RESUMO

PURPOSE OF THE WORK: Although sex-specific differences in heart failure (HF) or kidney disease (KD) have been analyzed separately, the predominant cardiorenal phenotype by sex has not been described. This study aims to explore the sex-related differences in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) in a contemporary cohort of outpatients with HF. FINDINGS: An analysis of the Cardiorenal Spanish registry (CARDIOREN) was performed. CARDIOREN Registry is a prospective multicenter observational registry including 1107 chronic ambulatory HF patients (37% females) from 13 Spanish HF clinics. Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 was present in 59.1% of the overall HF population, being this prevalence higher in the female population (63.2% vs. 56.6%, p = 0.032, median age: 81 years old, IQR:74-86). Among those with kidney dysfunction, women displayed higher odds of showing HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) (odds ratio [OR] = 4.07; confidence interval [CI] 95%: 2.65-6.25, p < 0.001), prior valvular heart disease (OR = 1.76; CI 95%:1.13-2.75, p = 0.014), anemia (OR: 2.02; CI 95%:1.30-3.14, p = 0.002), more advanced kidney disease (OR for CKD stage 3: 1.81; CI 95%:1.04-3.13, p = 0.034; OR for CKD stage 4: 2.49, CI 95%:1.31-4.70, p = 0.004) and clinical features of congestion (OR:1.51; CI 95%: 1.02-2.25, p = 0.039). On the contrary, males with cardiorenal disease showed higher odds of presenting HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (OR:3.13; CI 95%: 1.90-5.16, p < 0.005), ischemic cardiomyopathy (OR:2.17; CI 95%: 1.31-3.61, p = 0.003), hypertension (OR = 2.11; CI 95%:1.18-3.78, p = 0.009), atrial fibrillation (OR:1.71; CI 95%: 1.06-2.75, p = 0.025), and hyperkalemia (OR:2.43, CI 95%: 1.31-4.50, p = 0.005). In this contemporary registry of chronic ambulatory HF patients, we observed sex-related differences in patients with combined heart and kidney disease. The emerging cardiorenal phenotype characterized by advanced CKD, congestion, and HFpEF was predominantly observed in women, whereas HFrEF, ischemic etiology, hypertension, hyperkalemia, and atrial fibrillation were more frequently observed in men.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: There is scarce evidence supporting the clinical utility of congestive intrarenal venous flow (IRVF) patterns in patients with acute heart failure. OBJECTIVES: This study aims to: 1) investigate the association between IRVF patterns and the odds of worsening renal function (WRF); 2) track the longitudinal changes of serum creatinine (sCr) across IRVF at predetermined points and its association with decongestion; and 3) explore the relationship between IRVF/WRF categories and patient outcomes. METHODS: IRVF was assessed at baseline (pre-decongestive therapy), 72 hours, and 30 and 90 days postdischarge. Changes in sCr trajectories across dynamic IRVF variations and parameters of decongestion were assessed using linear mixed effect models. The association between IRVF/WRF categories and outcomes was evaluated using univariable/multivariable models. RESULTS: In this prospective, multicenter study with 188 participants, discontinuous IRVF patterns indicated higher odds of WRF (OR: 3.90 [95% CI: 1.24-12.20]; P = 0.020 at 72 hours; and OR: 5.76 [95% CI: 1.67-19.86]; P = 0.006 at 30 days) and an increase in sCr (Δ-72 hours 0.14 mg/dL [95% CI: 0.06-0.22]; P = 0.001; Δ-discharge 0.13 mg/dL [95% CI: 0.03-0.23]; P = 0.007). However, the diuretic response and decongestion significantly influenced the magnitude of these changes. Patients exhibiting both WRF and discontinuous IRVF at 30 days experienced an increased hazard of adverse events (HR: 5.96 [95% CI: 2.63-13.52]; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Discontinuous IRVF identifies patients with higher odds of WRF during admission and postdischarge periods. Nonetheless, adequate diuretic response and decongestion could modify this association. Patients showing both WRF and discontinuous IRVF at 30 days had increased rates of adverse events.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Patients with combined heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been underrepresented in clinical trials. The prevalence of CKD in these patients and their clinical profile require constant evaluation. This study aimed to analyze the prevalence of CKD, its clinical profile, and patterns of use of evidence-based medical therapies in HF across CKD stages in a contemporary cohort of ambulatory patients with HF. METHODS: From October 2021 to February 2022, the CARDIOREN registry included 1107 ambulatory HF patients from 13 HF clinics in Spain. RESULTS: The median age was 75 years, 63% were male, and 48% had heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF). A total of 654 (59.1%) had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2, and 122 (11%) patients with eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 had a urine albumin-creatinin ratio ≥ 30 mg/g. The most important variables associated with lower eGFR were age (R2=61%) and furosemide dose (R2=21%). The proportion of patients receiving an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/ angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB), an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNi), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), or a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) progressively decreased with lower eGFR categories. Notably, 32% of the patients with HFrEF and an eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 received the combination of ACEI/ARB/ARNi+beta-blockers+MRA+SGLT2i. CONCLUSIONS: In this contemporary HF registry, 70% of patients had kidney disease. Although this population is less likely to receive evidence-based therapies, structured and specialized follow-up approaches within HF clinics may facilitate the adoption of these life-saving drugs.

