Biomarkers for Heart Failure Hospitalization Identified in Patients With AF
Investigators sought to identify biomarkers for determining risk for developing HF and death in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Heart Failure
SGLT-2 Inhibitors Show Benefit in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Investigators conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials on the effect of SGLT-2 inhibitors on patients with HFpEF.
Wide QRS Width a Predictor for Poor Outcomes Among Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
A study was conducted to determine the relationship between QRS duration and risk for poor clinical outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy With Defibrillators May Reduce Mortality in Women
A study was conducted to evaluate if gender affects mode of death or device efficacy in patients treated with an ICD or cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator.
Acetazolamide Helps Treat Volume Overload in Heart Failure
Rate of successful decongestion higher with addition of acetazolamide to loop diuretic in patients with acute decompensated heart failure
High-Risk PCI With Hemodynamic Support Associated With Improved LVEF at 90 Days
Researchers sought to determine midterm left ventricular ejection fraction in patients that have received high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention.
Device-Measured Physical Activity Tied to Heart Failure Risk
Risk reduced for 150 to 300 min/week of moderate-intensity physical activity and for 75 to 150 min/week vigorous-intensity physical activity
Mobile Health Intervention Increases Activity Among Adults With HF and Diabetes
Researchers sought to assess the effectiveness of a mobile health intervention for patients with heart failure and diabetes.
Higher Vitamin D Levels Associate With Lower Risk for Heart Failure
Researchers sought to determine the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration and heart failure.
Guidelines for Managing HF in Diabetes, Cardiorenal, and Metabolic Conditions
Practice guidelines have been developed regarding management of patients with heart failure and diabetes, cardiorenal, and/or metabolic conditions.
