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.

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.

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.