RESUMO

Background: Albuminuria could potentially emerge as a novel marker of congestion in acute heart failure. However, the current evidence linking albuminuria and congestion in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) remains somewhat scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of albuminuria in a cohort of patients with CHF, identify the independent factors associated with albuminuria and analyse the correlation with different congestion parameters. Methods: This is a subanalysis of the Spanish Cardiorenal Registry, in which we enrolled 864 outpatients with heart failure and a value of urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (UACR) at the first visit. Results: The median age was 74 years, 549 (63.5%) were male and 438 (50.7%) had a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. A total of 350 patients (40.5%) had albuminuria. Among these patients, 386 (33.1%) had a UACR of 30-300 mg/g and 64 (7.4%) had a UACR >300 mg/g. In order of importance, the independent variables associated with higher UACR were estimated glomerular filtration rate determined by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation (R2 = 57.6%), systolic blood pressure (R2 = 21.1%), previous furosemide equivalent dose (FED; R2 = 7.5%), antigen carbohydrate 125 (CA125; R2 = 6.1%), diabetes mellitus (R2 = 5.6%) and oedema (R2 = 1.9%). The combined influence of oedema, elevated CA125 levels and the FED accounted for 15.5% of the model's variability. Conclusions: In patients with chronic stable heart failure, the prevalence of albuminuria is high. The risk factors of albuminuria in this population are chronic kidney disease and hypertension. Congestion parameters are also associated with increased albuminuria.

RESUMO

AIMS: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with left heart disease is an increasingly prevalent problem, orphan of targeted therapies, and related to a poor prognosis, particularly when pre- and post-capillary PH combine. The current study aimed to determine whether treatment with the selective ß3 adrenoreceptor agonist mirabegron improves outcomes in patients with combined pre- and post-capillary PH (CpcPH). METHODS AND RESULTS: The ß3 Adrenergic Agonist Treatment in Chronic Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Heart Failure (SPHERE-HF) trial is a multicentre, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled clinical trial that enrolled stable patients with CpcPH associated with symptomatic heart failure. A total of 80 patients were assigned to receive mirabegron (50 mg daily, titrated till 200 mg daily, n = 39) or placebo (n = 41) for 16 weeks. Of them, 66 patients successfully completed the study protocol and were valid for the main analysis. The primary endpoint was the change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) on right heart catheterization. Secondary outcomes included the change in right ventricular (RV) ejection fraction by cardiac magnetic resonance or computed tomography, other haemodynamic variables, functional class, and quality of life. The trial was negative for the primary outcome (placebo-corrected mean difference of 0.62 Wood units, 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.38, 1.61, p = 0.218). Patients receiving mirabegron presented a significant improvement in RV ejection fraction as compared to placebo (placebo-corrected mean difference of 3.0%, 95% CI 0.4, 5.7%, p = 0.026), without significant differences in other pre-specified secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: SPHERE-HF is the first clinical trial to assess the potential benefit of ß3 adrenergic agonists in PH. The trial was negative since mirabegron did not reduce PVR, the primary endpoint, in patients with CpcPH. On pre-specified secondary outcomes, a significant improvement in RV ejection fraction assessed by advanced cardiac imaging was found, without differences in functional class or quality of life.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: The present report describes the clinical characteristics and outcomes of heart transplants in Spain and updates the data to 2019. METHODS: We describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of heart transplants performed in Spain in 2019, as well as trends in this procedure from 2010 to 2018. RESULTS: In 2019, 300 transplants were performed (8794 since 1984; 2745 between 2010 and 2019). Compared with previous years, the most notable findings were the decreasing rate of urgent transplants (38%), and the consolidation of the type of circulatory support prior to transplant, with an almost complete disappearance of counterpulsation balloon (0.7%), stabilization in the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (9.6%), and an increase in the use of ventricular assist devices (29.0%). Survival from 2016 to 2018 was similar to that from 2013 to 2015 (P=.34). Survival in both these periods was better than that from 2010 to 2012 (P=.002 and P=.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Heart transplant activity has remained stable during the last few years, as have outcomes (in terms of survival). There has been a trend to a lower rate of urgent transplants and to a higher use of ventricular assist devices prior to transplant.
