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.

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.

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.

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.

Abstract Introduction The occurrence of right ventricular disfunction (RVD) is common in heart failure (HF) patients due to Chagas' disease (ChD). However, its clinical and prognostic value has not been studied during episodes of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). Purpose Evaluate the prognostic value of RVD in ADHF patients with ChD during hospitalization and after 180 days of discharge compared to other etiologies. Methods We analysed a prospective cohort of consecutive 768 patients admitted for ADHF between March 2013 and October 2018; 490 (63.7%) patients were male and the median age was 58 (48.3–66.8) years and left ventricular ejection fraction was 26% (median) (IQR 22–35%). We compared the clinical characteristics and the prognosis of ChD patients according to the presence of RVD in the echocardiogram to other etiologies. Results RVD was presented in 289 (37.6%) patients. Among patients with non-chagasic etiologies, those with RVD were younger [53 (41–62) vs 61 (52–70) years, p<0.0001], had high levels of BNP in the moment of hospitalization [1195 (606–2209) vs 886 (366– 555) pg/mL], p<0,0001], received more inotropes (79.2% vs 57.9%, p<0,0001), had longer hospitalization [35 (17–51) vs 21 (10–37) days, p<0.001] and more clinical signs of congestion as hepatomegaly (49% vs 28.6%, p<0.0001); jugular venous distension (68.3% vs 41.2%, p<0.0001) and leg edema (65.4% vs 49.2%, p=0.001). Among patients with ChD, those with RVD were older [61 (48- 66) vs 58 (48 - 67) years, p=0.017], and had more frequently signs of hypoperfusion (56.8% vs 36.5%, p=0.029), jugular venous distension (72.8% vs 52.8%, p=0.01) and hepatomegaly (56.8% vs 31.1%, p=0.011), higher BNP levels [1288 (567–2180) vs 1066 (472–2007) pg/mL, p=0.006] and more frequent use of intravenous inotropes (88.9% vs 67.1%, p=0.003); additionally ChD patients with RVD had a higher rate of death and transplant during hospitalization (51.2% vs 38.3%, p=0.001). When all groups were compared together, ChD patients with RVD had the highest rate of death, transplant and readmissions at 180-days of follow-up (Figure). Figure 1 Conclusion Patients with RVD demonstrated a distinct clinical presentation, biomarkers and worse prognosis in all etiologies. ChD patients with RVD in ADHF had the worst prognosis with the highest rate of death, heart transplant e rehospitalization in follow-up.
