đź’¬ Invited Commentary: Flynn et al demonstrate that clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) represents an independent, gene-specific risk factor for incident heart failure (HF), highlighting the need for gene-targeted prevention strategies in cardiovascular care.

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), especially non-DNMT3A driver gene subtypes, was independently associated with increased risk of incident heart failure (HF).

Mediation analyses indicate CHIP-associated comorbidities such as coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease explain only a minority of this risk, suggesting direct myocardial effects.

💬 Editor's Note: Jain et al present a prospective pilot application of an -driven model to identify patients at risk for amyloid transthyretin cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), demonstrating the model’s potential for enhanced detection.

Despite improved predictive value, challenges remain, including limited uptake of diagnostic testing and the need to clarify the impact of earlier detection on patient outcomes and health system costs.

An model (ATTRACTnet) integrated electrocardiogram data, echo metrics, demographics, and diagnosis codes to support detection of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).

The program identified undiagnosed, high-risk patients, achieving a positive test rate 2.8 times higher than historical controls and an 18% relative increase in new diagnoses over the previous year.

JAMA Cardiology marks its 10th anniversary with a leadership transition that builds on a decade of extraordinary growth.

Today we welcome Barbara Casadei, MD, DPhil, from the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, as Editor in Chief. An internationally recognized clinician‑scientist, Dr Casadei brings extensive experience in global cardiovascular research.

In her inaugural Editorial, Dr Casadei outlines a vision focused on:

📌 Make JAMA Cardiology a global meeting place, fostering engagement and contributions from a diverse, international community. The journal will disseminate trustworthy, evidence-based information, especially on managing increasingly older and complex patients, while addressing the challenges posed by misinformation and pressures on the profession.

📌 Encourage innovative scholarship that develops new ways to implement preventive measures for cardiovascular disease at scale, learning from countries that have creatively overcome cultural, financial, or geographic obstacles

📌 Demystify emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), and make them accessible and familiar to the cardiovascular community and narrow the divide between clinicians and data/computer scientists.

“We want to inspire and support the next generation of cardiovascular investigators and hold ourselves responsible for communicating the importance of conducting research that has the potential to improve cardiovascular health and, thus, the quality of life of hundreds of millions of people worldwide,” she writes.
