization, and this is using the standard sex-based definitions. With a lower hemoglobin indeed predicting a higher risk for cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, all-cause mortality. As I had already mentioned, we found more anemia with vericiguat than with placebo. The interesting thing though is after 16 weeks, no further decline in hemoglobin occurred over the remaining and over 96 weeks of follow up, and the ratio of hemoglobin to hematocrit remained constant. Now, overall, the adverse event of anemia occurred in 7.1% of the patients. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Importantly, the lower hemoglobin was not related to the beneficial effect of vericiguat over placebo on the primary outcome. Now, I know all of that may be more descriptive and reassuring than really understanding the mechanism by which it occurred. Further mechanistic studies are certainly warranted to better understand the basis of the anemia development, and it's of principle importance because as you said, vericiguat I think it's going to be an important new medication that we can consider in high-risk patients with recent worsening heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Dr. Greg Hundley: Thanks so much, Carolyn, especially the perspective of being an author on this particular study. Well, Carolyn, my next study is going to come to us from Dr. Zhao Wang from University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, and it's really about the integrated stress response, and that's an evolutionary conserved process to cope with intracellular and extracellular disturbances. Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of death worldwide. Coronary artery perfusion is the most effective means to mitigate cardiac damage resulting from myocardial infarction. However, that can cause, as we know, additional reperfusion injury. This study aim to investigate the role of the integrated stress response in myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Oh, very interesting. What were the results? Dr. Greg Hundley: Right, Carolyn. The authors found that the integrated stress response is activated by ischemia reperfusion injury in the heart, and the perk branch of the integrated stress response protects the heart from ischemia reperfusion injury through inhibition of protein synthesis. Also, Carolyn, mitochondrial complex proteins are selectively suppressed and oxidative stress is reduced by the integrated stress response. Carolyn, the takeaway is that this integrated stress response is cardioprotective against cardiac ischemia reperfusion injury. Perhaps pharmacological stimulation of the integrated stress response at reperfusion, well, that may reduce heart damage and improve cardiac outcomes after ischemia reperfusion injury. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Cool. Thanks, Greg. Well, I've got one more paper, and this deals with coronary microcircuitry dysfunction and acute rejection after heart transplantation. Co-corresponding authors, Doctors Lee and Choi from Heart Vascular Stroke Institute in Samsung Medical Center sought to evaluate the prognostic implications of coronary microcircuitry dysfunction assessed by the index of microcircuitry resistance or IMR for the risk of acute cellular rejection after heart transplantation. They did this by prospectively enrolling 154 heart transplant recipients who underwent scheduled coronary angiography and invasive coronary physiological assessment one month after transplantation. Dr. Greg Hundley: Very interesting, Carolyn. What did they find here? Dr. Carolyn Lam: IMR measured early after heart transplantation was significantly associated with the risk of acute cellular rejection, and an IMR above or at 15 was highly predictive for the recurrence of acute cellular rejection during two years of follow up following heart transplantation. Adding IMR to the prediction model with clinical variables significantly increase discriminant and reclassification ability for the risk of acute cellular rejection. In addition to surveillance endomyocardial biopsy, the implications are that early stratification using IMR could be a clinically useful tool to identify patients at higher risk of future acute cellular rejection after heart transplantation, and this is discussed in an editorial by Doctors Fearon and Valentine from Stanford University. Dr. Greg Hundley: Very nice, Carolyn. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Great. Greg, before we go to the exciting feature discussion, let's round it up by just a quick tour of what else there is in today's issue. There is an exchange of letters between Doctors Pappone Leor on atrial fibrillation as a cardiomyopathy, global rounds on United Kingdom by Dr. Cowie, an ECG challenge by Dr. Tsai on grouped beating following acute inferior myocardial infarction, and a research letter by Dr. Salem on electrocardiographic manifestations of immune checkpoint inhibitor myocarditis. Dr. Greg Hundley: Great, Carolyn. Well, I can't wait to get to this next feature discussion and learn a little bit more about the relationship between flu vaccines and future myocardial infarction. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Today's feature discussion was a really hot topic at the ESC 2021, and in fact, a simultaneous publication. It is about influenza vaccination after myocardial infarction, a very important topic and a very novel paper. We are so pleased to have the first and corresponding author, Dr. Ole Fröbert from Orebro University in Sweden to discuss this paper, as well as our associate editor, Dr. Dharam Kumbhani, from UT Southwestern. Welcome, gentlemen. Only if I could start with asking you to describe the rationale for why you did this study, and then perhaps quickly summarize the results. Dr. Ole Fröbert: Yeah, thank you so much, Carolyn. The background of the study was that during influenza epidemics, more people die from cardiovascular causes, and out in the literature, there are numerous observational studies suggesting a protective effect from influenza vaccination on cardiovascular events. There are also three smaller single-center randomized trials supporting these registered findings. Currently influenza vaccination carries a Class I, Level of Evidence B recommendation in both American and European secondary prevention guidelines, but uptake is low and vaccination timing is unclarified. Our aim was to determine whether influenza vaccination