Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Aakash Rana's research focuses on cardiovascular conditions, with a particular emphasis on interventional cardiology and cardiac valve disease. His work has explored rare clinical presentations, such as cor triatriatum sinister in adulthood and late-onset thrombus formation related to left atrial appendage occlusion devices. Rana has also investigated pulmonary vein thrombosis following transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve. His recent publications include studies on the association between epicardial fat thickness and controlled attenuation parameters in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), as well as real-world cardiovascular outcomes of combined SGLT2 inhibitor and GLP1 receptor agonist therapy in individuals with type 2 diabetes. He has also contributed to discussions on sex differences in the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease.
