The Mediterranean diet is the best evidence-based model for cardiovascular prevention. In addition to 2 major randomized secondary prevention trials (Lyon Heart and CORDIOPREV) and 1 primary prevention trial (PREDIMED) that have demonstrated these benefits, there is an unprecedented body of high-quality prospective epidemiological evidence supporting these beneficial effects. The key elements of this traditional pattern are the abundant use of extra-virgin olive oil and high consumption of foods of natural plant-based origin (fruits, vegetables, nuts, and legumes) and fish, along with a reduction in processed meats, red meats, and ultraprocessed products. Moderate consumption of wine, preferably red wine, with meals is an essential element of this traditional pattern. Although removing wine consumption from the Mediterranean diet has been associated with a reduction in its preventive efficacy, doubts have recently arisen about the possible adverse effect of even low or moderate intake of any alcoholic beverages. A new large Spanish trial, UNATI, which will begin in June 2024, will randomize 10 000 drinkers aged 50 to 75 years to abstention or moderate consumption. UNATI aims to answer these doubts with the best possible evidence.

Introduction and objectives
The present study sought to establish the diagnostic yield of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in a large cohort of patients admitted with myocardial infarction (MI) with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) based on the timing of referral to CMR.
Methods
Consecutive patients referred to CMR from January 2009 to February 2022 with a working diagnosis of MINOCA were retrospectively evaluated. Cine, T2-weighted, early, and late gadolinium-enhanced images were acquired and analyzed. The frequency of the underlying diagnosis and the association between timing of CMR and relative frequency of each diagnosis were assessed.
Results
We included 207 patients (median age 50 years, 60% men). Final diagnosis after CMR was achieved in 91% of the patients (myocarditis in 45%, MI in 20%, tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy in 19%, and other cardiomyopathies in 7%). The performance of CMR within 7 days of admission with MINOCA (median, 5 days; 117 patients) allowed a higher diagnostic yield compared with CMR performed later (median, 10 days; 88 patients) (96% vs 86%, P = .02). Although myocarditis was the most frequent diagnosis in both groups according to time to CMR, its frequency was higher among patients with a CMR performed within the first 7 days (53% vs 35%, P = .02). The frequency of other underlying diagnoses was not influenced by CMR timing.
Conclusions
CMR led to an underlying diagnosis of MINOCA in 91% of patients and its diagnostic yield increased to 96% when CMR was performed within 7 days of admission. The most frequent diagnosis was myocarditis..

The practice of recreational scuba diving has increased worldwide, with millions of people taking part each year. The aquatic environment is a hostile setting that requires human physiology to adapt by undergoing a series of changes that stress the body. Therefore, physical fitness and control of cardiovascular risk factors are essential for practicing this sport. Medical assessment is not mandatory before participating in this sport and is only required when recommended by a health questionnaire designed for this purpose. However, due to the significance of cardiovascular disease, cardiology consultations are becoming more frequent. The aim of the present consensus document is to describe the cardiovascular physiological changes that occur during diving, focusing on related cardiovascular diseases, their management, and follow-up recommendations. The assessment and follow-up of individuals who practice diving with previous cardiovascular disease are also discussed. This document, endorsed by the Clinical Cardiology Association of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (SEC) and the SEC Working Group on Sports Cardiology of the Association of Preventive Cardiology, aims to assist both cardiologists in evaluating patients, as well as other specialists responsible for assessing individuals’ fitness for diving practice.

Introduction and objectives
The PEACE study (Performance of a sirolimus-eluting balloon strategy in acute and chronic coronary syndromes) investigated for the first time whether a sirolimus-coated balloon (SCB) (Magic Touch, Concept Medical, India) is associated with different outcomes depending on whether it is used in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) or chronic coronary syndromes (CCS).
Methods
This was a post-hoc analysis from the all-comers EASTBOURNE Registry (NCT03085823). Out of 2083 patients enrolled, an SCB was used to treat 968 (46.5%) ACS and 1115 (53.5%) CCS patients. The primary endpoint was target lesion revascularization at 12 months, while secondary endpoints were angiographic success and major adverse cardiovascular events.
Results
Baseline demographics, mean reference vessel diameter and mean lesion length were comparable between ACS and CCS. Predilatation was more commonly performed in ACS (P = .007). SCB was inflated at a standard pressure in both groups with a slight trend toward longer inflation time in ACS. Angiographic success was high in both groups (ACS 97.4% vs CCS 97.7%, P = .820) with limited bailout stenting. Similarly, at 12 months the cumulative incidence of target lesion revascularization (ACS 6.6% vs CCS 5.2%, P = .258) was comparable between ACS and CCS. Conversely, a higher rate of major adverse cardiovascular events in acute presenters was mainly driven by myocardial infarction recurrencies (ACS 10.4% vs CCS 8.3%, P = .009). In-stent restenosis showed a higher proportion of target lesion revascularization and major adverse cardiovascular events than de novo lesions, independently of the type of presentation at the index procedure.
Conclusions
This SCB shows good performance in terms of acute and 1-year outcomes independently of the clinical presentation.
简介和目的:PEACE研究(西罗莫司洗脱球囊策略在急慢性冠状动脉综合征中的性能)首次调查了西罗莫司涂层球囊(SCB) (Magic Touch, Concept Medical,印度)是否与不同的结果相关,取决于它是用于急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)还是慢性冠状动脉综合征(CCS)。方法:这是一项来自伊斯特伯恩注册中心(NCT03085823)的事后分析。在入选的2083例患者中,SCB用于治疗968例(46.5%)ACS患者和1115例(53.5%)CCS患者。主要终点是12个月时的目标病变血运重建,而次要终点是血管造影成功和主要不良心血管事件。结果:ACS和CCS的基线人口统计学、平均参考血管直径和平均病变长度具有可比性。预扩张在ACS患者中更为常见(P = .007)。两组SCB均在标准压力下充气,ACS组SCB充气时间稍长。两组的血管造影成功率都很高(ACS 97.4% vs CCS 97.7%, P = 0.820)。同样,在12个月时,ACS和CCS的目标病变血供重建累积发生率(ACS为6.6%,CCS为5.2%,P = 0.258)具有可比性。相反,急性患者主要心血管不良事件发生率较高主要是由心肌梗死复发所致(ACS 10.4% vs CCS 8.3%, P = 0.009)。支架内再狭窄的目标病变血运重建和主要不良心血管事件的比例高于新生病变,与指数手术时的表现类型无关。结论:这种SCB在独立于临床表现的急性和1年预后方面表现良好。