improves clinical outcomes in patients with a recent myocardial infarction or with high risk corona artery disease. Dr. Ole Fröbert: The study was international, multi-centers investigator initiated, double-blind randomized control trial, and we enrolled patients at 30 centers across eight countries in both the Northern and the Southern Hemisphere, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Latvia, Scotland, Czech Republic, Bangladesh and Australia. We enrolled patients between October 2016 and March 2020. We had quite broad inclusion criteria. We included hospitalized patients with STEMI or non-STEMI, or high-risk stable patients over 75 years of age undergoing an angio or PCI. We excluded patients already vaccinated or intending to be vaccinated during the current season. We also included, of course, patients if they had allergy to X or influenza vaccine, if they had infection or if they were immunosuppressed or previously randomized in the trial. Dr. Ole Fröbert: Over these four years of inclusion, we enrolled a total of 2,571 participants. The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause death, MI and stent thrombosis. This outcome occurred in 67 participants assigned influenza vaccine and 91 assigned placebo corresponding to a reduction of the primary endpoint of 28% with a P value of 0.04. Also, rates of all-cause death and of cardiovascular death were reduced and both with a hazard ratio of 0.59 corresponding to a reduction of 41% in all-cause death and cardiovascular death. Based on these results, we think that this trial and what we know from previous smaller trials should be sufficient to establish influenza vaccination as a new standard of care as part of in-hospital treatment after an MI. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Heartfelt congratulations, Ole. What an elegant intervention in a very frankly challenging situation that the trial obviously carried on through COVID as well, multinational. May I just double check? Was it investigator-led? Because- Dr. Ole Fröbert: Yes, this was- Dr. Carolyn Lam: That's amazing. Dr. Ole Fröbert: ... an idea that just popped up, and then yeah, we did it, but it was seven years of work. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Wow. Hard work as I can just imagine. First, heartfelt congratulations. Very impactful results. Dharam, could I invite you to put those results in context and why we single this out? Dr. Dharam Kumbhani: Yeah. No, thank you, Carolyn. Ole, I want to amplify or recapitulate the amazement and wonder that Carolyn just articulated. I think this is a huge endeavor. It's a very important topic. It's "a fairly simple intervention." It's vaccination, and you've just really shown that even in the acute setting, that A, this is as feasible, B, it is safe, and three, it is effective. I think it's potentially ... Given the magnitude of influenza in the world, I think this has tremendous public health ramifications. I really want to congratulate you and your investigators for pursuing this important question and then just executing this, I'm sure despite multiple challenges over a long period of time. Dr. Ole Fröbert: Thank you very much. Dr. Dharam Kumbhani: Yeah, no. I guess you already alluded to the fact that this may influence guidelines. As you mentioned, it's a 1B. Maybe get your thoughts, I suppose this may move the needle towards becoming perhaps a little stronger on the recommendation front, both in the US and the European guidelines? Dr. Ole Fröbert: Yeah. I think what has been the challenge until now is that many places, of course, you commend patients to take a flu jab when treatment is over in the hospital. But then the responsibility is diffused. Who should take care of that? Is that up to the patient or the primary care physician? Who is in charge? One important finding of this study is, as you said, it's safe. There were no differences, adverse events between the two groups. It's safe and it could be given early. I think a take-home factor from the study is that it should be given at the hospital and it's a responsibility of the cardiologist. Dr. Dharam Kumbhani: Yeah, I really like that. Actually, I'm sure this would resonate across the board in the cardiology community. We've taken ownership for starting from statin and now SGLT-2 inhibitors, which kind of ... All of these medications have come from non-cardiology realms, so to say. But now we prescribe those medications. We know they have clear cardiovascular benefits. I suppose you could make a case to say we, the cardiology community, has to adopt this. The implementation gap that exists for a lot of these therapies, that also comes to us and for us to move that forward. It's thought provoking. I certainly felt very strongly after your study. I don't know how you feel about that. We should really be the ones driving this and help with more widespread immunization in these patients. Dr. Ole Fröbert: I think because not just this study, but also the previous studies and what we know from observational findings is that this is safe and it works. What we also saw in our study, and it has been indicated in previous meta analysis, is that the maximum effect is seen in the acute setting. It's the acute coronary syndrome patients, the patients we had in our study, that benefit the most. That's also a case for actually doing this in the hospital and not postponing it. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Wow. That's amazing. Ole, I do have one question. Just for clarification. You were careful to say that you did this during influenza seasons, right? Coming from my part of the world in Singapore where we don't really have influenza seasons, don't have any seasons, frankly, what would you think? What would you advise? Dr. Ole Fröbert: There is influenza seasons in all parts of the world, I'm sorry. Dr. Carolyn Lam: True. Dr. Ole Fröbert: For example, we had Bangladesh on board in our study. It's in the Northern Hemisphere, but influenza-wise, it's in the Southern, and their season is between May and September. But it's not as clearly defined as the Northern Hemisphere season. It's almost always in two waves during that season. One practical challenge with influenza vaccine is that it's produced for the seasons. It's difficult to say, "Yeah, we can just do it all year round," and also we didn't test that. I, of course, feel we should give it all year round, but it's not available, the vaccine. Perhaps it should be tested, but it is probably difficult to find funding for such a study. