Backgrounds: Liver dysfunction has a prognostic impact on the outcome of patients with advanced heart failure. A model of end-stage liver disease excluding INR (MELD-XI) is a robust scoring system of liver dysfunction, and a high score has been shown to be associated with poor prognosis in patients with heart failure. However, there is little information available on the long-term prognostic significance of MELD-XI score in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), relating to reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF or HFpEF). Methods and Results: We studied 303 consecutive patients admitted with ADHF and discharged with survival (HFrEF(LVEF<50%); n=163, HFpEF;n=140). MELD-XI score was calculated by the following formula: 5.11[[Unable to Display Character: &#65381;]]ln(bilirubin)+11.79[[Unable to Display Character: &#65381;]]ln(creatinine)+9.44. During a follow-up period of 5.0±4.3 yrs, 75 patients had cardiovascular death (CVD). Receiver-operator curve analysis revealed that MELD-XI score of 12 was a fair discriminator for CVD (AUC 0.704 (95%CI 0.635-0.772), p<0.0001; sensitivity 67% and specificity 62%). In HFrEF group, MELD-XI score was significantly independently associated with CVD (p=0.0037) at multivariate Cox analysis, and patients with high MELD-XI score (≥12) had a higher risk of CVD than those with low MELD score (46% vs 24%, p=0.0038, hazard ratio: 2.20 (95%CI 1.27-3.79)). In HFpEF group, MELD-XI score was also significantly independently associated with CVD (p=0.005) at multivariate Cox analysis, and patients with high MELD-XI score (≥12) had a higher risk of CVD (34% vs 8%, p<0.0001, hazard ratio: 6.25 (95%CI 2.59-15.05)). Conclusion: A MELD-XI scoring system would provide the long-term prognostic information in patients admitted with ADHF, regardless of HFrEF or HFpEF.

Abstract Background Concomitant presence of pulmonary hypertension in heart failure is associated with increased adverse events and may be related to interventricular uncoupling and impaired cardiac efficiency. It has recently been shown that an increased mean pulmonary artery pressure to mean systemic arterial pressure ratio (MPS ratio), a marker of interventricular coupling and efficiency, is associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure. However, there is little information available on the long-term prognostic value of MPS ratio in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), relating to reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF or HFpEF). Methods and results We studied 240 patients admitted for ADHF, who underwent right heart catheterization and were discharged with survival (HFrEF (LVEF≤40%); n=110, HFpEF (LVEF>40%); n=130). MPS ratio was obtained at the admission. During a mean follow-up period of 5.2±4.4 yrs, 59 patients had cardiovascular death (CVD). In both groups with HFrEF and HFpEF, MPS ratio was significantly greater in patients with than without CVD (HFrEF; 0.453±0.101 vs 0.382±0.116, p=0.0035, HFpEF; 0.374±0.118 vs 0.323±0.083, p=0.0091). At multivariate Cox regression analysis, MPS ratio was significantly associated with CVD, independently of eGFR and serum sodium level in HFrEF and HFpEF groups. Patients with high MPS ratio (>0.386 in HFrEF and >0.415 in HFpEF determined by ROC curve analysis) had a significantly increased risk of CVD than those with low MPS ratio in both groups. Conclusions MPS ratio could provide the long-term prognostic information in patients admitted for ADHF, regardless of reduced or preserved LVEF.

New Guidelines

At this year’s ESC congress in London, it was announced an update of the guidelines for the treatment of chronic heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Key change compared to last guidelines is withdrawal the long-term titration strategy and introducing a simpler and faster regimen based on four groups of drugs: blocking the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (ACE-I, ARNI), sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitors (dapagliflozin, empagliflozin), β-adrenolytic drugs, mineralocorticoid receptor inhibitors.

Multicenter Observational Study

Background: Sarcopenia is associated with poor prognosis in chronic heart failure. Fat-free mass index (FFMI) is an indicator of resting energy expenditure and has been used for the clinical diagnosis of sarcopenia. However, the prognostic impact of sarcopenia diagnosed by FFMI remains to be elucidated in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and preserved LVEF (HFpEF), relating to gender. Methods: Patients' data were extracted from The Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT-HFpEF) study, which is a prospective multicenter observational registry for ADHF patients with LVEF ≥50% in Osaka. We studied 621 patients who survived to discharge (men, n=281 and women, n=340). Fat-free mass (FFM) was estimated by the formula [FFM (kg) = 7.38 + 0.02908 х urinary creatinine (mg/day)] and normalized by the square of the patient’s height in meters to calculate FFMI at discharge. Sarcopenia was defined as FFMI <17 kg/m2 in men and <15 kg/m2 in women. The endpoint was all-cause death. Results: During a follow-up period of 1.5±0.8 yrs, 102 patients died (men, n=46 and women, n=56). At multivariate Cox analysis, FFMI was significantly associated with the mortality independently of age, estimated glomerular filtration rate, NT-proBNP and LVEF in both men (p=0.0155) and women (p=0.0223). Patients with sarcopenia had a significantly higher risk of all-cause death than those without sarcopenia in both genders (Figure). Conclusions: In this multicenter study, sarcopenia diagnosed by FFMI was shown to be associated with poor clinical outcome in HFpEF patients admitted with ADHF in both genders.

