Commentary on Twitter
In a cluster-randomized trial in 48 residential elderly care facilities in China, a low-sodium salt substitute instead of regular salt decreased blood pressure and cardiovascular events, while restricting salt consumption did not show beneficial effects https://t.co/Zp0fWH0aA2

Commentary on Twitter
The AWARE Trial tested an augmented WACA in pts with paroxysmal AF. A high single procedure freedom from AF was noted without an improvement compared to single WACA. There might be a “ceiling effect” to catheter ablation in patients with paroxysmal AF. https://t.co/2ihyHwHlTA pic.twitter.com/waSbp0QF1a