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Very fair, and thanks for the correction. It's true though. Singapore's on the Equator, so we don't have maybe weather seasons. But yeah, we do get vaccinated for both North and South. It's quite fascinating. But nonetheless, could I now switch topics a little bit and just over the next couple of minutes just ask you, could you please perhaps share with the audience what it was like to work with Circulation, to do this simultaneous publication? You see, our associate editor, Dharam Kumbhani, really leads this effort to get simultaneous a fast-track publication from major conferences, and it means a lot to us that investigators like you chose us. Could you share a bit? Dr. Ole Fröbert: Yeah, thank you very much. Overall, it was a pleasure. Of course, we were ... With every study of this size, you are under stress, you get the results late, and there's a conference coming up, and you would like your paper to come out at the same time across to maximize impact and attention. What I really like with working with Circulation was turnaround time was ultra fast, really extremely fast. Of course, we had a lot of questions to our study, but these were ... Some of them of course were quite difficult, but they were fair. In a way, they were also helpful in a way that made it easier to address the questions in a more, you could say, collaborative way. It was very smooth. No hiccups. Dr. Carolyn Lam: Thank you. Dharam, any final responses to that? Dr. Dharam Kumbhani: No, thank you, Carolyn. Yeah. Well, Ole, it was really a pleasure to work with you on this. I think we all recognize that this was an important study and wanted to make sure that we were able to accomplish the goal of simultaneous publication. Thank you for working with us on that. I just want to put a pitch in, I think this, for Joe, Dr. Hill and the rest of the editorial team, having a robust simultaneous publication program has been very, very important. We are very committed to working with investigators and authors on this. We are really blessed with our team on the backside that works seamlessly with us nights, weekends, just to get these things done. I just want to end with that to say this is very important for us, and we look forward to the opportunity to work with Ole and others on future papers as well. Dr. Carolyn Lam: I love that. Thank you both for being on this podcast today. Today I want to especially call out David Rivera, a wonderful managing editor who really, really is part of leading this entire group that supports us, but also even this very podcast. You've been listening to Circulation on the Run. Thank you, from both Greg and I, for joining us today, and don't forget to tune in again next week. Thank you.

Alias Jimmy Valentine is an old-time radio crime drama in the United States. It was broadcast on NBC-Blue January 18, 1938 - February 27, 1939. Format: The concept for Alias Jimmy Valentine came from writer O. Henry in his short story A Retrieved Reformation. That story was adapted into the 1910 play Alias Jimmy Valentine by Paul Armstrong. The program's stories focused on Lee Randall, described by Jim Cox in his book, Radio Crime Fighters: More Than 300 Programs from the Golden Age as "an ex-con and reformed safecracker who applied his talents and enormous underworld contacts to abet the forces of law and order." While doing so, he became an honest bank clerk and fell in love with the daughter of the banker.

066 Extra Time & Penalties with Paul Armstrong by Mark Pitcher
Dr Carolyn Lam: Welcome to Circulation On The Run, your weekly podcast summary and backstage pass to the journal and its editors. I'm Dr Carolyn Lam, Associate Editor from the National Heart Center and Duke National University of Singapore. Dr Greg Hundley: And I'm Dr Greg Hundley, Director of the Pauley Heart Center at VCU Health in Richmond, Virginia. Well, Carolyn, our feature article today looks at the use of Apixaban versus Warfarin, so a trial between the two in patients with atrial fibrillation and advanced kidney disease. But before we get to that, how about if we break away, grab a cup of coffee and go through some of the other important papers in this issue? Dr Carolyn Lam: Yeah, and why not start with talking about our gut and fiber in the diet. Now, we know that a diet poor in fiber is associated with the prevalence of hypertension, but what are the underlying mechanisms? Well, this first paper I want to talk about is from Dr Marques from Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute in Australia and colleagues who basically performed a nice series of mouse experiments and found that a diet lacking prebiotic fiber led to a gut microbiome that was pro hypertenenogenic facilitated the development of cardiac hypertrophy in germ free mice. Even in the absence of fiber, gut metabolites called short chain fatty acids usually produce from the fermentation of prebiotic fiber by the gut microbiota, but they were able to protect against the development of hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in a preclinical model. This cardioprotection involved short chain fatty acid receptors, and a decrease in the ratio of sodium to potassium excretion and changes in genome white methylation that supported higher levels of T regulatory cells. Dr Greg Hundley: Oh my goodness, Carolyn. So I need to know what I eat for lunch? What's the take home message here? Dr Carolyn Lam: Lots of fiber and definitely not the low fiber westernized diet, which may underlie hypertension. And how? Through deficient short chain fatty acid production and thus the take home is maintaining a healthy, short chain fatty acid producing microbiome is important for the cardiovascular health. Dr Greg Hundley: Wow, Carolyn. I love that article because it really helps provide some perspective on all the diet information that we've been receiving lately. Well, my paper is from doctor ... another Carolyn, but this is Carolyn Ho from Brigham and Women's Hospital- Dr Carolyn Lam: I love her. Dr Greg Hundley: ... And it involves hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular systolic dysfunction. So Carolyn, the term end-stage has been used to describe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. And that's defined when someone has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and the LVEF is less than 50%. The