DIARY OF THE FIRST DAY OF THE FORUM

DIARY OF THE FIRST DAY OF THE FORUM

            On March 21, the opening ceremony of the International Forum of Cardiology and Internal Medicine was held and the scientific sessions began in four halls of the RussianAcademy of Sciences. An introductory speech and a greeting were made by Academician Oganov R.G. and Professor Mamedov M.N. Traditionally, the Organizing Committee awarded 5 scientists and clinicians with diplomas for their contribution to the development of cardiac science and therapeutic services. Reports were presented at the plenary session by Prof. Kukharchuk V.V. (Moscow) on dyslipidemia, Professor Khalimova Yu.Sh. (St. Petersburg) on the hypoglycemic therapy and the main therapist of Uzbekistan, Professor Kamilova U.K. (Tashkent) on nephroprotection.

            On the first day of the forum more than 600 delegates from various regions of Russia and foreign countries were registered. For the first time, large delegations of Turkey (100 delegates) and Moldova (30 delegates) took part in the work of the Forum.

            Two symposia were held with the participation of Turkish scientists: on atrial fibrillation and rheumatoid arthritis. At the end of the meetings, Russian and Turkish experts had an interesting discussion and exchange of opinions.

            The first meeting of young scientists also took place on March 21. All young scientists reported the results of their own research and answered questions. At the end of the meeting, they received diplomas and souvenirs.

            Within the framework of the forum, master classes, round tables and symposia were held in various areas of cardiology and somatic diseases with the participation of academicians and corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, also leading professors.

            A small exhibition of industry aroused great interest among the delegates of the Forum. All participants noted the academicity and independence of the reports, the meetings had a democratic aura.

Scientific news

  • Prenatal Exercise Cuts Common Pregnancy Complications Moderate-intensity physical activity during pregnancy is known to be safe for the mother and foetus, but does it reduce the risk for medical complications? A new up-to-date review summarises the data, including seven meta-analyses, which establishes that prenatal exercise prevents hypertension disorders in pregnancy (HDP), including gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). These are the most common medical complications of pregnancy, affecting up to 15% of pregnant women.
  • Heart Failure, Not Stroke, Most Common Complication of A-Fib The lifetime risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) increased from 2000 to 2022 from one in four to one in three, a Danish population-based study of temporal trends found.
  • Incremental value of machine learning for risk prediction in tetralogy of Fallot Machine learning (ML) can facilitate prediction of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). We sought to determine the incremental value of ML above expert clinical judgement for risk prediction in rTOF.
  • Can Treating Depression Mitigate CVD Risk? Depression is linked to a significantly increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly in women, new data from a large retrospective cohort study show. Researchers suggest that screening and treating patients for depression may lead to a decreased incidence of CVD.
  • Gout Increases the Risk for a Wide Range of Cardiovascular Diseases People with gout are 58% more likely to develop cardiovascular disease (CVD), according to a new analysis. This increased risk was observed across 12 different cardiovascular conditions, including heart failure, arrhythmias, and valve diseases.
