In the October 7, 2025 issue of JACC, Editor-in-Chief Harlan Krumholz discusses how artificial intelligence can enhance clarity in scientific writing—serving as a tool, not a ghostwriter—while maintaining author accountability. A major study shows that nearly all cardiovascular events occur in people with at least one risk factor, reinforcing the need for early detection and management. Emerging research highlights a percutaneous "debulking" technique that may safely manage infected cardiac device leads, and a revived cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor showing promising lipid and event outcomes. Additional trials explore the benefits of starting combination therapy earlier in diabetes and kidney disease, and a state-of-the-art review revisits the evolving role of fibrinolysis across thromboembolic conditions.