prognosis of patients with this condition has been reportedly poor, but it's very rare in occurrence and therefore, the natural history really remains incompletely characterized. So what did the authors do in this study? They evaluated more than 500 patients from 11 high volume hypertrophic cardiomyopathy specialty centers comprising the international Sarcomeric Human Cardiomyopathy Registry or SHaRe registry. And they were used to describe the natural history of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Dr Carolyn Lam: Interesting. So what did they find, Greg? Dr Greg Hundley: Number one, first overall, this group of patients, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular systolic dysfunction occurs in about 8% of those with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Although the natural history of left ventricular systolic function and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is variable, 75% of those that have this condition experience adverse events including 35% experiencing a death equivalent at a medium of 8.4 years after developing their systolic dysfunction. In addition to clinical features, the genetic substrate appears to play a role in both prognosis, so there are multiple sarcomeric variants, and in the risk for incident development of left ventricular systolic function with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy due to variance in the thin filaments within those myocytes. Dr Carolyn Lam: Nice. Thanks for that Greg. My next paper is a really interesting secondary analysis if you may, of the EXSCEL study. As a reminder, the Exenatide Study of Cardiovascular Event Lowering or EXSCEL assessed the impact of once weekly exenatide versus placebo in patients with type two diabetes and showed non-inferiority but not superiority for the primary MACE outcome. Now, during this trial, while aiming for glycemic echo-poise, a greater drop-in of open label glucose lowering medications occurred in the placebo group, thus prompting the current authors, which is Dr Rury Holman from University of Oxford and their colleagues to really explore the possible impact of unbalanced open labeled drop-in of glucose lowering medication on EXSCEL outcomes. To our modern diabetes trial, they used three methodologies. One, drop-in visit, right censoring. Two, inverse probability for treatment waiting. And three, applying drug class risk reductions. Now, Greg, I could either quiz you on these methods or summarize the results, which would you prefer? Dr Greg Hundley: Well, Carolyn, this calls for the infamous phone a friend. So one of the nice things we have at Circulation is a wonderful group of statisticians that really help us go through all the papers. But I sure would like to pick up the phone and call one of those folks now. But I think what I'm going to do ... maybe just give me the results of this study. That's what I prefer. Dr Carolyn Lam: I thought you might say that. So the EXSCEL observed has its ratios for MACE remained robust after right censoring or application of the literature derived risk reductions, but the exenatide versus placebo MACE effect size and statistical significance were increased by the inverse probability treatment waiting approach. So I think the take home is that effects of open label drop in cardioprotective medications do need to be considered carefully when designing, conducting and analyzing cardiovascular outcome trials of glucose lowering agents. Do we have the perfect solution? Perhaps not, but this was a really important paper to just look at and study. So Greg, I can see that you are stats out, so I'm going to tell you a little bit more about other papers in this week's issue. There's a research letter by Dr Zhang on transcription factor Kruppel-like factor 15 and how it regulates the circadian susceptibility to ischemia-reperfusion injury in the heart. Dr Greg Hundley: Very good, Carolyn. Well, I've got a couple of other papers. There's a nice in-depth piece from Dr Gregory Marcus from the University of California, San Francisco on how we evaluate and manage patients that have premature ventricular contractions. Dr Mori Krantz from Denver Health and Hospital Authority gives us an EKG challenge in someone that's had a needle stick. And then finally, there's a nice perspective piece from Dr Paul Armstrong from the Canadian VIGOUR Centre, department of medicine cardiology at the University of Alberta. And he really goes over nicely how we're going to do global collaboration to enhance cardiovascular care. What a great issue. And now onto that feature where we're going to hear a little bit about Apixaban and Warfarin in those individuals with atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease. Dr Carolyn Lam: Let's go, Greg. Today's feature paper really represents the first randomized data on NOAC versus warfarin in a very important group of patients, that is those with atrial fibrillation and advanced chronic kidney disease. So happy to have with us the corresponding author, Dr John Stanifer from Munson Healthcare, Traverse, Michigan. As well as our associate editor, Dr Chang-Sheng Ma from Beijing Anzhen Hospital in China. Welcome, welcome. So John, could you tell us the inspiration if you may, or the rationale, for doing this study? Dr John Stanifer: This is a population that's near and dear to my heart as a practicing nephrologist. We care for so many patients with atrial fibrillation, particularly those on dialysis or those with advanced kidney disease. And as other practitioners and people taking care of this population will tell you, this is just such a confusing and challenging clinical problem to try to deal with. And then really this stems from that important clinical need that we recognize almost on a daily basis. Dr Carolyn Lam: I just love that you shared that John, because coming from a nephrologist, and we're usually talking to cardiologists where we think about this all the time and have no idea what to do. So tell us about your study and what you found. Dr John Stanifer: As you know, these were data that were taken from the Aristotle trial that was finished in 2011, that was really a landmark study that established the real superiority of Apixaban compared with Warfarin and the general population. And it happened that within the study, there were several patients, 269 that had a creatinine clearance of between 25 and 30 milliliters per minute. We then took those data from those patients and