Diuretic Resistance

Background: Diuretic resistance is associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). However, little information is available on the prognostic significance of diuretic resistance in ADHF patients, relating to reduced, mid-range, or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Methods: We studied 400 consecutive patients who were admitted for ADHF and survived to discharge. Diuretic resistance (DR) was defined by furosemide dose per body weight (BW) at discharge. Patients were classified by DR, and high dose group (higher DR) was defined by furosemide dose of > median value of DR (0.580). The endpoint was a composite of all-cause mortality and unplanned hospitalization for worsening heart failure. Results: There were 139 patients with heart failure with reduced LVEF (HFrEF, LVEF<40%), 86 with mid-range LVEF (HFmrEF, 40%≤LVEF<50%) and 175 with preserved LVEF (HFpEF, LVEF≥50%). There was no significant difference in DR among the three groups (HFrEF; median 0.541 [IQR 0.360-0.786] mg/kg vs HFmrEF; 0.606 [0.398-0.820] mg/kg vs HFpEF; 0.624 [0.380-0.935] mg/kg, p=NS). During follow-up of 2.4±1.6 years, 195 patients reached the endpoint (HFrEF, n=67, HFmrEF, n=44, and HFpEF, n=84). In multivariate Cox analysis, DR was significantly associated with the endpoint independently of age, estimated glomerular filtration rate, plasma brain natriuretic peptide level and LVEF only in HFpEF patients (p<0.0001). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the risk of the endpoint was significantly higher in the patients with higher DR in HFpEF patients, but not in HFrEF or HFmrEF patients (Figure). Conclusions: In this study, higher DR was shown to be associated with poor clinical outcome in HFpEF patients admitted with ADHF.

Staging Classification

Abstract Introduction Recently a multidisciplinary group of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) derived a new classification schema for cardiogenic shock (CS), simple, clinically based and suitable for rapid assessment at the bedside but also arbitrary. Validation in different clinical datasets, specifically in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), is necessary to establish the utility of this proposed classification schema. Purpose We aimed to evaluate the ability of a new SCAI CS staging classification to predict in-hospital mortality in patients with ADHF. Methods We conducted a single-center cohort study, performing a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of consecutive patients admitted with ADHF as a primary diagnosis between January 2015 and January 2019. We excluded patients who were hospitalized for an acute coronary syndrome. Patients were assigned to the modified SCAI Classification for CS: Stage A is “at risk” for CS, stage B is “beginning” shock, stage C is “classic”, stage D is “deteriorating”, and E is “extremis”, and in-hospital mortality was evaluated for each group. All-cause mortality was compared across SCAI stages using Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards models were used to determine the association between SCAI stages and in-hospital mortality after adjusting for age, gender, left ventricular ejection fraction, use of vasoactive medication, mechanical circulatory assist devices, mechanical ventilation, percutaneous coronary intervention and cardiac surgery. Results Among 668 patients with a mean age of 74.9±12 years, 63.9% were male. In-hospital mortality was 11.2%. According to SCAI classification, the proportion of patients in stages A through E was 51.7%, 26.7%, 14.4%, 4.6% and 2.5%. The unadjusted mortality in each stages was: A 0.6%, B 4.5%, C 32.3%, D 61.3%, and E 88.2% (Log Rank P&lt;0.0001). After multivariable adjustment, each SCAI shock stage remained associated with increased in-hospital mortality (all P&lt;0.001 compared to stage A). Compared with SCAI shock stage A, adjusted hazard ratio (HR) values in SCAI shock stages B through E were 5.2, 31, 107, and 185, respectively (Figure). Conclusion In this large clinical cohort of patients with ADHF exclusively, the new SCAI CS staging classification was associated with in-hospital mortality. This finding supports the rationale of the classification in this setting, further prospective trials are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract Aims Cardiac 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) imaging provides prognostic information in patients with chronic heart failure (HF). However, there is little information available on the prognostic role of cardiac 123I-MIBG imaging in patients admitted for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), especially relating to reduced ejection fraction [HFrEF; left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) &lt; 40%], mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF; 40% ≤ LVEF &lt; 50%) and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF; LVEF ≥ 50%). Methods and results We studied 349 patients admitted for ADHF and discharged with survival. Cardiac 123I-MIBG imaging, echocardiography, and venous blood sampling were performed just before discharge. The cardiac 123I-MIBG heart-to-mediastinum ratio (late H/M) was measured on the chest anterior view images obtained at 200 min after the isotope injection. The endpoint was cardiac events defined as unplanned HF hospitalization and cardiac death. During a follow-up period of 2.1 ± 1.4 years, 128 patients had cardiac events (45/127 in HFrEF, 28/78 in HFmrEF, and 55/144 in HFpEF). On multivariable Cox analysis, late H/M was significantly associated with cardiac events in overall cohort (P = 0.0038), and in subgroup analysis of each LVEF subgroup (P = 0.0235 in HFrEF, P = 0.0119 in HFmEF and P = 0.0311 in HFpEF). Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that patients with low late H/M (defined by median) had significantly greater risk of cardiac events in overall cohort (49% vs. 25% P &lt; 0.0001) and in each LVEF subgroup (HFrEF: 48% vs. 23% P = 0.0061, HFmrEF: 51% vs. 21% P = 0.0068 and HFpEF: 50% vs. 26% P = 0.0026). Conclusion Cardiac sympathetic nerve dysfunction was associated with poor outcome in ADHF patients irrespective of HFrEF, HFmrEF, or HFpEF.
