Methods A total of 10 366 patients with chronic HF from 34 Dutch outpatient HF clinics were analysed regarding diuretic use and diuretic dose. Advanced symptoms, diabetes mellitus and worse renal function were significantly associated with a higher diuretic dose regardless of left ventricular ejection fraction.

When compared with placebo, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists such as once-weekly semaglutide (semaglutide OW T2D) improve cardiovascular outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D), whereas dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) do not. However, no head-to-head trials of these 2 incretin-based drug classes have been conducted.

Background Heart failure (HF), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) commonly coexist. Inpatient and outpatient healthcare utilisation rates were highest in CKD and HF, and lowest in CKD and T2D. We studied characteristics, prognosis and healthcare utilisation of individuals with two of these conditions.

Conclusion In HF outpatients, TSAT <20% is more consistently associated with congestion by ultrasound and poorer functional capacity than other ID definitions, irrespective of LVEF.