compared really in this study, the safety of Apixaban compared with Warfarin within that subpopulation, and then compared that as an interaction with the safety of Apixaban versus Warfarin in patients with creatinine clearance of greater than 30. Dr Carolyn Lam: And what did you find? Dr John Stanifer: Well, in conclusion, we really found that among these patients with a creatine clearance of 25 to 30 MLs per minute in atrial fibrillation that Apixaban did cause less bleeding than Warfarin. And it appeared to be an even greater relative risk reduction when you compare that with the safety of Apixaban versus Warfarin and those with a less severe kidney disease. Dr Carolyn Lam: It's truly the first time I've seen data like this. So congratulations John and thank you so much for publishing this paper with us at Circulation. Chang-Sheng, Circulation seems to be publishing a lot in the space of combined renal and cardiac disease, which is very interesting. Why was this paper so important to us as well? Dr Changsheng Ma: It's a very important question for a clinical practice. The anticoagulation therapy in patient with advanced CKD. And observation or analysis have demonstrated inconsistent of findings regarding the net clinical benefit of warfarin in reducing the risk for stroke in patients with advanced CKD. The problem of Warfarin treatments in this patient group is dramatically higher bleeding risk. The current study also show that the bleeding risk was three- to four-fold higher in patient with advanced CKD compared to that in patient with creatinine clearance more than 30 milliliters per minute when treated with a Warfarin. So these studies are our first randomized data for NOAC compared with warfarin in patients with advanced CKD. The results provide important information as to the safety of Apixaban in this special patient group with high risk of bleeding. With reduced risk of bleeding, we may expect net clinical benefits of Apixaban in preventing stroke in patients with advanced CKD. Dr Carolyn Lam: Indeed. John, did you demonstrate that net clinical benefit or could you perhaps explain if future steps are needed to look at that a bit better? Dr John Stanifer: Well, I think absolutely future studies are needed. You have to keep in mind that these were pre-specified groups within Aristotle. These are still post-trial data from this study and that absolutely we need studies that are powered to really compare the safety. I would add not just apixaban with warfarin, but I would also add placebo to that. Dr Carolyn Lam: Interesting. Changsheng, you had some questions for John as well. Dr Changsheng Ma: Yes. John, I had questions for you. If you take a randomized trial for the answer for this question, how many cases do you think? Dr Carolyn Lam: How many cases of? Dr Changsheng Ma: How many cases should there be for a sample size for a trial? Dr John Stanifer: Well, you're really putting me on the spot here. I'll have to go back to my statistical days. Well, I think the easy part in the design of a trial for a question like this is that the event rates are so high. Whether that be for both safety outcomes related to hemorrhage and bleeding risks or primary benefit outcomes. So that would be very beneficial with that respect. But I think the key to designing a study ... and I know that there are several ongoing RENAL-AF and several others that are trying to examine this very question, but I think as a nephrologist, what we would kind of push back on a little bit is that there's no placebo arm to these trials. And I actually think that that would be a step forward even though that would be a very challenging thing, I think at this point to push for ... I think the nephrologist has kind of continued to push for that a little bit. Dr Carolyn Lam: So John, that was beautifully answered. If I could ask you then, have these results influenced your practice even now? Dr John Stanifer: Well, prior to this, we've been a little bit nervous with Apixaban, even though observational data may suggest that it would be safer or potentially usable in patients with advanced kidney disease. But part of the real conundrum and some of the challenges that come up are really around dosing of Apixaban. And they say, "Well, gosh, if they're in stage renal disease, yeah, maybe it's too bad. Maybe the kidney function is way too low and we need to kind of reduce it based just on that one criterion as opposed to the three criteria laid out in Aristotle." So I think that was some of the challenges. but I think after seeing these data and seeing the safety relative to Warfarin was really there in this patient group, yeah, it has influenced me a little bit. I am a little more adamant about switching patients. Dr Carolyn Lam: Yep. Chang-Sheng, do you agree with that? What do you think are next steps here? Dr Changsheng Ma: Because clinical practice is different, apparently, more evidence is badly needed to guide the future clinical practice because the patients with creatinine clearance even less than 25 milliliters per minute. And those in dialysis were not included in any of the pivotal studies of NOAC. Dr John Stanifer: Absolutely. Dr Changsheng Ma: It is still uncertain whether this patient will benefit from Apixaban or other NOACs. So in this study, even the significant less measured bleeding events were observed. I think the all-cause mortality was not different between the two groups. So the next step we should design a new trial to confirm whether Apixaban will really improve the prognosis of the patient with advanced CKD and AF. Dr John Stanifer: I will second that. For sure we want to answer that very important efficacy question related to this class of medications. Dr Carolyn Lam: Efficacy and patients on hemodialysis. Wow. This really just opens up a lot, but you're right. It's such tantalizing information that you see in ... so thank you so much John, for publishing this paper with us. Chang-Sheng, it's such a great paper. I remember the discussions we had during our editors’ discussions and it's so nice to see it out in print. I'm telling you, audience, you have to get hold of this paper. It will change this field I think and will lead to further trials exactly like you've heard here, and that we've put John on the spot to describe. Dr Carolyn Lam: Thank you very much gentlemen for a wonderful discussion. Thank you, audience, for joining us. You've been listening to Circulation On The Run. Join us again next week.

