Background: Heart failure (HF) dramatically alters lifespan and quality of life (1). Screening for HF could potentially reduce HF incidence through targeted risk factor reduction but is not regularly used, in part because of the difficulty in identifying high-risk populations to screen.

Mashup Score: 9
BACKGROUND: Cardiorenal dysfunction with impaired cyclic GMP (cGMP) response is common in patients presenting with acute heart failure (HF). Type V phosphodiesterase (PDEV) is known to be upregulated in HF and may explain the dysfunction of renal response. The aim of this study was to determine whether B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) alone or in combination with PDEV inhibition improves renal function and increases urinary sodium and cGMP excretion in acute HF. METHODS: This open-label study included 67 patients hospitalized with acute HF and renal dysfunction. Patients were randomized to standard care, low-dose intravenous BNP (0.005 µg/kg per minute), or combination BNP/PDEV inhibition with sildenafil (25 mg q12 hours) for 48 hours. The coprimary end points were the percent change in estimated glomerular filtration rate and blood urea nitrogen from baseline to 48 hours. RESULTS: Treatment with BNP and BNP/PDEV inhibitor significantly increased plasma cGMP at 24 hours (+25.6% [+9.8%,

Mashup Score: 12Reshaping the Use of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair in Patients With Heart Failure: the RESHAPE-HF2 Trial - American College of Cardiology - 10 day(s) ago
Despite Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) in 2013, its impact in patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) and significant functional mitral regurgitation (MR) despite maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) has remained in question. This uncertainty is partly due to contrasting results from previous trials such as the MITRA-FR (Percutaneous Repair With the MitraClip Device for Severe Functional/Secondary Mitral

Mashup Score: 1Canagliflozin Mediates Mitophagy Through the AMPK/PINK1/Parkin Pathway to Alleviate ISO-induced Cardiac Remodeling - PubMed - 17 day(s) ago
Heart failure has always been a prevalent, disabling, and potentially life-threatening disease. For the treatment of heart failure, controlling cardiac remodeling is very important. In recent years, clinical trials have shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors not only excel in …
