ABSTRACT
Resumen: La necesidad de distanciamiento social impuesta por la actual pandemia por coronavirus obligó a las diferentes sociedades científicas a realizar sus actividades en formato completamente virtual. La Sociedad Europea de Cardiología no ha sido la excepción. Desde el 29 de agosto al 1 de septiembre de 2020 se celebró este evento sin precedentes que, además de contar con 125.000 profesionales de 213 países, permitió el acceso gratuito a todos los cibernautas. De esta manera, la actualidad en cardiología pudo llegar a todos los rincones del mundo, pese a las circunstancias tan complejas. Como ya es tradición de la revista, realizamos un resumen de los principales ensayos presentados durante el congreso: - Early Rhythm-Control Therapy in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (EAST-AFNET 4) - Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes with Empagliflozin in Heart Failure (The EMPEROR-Reduced Trial Investigators) - Efficacy and Safety of Mavacamten in Adults with Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (EXPLORER-HCM) - Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibition Compared with Individualized Medical Therapy for Comorbidities in Patients with Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction (The PARALLAX Trial) - A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dapagliflozin on Renal Outcomes and Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (DAPA-CKD) - Aspirin with or without Clopidogrel after Transcatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation (POPULAR TAVI (Cohort A)) - Colchicine in Patients with Chronic Coronary Disease (The LoDoCo2 Trial Investigators) - Pharmacological Blood Pressure-Lowering for Primary and Secondary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Across Different Levels of Blood Pressure (BPLTTC) - Continuing versus suspending angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers: Impact on adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (The BRACE CORONA Trial) - Randomized Trial of Transfusion Strategies in Patients with Myocardial Infarction and Anemia (REALITY Trial)
Summary The need for social distancing imposed by the current coronavirus pandemic, forced the different scientific societies to carry out their activities in a completely virtual format. And the European Society of Cardiology has not been the exception. From August 29 to September 1 of 2020, this unprecedented event was held which, in addition to having 125,000 health professionals from 213 countries, allowed free access to all netizens. In this way, current affairs in cardiology could reach all corners of the world, despite such complex circumstances. As is the tradition of the magazine, we present a summary of the main essays presented during the congress: - Early Rhythm-Control Therapy in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (EAST-AFNET 4) - Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes with Empagliflozin in Heart Failure (The EMPEROR-Reduced Trial Investigators) - Efficacy and Safety of Mavacamten in Adults with Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (EXPLORER-HCM) - Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibition Compared with Individualized Medical Therapy for Comorbidities in Patients with Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction (The PARALLAX Trial) - A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dapagliflozin on Renal Outcomes and Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (DAPA-CKD) - Aspirin with or without Clopidogrel after Transcatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation (POPULAR TAVI (Cohort A)) - Colchicine in Patients with Chronic Coronary Disease (The LoDoCo2 Trial Investigators) - Pharmacological Blood Pressure-Lowering for Primary and Secondary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Across Different Levels of Blood Pressure (BPLTTC) - Continuing versus suspending angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers: Impact on adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (The BRACE CORONA Trial) - Randomized Trial of Transfusion Strategies in Patients with Myocardial Infarction and Anemia (REALITY Trial)

ABSTRACT
Resumen: La pandemia generada por el SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus) ha constituido un desafío mundial. En momentos de dificultad como los que se han presentado recientemente, es aún más necesaria la investigación para avanzar en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de las diferentes patologías. Utilizando el amplio desarrollo de los medios de comunicación, este año el Congreso del Colegio Americano de Cardiología (ACC por su sigla en inglés) se celebró del 28 al 30 de marzo en un formato virtual, permitiendo a profesionales de todo el mundo acceder a múltiples actividades científicas con el mismo nivel de excelencia que en las sesiones presenciales. Realizaremos un breve resumen de alguno de los principales trabajos científicos presentados: - Tailored Antiplatelet Initiation to Lessen Outcomes Due to Decreased Clopidogrel Response after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: TAILOR-PCI. - Rivaroxaban in Peripheral Artery Disease after Revascularization: VOYAGER PAD trial. - Vericiguat in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction: VICTORIA Study Group. - The Evolut Low Risk Bicuspid Study. - PARTNER 3. Two-year clinical and echocardiographic outcomes. - Ticagrelor with and without Aspirin in Acute Coronary Syndrome After PCI: the TICO Trial - Apixaban for the Treatment of Venous Thromboembolism Associated with Cancer: Caravaggio trial. - Ten-year Outcomes After Drug-eluting Stents Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting for Left Main Coronary Disease: Extended Follow Up of the PRECOMBAT Trial. - Anticoagulation with or without Clopidogrel after Transcatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation: POPular TAVI.
Summary The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has been a global challenge. In times of difficulty such as those that have recently arisen, research is even more necessary to advance in the diagnosis and treatment of different pathologies. Using the extensive development of the media, this year the American Congress of Cardiology was held from March 28 to 30 in a virtual format, allowing professionals from around the world to access multiple scientific activities with the same level of excellence as in face-to-face sessions. We will make a brief summary of some of the main scientific papers presented: - Tailored Antiplatelet Initiation to Lessen Outcomes Due to Decreased Clopidogrel Response after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: TAILOR-PCI. - Rivaroxaban in Peripheral Artery Disease after Revascularization: VOYAGER PAD trial:. - Vericiguat in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction: VICTORIA Study Group. - The Evolut Low Risk Bicuspid Study. - PARTNER 3.