This week I got the chance to interview Paul Armstrong. Paul and I go back some time to when I was working for a large corporate and he came in to bid on some work. He was referred via a network connection and was amazing at identifying the needs of the business as well as working out a plan of attack for building out a global digital presence for the company I was working for. While the work did not go ahead, I was able to maintain contact over the years following this. And as my life changed, I reached out to Paul for some mentorship in my next steps. He was more than happy to oblige. That being said, Paul was always happy to meet up, have a beer and hear what was going on. Often times it was a random encounter that lead to rekindling our meet ups but each and every time Paul met up with me with genuine enthusiasm. Keen to hear where I was at and what I was thinking. A true man of the people!

This week, Sue and I get into career transition. Nic talks to Paul Armstrong, a leading career transition from Inner Sanctum Consulting, an expert who has had his own experience with career transition answers all the questions we have about "what's next"? He challenges us to think more broadly about our skill set. Nurses are pretty amazing creatures and we possess skills that we take for granted that other industries invest years and thousands of professional development dollars in growing in their own employees. Nurses can inherently think laterally: linear thinking is not useful when we're presented with a patient load - we must triage, prioritise and time manage appropriately. We innately know how to manage high pressure situations: how many professionals come to work with life and death situations ever at our periphery. Nurses must be comfortable with the fact that any one of their patients may arrest out of the blue. We know communication: we talk to all manner of people everyday - we might be nursing the homeless guy in Room 3 and the CEO of a large multinational company in Room 4: that takes skill. So Paul walks us through seeing our skill set as transferrable, as opposed to clinically subspecialised.

“A Low-Cost Automated System for High-Throughput Phenotyping of Single Oat Seeds” with James Clohessy. A Rube Goldberg machine is a machine intentionally designed to complete a simple task using overly complicated steps. James Clohessy and his team are doing just the opposite. Using machine learning, web cameras, open software, and photogrammetry techniques, they’re developing low cost, high-throughput, high efficiency phenotyping systems. With these systems, researchers can save hours of time that would normally be spent on taking individual seed measurements by hand, such as height, width, and color, all while gaining greater detail about the seed such as volume and density. Listen in to learn more about James’ new system as well as: What are phenotyping and photogrammetry? What are some of the applications of knowing seed size, color, and weight? What are some of the limitations of high-throughput phenotyping? What are some of the future applications of these machine learning systems?

1992 didn't just see the birth of the Premier League and Champions League but it saw the return of Match of the Day to our TV screens for the first time in four years. On this latest episode we get the inside track on MOTD in the 90s, as Ash and Joel are joined by former editor on the show Paul Armstrong. The boys chat through football coverage in the 1990s, Des Lynam, Motty vs. Barry and even bear hugs with David Ginola. Plus there's Lineker, Gubba, Brooking and lots of 'You don't win anything with kids' too. So sit back and enjoy our look back at Match of the Day in the 90s! Paul's new book detailing his career on the show and football at the BBC 'Why Are We Always On Last' is out now. Find us online at http://www.ak90s.co.uk on twitter https://www.twitter.com/AK90s and facebook https://www.facebook.com/ak90s

Wilson and Mowbray are some of the finest commentators on television and regularly appear on MOTD. Armstrong was BBC Match of the Day's editor for 14 years. If you enjoy the episode and want to go deep on MOTD I recommend you buy Why Are We Always On Last? which is the autobiography of Paul Armstrong. You can buy Why Are We Always On Last? on Amazon or wherever you get your books. In the episode we discuss: the future of broadcasting & MOTD, how MOTD is made, the 3 pm blackout and a whole lot more. If you're American and wondering what Match of the Day is, it's a show based on highlights and analysis, like Sunday Night Countdown or Baseball Tonight. Except it is 90 minutes and has no commercials. It's an essential part of British football culture and tradition. And as this is the first time having 3 people I mistakenly never asked them to introduce themselves with their voice. The first person you'll hear from is Guy Mowbury. The next voice is Steve Wilson. And the other voice is Paul Armstrong.

