How should we assess congestive hepatopathy in advanced HF?
Conventional liver tests can be misleading. This State-of-the-Art review explores multimodality assessment, including biopsy & HVPG, and individualized heart vs heart-liver transplant decisions.

📝 Editorial perspective
Is it time to rethink routine fluid restriction in HF? Modern GDMT has transformed care, yet fluid limits remain common. These findings support a more individualized, evidence-informed approach. 💧🫀

🏃Children with HCM are far less active than recommended.
In this multicenter 🇨🇦 study, only 12.5% achieved daily activity targets & ~4% reported regular moderate-to-vigorous exercise. We need better guidance that balances safety & lifelong🫀health.

📝 How should we measure physical activity in pediatric HCM?
This editorial argues that better tools are needed as we move toward shared decision-making. Wearables, questionnaires & exercise testing all have limitations; but measuring activity accurately is essential.
