Pulse pressure and aortic valve peak velocity and incident heart failure after myocardial infarction: a cohort study

Heart BMJ

Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a recognised outcome in patients with myocardial infarction, although heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is more common. fold higher risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (95% CI 1.30

Pulse pressure and aortic valve peak velocity as new predictors of heart failure in patients post-myocardial infarction

Heart BMJ

Heart failure (HF) is one of the significant complications in patients with myocardial infarction (MI), leading to increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. 2 However, mortality rate is greater in HF cases developing >3 days following MI compared with less than or equal to 3 days after MI.

Beta‐blocker use and outcomes in patients with heart failure and mildly reduced and preserved ejection fraction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Beta-blockers are commonly used in patients with heart failure and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmrEF/HFpEF). Methods and results We pooled individual patient data from four large HFmrEF/HFpEF trials (I-Preserve, TOPCAT, PARAGON-HF, and DELIVER).

Systematic review and meta-analysis of early aortic valve replacement versus conservative therapy in patients with asymptomatic aortic valve stenosis with preserved left ventricle systolic function

Open Heart

The secondary outcomes were composite major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (study defined), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, cardiac death, sudden death, the development of symptoms, heart failure hospitalisations and major bleeding. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. to 1.1), I 2 =31%, p=0.09).

Dapagliflozin and Apparent Treatment-Resistant Hypertension in Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction: The DELIVER Trial

Circulation

BACKGROUND:Apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (aTRH) is prevalent and associated with adverse outcomes in heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Less is known about the potential role of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition in this high-risk population.

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists in Heart Failure: An Update

Circulation: Heart Failure

Circulation: Heart Failure, Volume 17, Issue 12 , Page e011629, December 1, 2024. Spironolactone, a steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), has been used to treat patients with heart failure (HF) for more than half a century. The use of MRAs has been limited due to excessive concern about hyperkalemia.