Dr Carolyn Lam: Welcome to Circulation on the Run, your weekly podcast summary and backstage pass to the journal and its editors. I'm Dr Carolyn Lam, Associate Editor from the National Heart Center and Duke National University of Singapore. This week features Circulation Global Rounds, a brand-new series of papers from all across the world that you are going to want to hear about, coming right up after these summaries. The first original paper this week tells us that community trends and acute decompensated heart failure may differ by race and sex. Dr Patricia Chang from University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and colleagues examine the 10-year rates and trends of hospitalized acute decompensated heart failure in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities or ARIC study, which sampled heart failure–related hospitalizations in four US communities from 2005 to 2014, using ICD-9 codes. They found that acute heart failure with reduced ejection fraction was more common in black men and white men, whereas acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction was most common in white women. Rates of hospitalized acute decompensated heart failure increased over time, with higher rates in blacks, and rising cases of preserved ejection fraction heart failure. Mortality rates were 30% at one year with a more pronounced decrease over time in blacks but generally did not differ by heart failure types. Whether racial differences may be related to age of onset comorbidities, or other community level and social economic factors, deserve further study. The next paper is a population-based study identifying long-term outcomes and risk factors and children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Dr Alexander from Boston Children's Hospital and colleagues examine the National Australian Childhood Cardiomyopathy Study, a long-term national cohort study with a median follow-up duration of 15 years. They found that the greatest risk of death or transplantation for children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was in the first year after diagnosis, with 14% of patients achieving this combined end point compared to 0.4% per year thereafter. Risk factors for death or transplantation included symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy at diagnosis, Noonan syndrome, increasing left ventricular free wall thickness, and lower fractional shortening during follow up. The majority of surviving patients had no symptoms. Thus, children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who are alive one year after diagnosis have a low long-term rate of death or transplantation. Deaths from heart failure usually occur soon after diagnosis, whereas the risk of sudden cardiac death is ongoing. The next paper is the first demonstration of a peripheral clock in the perivascular adipose tissue that could contribute to the homeostatic regulation of circadian blood pressure variation. Co-corresponding authors Dr Chang and Chen from University of Michigan and their colleagues used a novel brown adipose specific aryl hydrocarbon receptor, nuclear translocator-like protein 1 or Bmal1 and angiotensinogen knockout mouse model to demonstrate that local Bmal1 in perivascular adipose tissue regulated angiotensinogen expression and the ensuing increase in angiotensin II, which acted on smooth muscle cells in the vessel walls to regulate basal activity and blood pressure in a circadian fashion during the resting phase. In fact, deletion of Bmal1 or angiotensinogen in the perivascular adipose tissue resulted in a superdipper phenotype with exacerbated hypotension during the resting phase. These findings imply that it is possible that obesity could alter the perivascular adipose tissue peripheral clock, thus promoting abnormal dipper phenotypes and increasing cardiovascular risk. The results therefore inform the design of novel therapeutic approaches for hypertension by targeting the perivascular adipose tissue peripheral clock. What is the net clinical benefit of oral anticoagulation for very elderly patients with atrial fibrillation? Well, the next paper by first author Dr Chao, cocorresponding authors, Dr Chen from Taipei Veterans General Hospital and Dr Lip from University of Birmingham, addresses this question. These authors use a nationwide cohorts study in Taiwan to compare the risks of ischemic stroke and intercerebral hemorrhage between patients with and without atrial fibrillation, all aged 90 years and above, from 1996 to 2011, and they also compared patients treated with warfarin and non-vitamin K antagonists oral anticoagulants, or NOX from 2012 to 2015 when NOX were available in Taiwan. They found that even among these very elderly patients aged 90 years and above, atrial fibrillation was associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke compared to patients without atrial fibrillation. Warfarin use was associated with a lower risk of ischemic stroke, with no difference in intercerebral hemorrhage risk compared to nonwarfarin treatment. The use of warfarin was associated with a positive net clinical benefit compared to being untreated or to antiplatelet therapy. Compared to warfarin, NOX were associated with a lower risk of intracerebral hemorrhage, with no difference in the risk of ischemic stroke. Thus, oral anticoagulation may still be considered for thromboprophylaxis in very elderly patients with atrial fibrillation, with NOX being a favorable choice The final paper provides insights into the mechanisms linking obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Co-corresponding authors, Dr Kong and Wang from Peking University Health Science Center and colleagues use a combination of animal models and human adipose biopsies to characterize a new adipokine named family with sequence similarity 19, member A5 or FAM19A5. This novel adipokine was capable of inhibiting post injury neointoma information via sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2 and downstream G12/13-RhoA signaling. Thus, down regulation of FAM19A5 during obesity and loss of its vascular protective function may trigger cardiometabolic diseases. Well, that wraps it up for our summaries. Now for our feature discussion. I'm just so excited about today's feature discussion, because we're talking about Circulation going global. And I am just absolutely delighted to have with us, our Editor-in-Chief himself, Dr Joe Hill from UT Southwestern, as well as our Senior Advisory Editor, Dr Paul Armstrong from University of Alberta. So Joe, could you start by telling us a little bit more about your vision for the global outreach of Circulation? Dr Joe Hill: Thank you, Carolyn. As I hope our readers are aware, Circulation is a global journal with a global footprint. We have editors distributed around the world in 16 countries and 10 time zones. And importantly, those editors all have an equivalent role at the leadership table. Part of the reason for this is because cardiovascular disease is now, as we are all aware, a global scourge. There are no more final frontiers for cardiovascular disease. That said, the manifestations of cardiovascular disease differ in different parts of the world. In the developed world, and the developing world, for example, the way cardiovascular disease manifests itself can be very different. And at the same time, the way in which the disorders are tackled are different. The way we tackle heart disease in the West can be different than it is in the East, for example. And there are important initiatives that have emerged in different pockets of the world, best