RESUMEN

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)

ABSTRACT
