    UNa+ Levels Associated With Mortality, Hospitalizations in Patients With HF - American College of Cardiology - 20 day(s) ago

    Longitudinal levels of pre-diuretic spot urinary sodium (UNa+) showed a decreasing trajectory over time in ambulatory outpatients with stable, chronic heart failure (HF), and lower levels of UNa+ were associated with increased risks in all-cause mortality and long-term, HF-related hospitalizations, according to a brief report published in JACC: Heart Failure. In the ob servational, single-center prospective study conducted in Spain, Miguel Lorenzo, MD, et al., assessed 5,126 UNa+ determinations (collected

    Is Aficamten Plus Disopyramide More Effective Than Aficamten Alone in oHCM? - American College of Cardiology - 1 month(s) ago

    The addition of aficamten to disopyramide was effective and well-tolerated in patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) with persistent left ventricular overflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, and the withdrawal of disopyramide did not reduce the effectiveness of aficamten, according to research published May 7 in JACC: Heart Failure. Ahmad Masri, MD, FACC, et al., drew from three trials of patients with oHCM: the open-label REDWOOD-HCM Cohort 3, the placebo-controlled SEQUOIA-HCM

    DCD Heart Transplantation With taNRP vs. DPP: Outcomes at 1 Year - American College of Cardiology - 1 month(s) ago

    Donation after circulatory determination of death (DCD) heart transplant recipients with hearts retrieved via thoraco-abdominal normothermic regional perfusion (taNRP) were less likely to have severe primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and exhibited fewer episodes of biopsy-proven acute-cellular rejection (ACR) at one year compared to those with hearts retrieved through direct procurement and perfusion (DPP), according to an international, multicenter study presented at ISHLT 2025 and simultaneously published
