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) < 40%], mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF; 40% ≤ LVEF < 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 < 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.

Backgrounds: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has recently emerged as a measure of inflammation and as a prognosticating biomarker in various medical conditions ranging from infectious disease to cardiovascular disease. The prognostic significance of NLR in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is not established. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of NLR in ADHF patients, relating to reduced or preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF or HFpEF). Methods and Results: We studied 264 patients admitted with ADHF and discharged with survival (HFrEF(LVEF<50%); n=144, HFpEF(LVEF≥50%;n=120). There was no significant difference in NLR at the discharge between patients with HFrEF (2.1±1.1) and HFpEF (2.1±1.0). During a follow up period of 4.2±3.2 yrs, 87 pts died. NLR was significantly associated with mortality in patients with HFrEF (p<0.0001) and HFpEF (p=0.006) at univariate Cox analysis. All cause-death was significantly frequently observed in patients with the highest tertile of NLR (>2.2) than those with the middle or lowest tertile of NLR(<1.5) in patients with HFrEF (60% vs 36% vs 20%, p<0.0001, respectively) and HFpEF (43% vs 20% vs 14%, p=0.004, respectively). After adjustment for baseline characteristics, echocardiographical findings, and blood tests such as hemoglobin, sodium level and estimated glomerular filtration rate, NLR remained a significant independent predictor for mortality in patients with HFrEF (hazard ratio: 1.23 [95%CI 1.04-1.54], p=0.017), while NLR tended to be a independent predictor in those with HFpEF (hazard ratio:1.29 [95%CI 0.98-1.71], p=0.07). Conclusion: NLR at the discharge provides a prognostic value for the prediction of total mortality in ADHF patients with HFrEF and HFpEF, although the prognostic significance of NLR in patients with HFpEF was weakened by adjustment for relevant covariates.