practices that we need to understand better. What can we all learn from the way in which cardiovascular disease manifests itself around the world and it's being addressed around the world? Dr Carolyn Lam: Joe, you had me at hello. I remember that when you first took over as Editor-in - Chief and I heard you say this, I was just floored, because coming from Singapore and all our listeners out there in Japan and China, we just really appreciate that global outlook. So thank you, on behalf of us all. Tell us a bit more about this new initiative then for the journal. Dr Joe Hill: I will tell you in broad strokes, that Paul Armstrong, a noted clinical trial is from Canada, who is a household name in the cardiovascular world, he and I cooked up a scheme that Paul will describe, where we will reach out on a regular basis for insights from various different countries, ultimately, circling the globe progressively over time. And I will defer to Paul to tell us more about the specifics. Dr Paul Armstrong: Carolyn, it's an exciting initiative and as someone a little long in the tooth, but still believing that you can teach an old dog new tricks, I would point out that Circulation is almost 70 years old, and it has staying power. And one of the reasons that it has staying power is because it is capable of reinventing itself, and so I was attracted to help out again, from the editorial process, given Joe's vision and leadership and the excitement around the reinvention that you've described, to get involved with this initiative. And I was inspired, of course, by the fact that those of us who do clinical trials appreciate that a lot of different ideas, a lot of different cultures and perspectives are brought to a collaborative table. And I'm thinking back now, Carolyn to three years ago, when you and I first met enjoying courses as part of a trial in heart failure, which involves 43 countries, 800 sites, it will be 5000 patients centers, we've traveled separately and together around the world, convincing people that there are unmet needs in heart failure and other parts of cardiovascular disease, we learned that the approach to standard of care, the rigor which is applied, the exquisite sensitivities around differences that are meaningful, and the tricks that some investigators and countries use that we can all I think, learn from has been very revealing. So I think in this initiative, we want to have thought leaders. And we've already I think, commenced and have two outstanding leaders from Japan and India to come forward in the first two quarters of this initiative. Tell us about the regional epidemiologic features, cardiovascular disease in their regions, what the most important challenges are, what their best practices are, that you're alluded to, who provides cardiovascular care and what the impediments are to progressing because we think if we listen and learn as essentially knowledge brokers, because welcome to Circulation, we can facilitate raising the level of all of the boats in the water and potentially make new partnerships and do a better job. So I'm excited about this. I'm delighted that Joe was receptive and really look forward to working with him and some of these terrific people around the world, you included who brings such a unique and important perspective from which we can all learn. Dr Carolyn Lam: Oh, I love that so much Paul. Thanks for putting it that way. International knowledge brokers, that's what we hope to be. Isn't that fabulous, just an opportunity to learn from each other, everybody having stuff to bring to the table? Tell us a bit more though, what are you looking for in these papers? Dr Paul Armstrong: We have some guidelines. But as Joe insists we're not going to be formulaic. We're going to allow diversity of approaches. We're going to invite a thought leader and hope that that thought leader might invite one or two others, we want to limit it to three co-authors. We want obviously some insights into how cardiovascular health professionals are being trained, what research infrastructure exists, and how they access the literature, how do they read Circulation, how do they read other journals, and are there collaborative ideas that they've developed to their neighbors to the East and West that may be could be broadened? Are there unmet needs that they've indicated similar or different from those in Western Europe, South America? We've got about seven or eight points of light that we hope to illuminate in the course of this exercise. And the prospectus that's laid out in an editorial that Joe and I collaborated on that I believe, Joe, is going to come out in early July. Dr Joe Hill: That's exactly right, Paul. And I would just echo exactly what you said that just the opposite of a formulaic, cookie cutter approach. We want to leverage the beautiful diversity of our world. The different approaches that people take to attack this scourge that is keeping a humble approach to tackle instead of the visas that is humbling bar none. There is nothing that is more globally important than the continued growth and expansion of cardiovascular disease. And importantly, we can all learn from each other. There are exciting initiatives that I've learned about in South America and in pockets of Europe and in Asia, and in the Middle East that we can all benefit from, and we want to shine a bright light on that. These pieces will be relatively short. They will be in our Frame of Reference section, so 1200 words or so, so that they are accessible so that people, you know, feel that they can carve out, you know, four minutes in their busy day to read what cardiovascular disease looks like, as Paul said, our first ones will be from Japan and India, and we plan to reach out to South America and to the Middle East, and just continue on around until over the course of the next number of years, we've touched virtually every country in the world. Dr Carolyn Lam: And that's huge. And are there any specific types of cardiovascular disease that you might be looking to focus on? Dr Joe Hill: You know, I don't think so. One of the points that I have made and learned is that in the West, in the developed world, cardiovascular disease increasingly has become a chronic disorder where more and more people, over the course of the last six years are surviving their acute coronary syndrome, their tachyarrhythmia events, and they are developing chronic disorders like heart failure, whereas in the East, it is the atherothrombotic manifestations that have both MI and stroke that are expanding rapidly. So given that the face of cardiovascular disease is different in different parts of the world, different strategies have to be leveraged to address that, and we want to learn about that. Dr Carolyn Lam: I would love to have you both come talk again, when we receive some of these papers and just reflect on the things that we're learning. Paul, did you have anything else that you wanted to add? Dr Paul Armstrong: I think, Carolyn that hits the high spots. I suppose we should mention diabetes and obesity and the expanding epidemic that seems to effect some regions such as India, in the Middle East, even more than other areas, but I think this is going to be great. We're gonna have some fun and learn and exciting and hopefully it will catalyze better care and better thinking around this enemy that we all face. Dr Carolyn Lam: Listeners. You heard it right here, Circulation on the Run. I'm sure you're excited as I am about this. You have to read the editorial. It's a fantastic read. Thanks for joining us today. And don't forget to tune in again next week.
