Determinants of diuresis/natriuresis following ambulatory intravenous loop diuretics for worsening heart failure
Abstract Background The use of intravenous (IV) diuretics in an outpatient setting may represent an alternative to conventional hospitalization. Our objective was to identify factors associated with diuretic response during ambulatory IV diuretic sessions in a population of advanced heart failure…

Multivariate linear regression to predict association of non‐invasive arterial stiffness with cardiovascular events
Abstract Background Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in determining an increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and can also predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and future…

Prevalence and characteristics of upfront diuretic resistance in acute heart failure: The P‐Value‐AHF study
Abstract Aims Diuretic resistance (i.e., insufficient diuretic and natriuretic response to an appropriate dose of intravenously administered loop diuretic) is a major cause of insufficient decongestion in acute heart failure (AHF). Early assessment of diuretic and natriuretic response already after…

Cardiac myosin binding protein C correlate with cardiac troponin I during an exercise training program in patients with HFrEF
Abstract Background Cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyC) is an emerging new biomarker of myocardial injury rising earlier and cleared faster than cardiac troponins. It has discriminatory power similar to high‐sensitive troponins in diagnosing myocardial infarction in patients presenting with…

Journal Article
A pilot study on DNA methylation changes for non‐invasive molecular diagnostics in heart failure
Abstract Aims The current therapeutic approach to ischaemic (IsHF) and non‐ischaemic (NIsHF) heart failure (HF) mainly overlooks the underlying aetiology owing to a lack knowledge of the differential molecular pathways that contribute to HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Alterations in…

Exploring heart failure prevalence and dimensions: A comprehensive NT‐proBNP study in high‐risk primary care patients
Abstract Introduction Early detection of heart failure (HF), particularly in asymptomatic individuals, is essential for timely intervention. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of HF among high‐risk individuals in primary care using N‐terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP)…

Journal Article
IL‐2Rα is a potential biomarker for heart failure diagnosis of patients with end‐stage renal disease and haemodialysis
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of mortality in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing haemodialysis. Identifying novel predictors of HF is essential for improving diagnostic precision and enhancing patient outcomes. Methods This study included 68 participants…

Global myocardial work index predicts response to biventricular pacing in patients with non‐left bundle branch block
Abstract Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF) and wide QRS complex. However, patients with non‐left bundle branch block (LBBB) show a poor response to CRT. This study evaluated myocardial work estimated by pressure–strain loops on…

Decreased endogenous nitric oxide production in acute decompensated heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction
Abstract Aims Heart failure represents a substantial burden to both patients and healthcare systems worldwide. Nitric oxide (NO) dysregulation may play a key role in patients transitioning from chronic to acute heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Plasma nitrite (NO2−) is highly…

Implementation of guidelines for intravenous iron therapy in heart failure patients
Abstract Aims We aim to evaluate the implementation of the 2021 ESC Guidelines regarding screening and treatment of iron deficiency in patients with heart failure (HF) at Karolinska University Hospital. Methods and results Patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)

Journal Article
Aortic stenosis intricacies beyond the valve: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study
Abstract Aims Numerous observational studies have reported an association between calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS) and an increased risk of other cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, the potential causal association is uncertain. Methods and results A bidirectional Mendelian randomization…

Journal Article
Awareness, access, and adoption of natriuretic peptides for diagnosis of heart failure
Abstract Aims This survey investigates natriuretic peptide (NP) testing in community and hospital settings, assessing awareness, accessibility, and utilization. Methods and results This investigator‐initiated survey, conceived within the HFA of the European Society of Cardiology, comprised 14…

Journal Article
Therapy gaps for patients with heart failure and reduced kidney function: A prospective cohort study
Abstract Aims Despite emerging evidence for new pharmacotherapies to improve outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) and kidney dysfunction, data on contemporary HF therapy use in this population are lacking. This study evaluated contemporary longitudinal treatment patterns in patients with HF…

Journal Article
A two‐phase approach to identifying HFpEF in heart failure patients: Risk score evaluation and decision tree development
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its complex aetiology and overlapping symptoms with other HF types. The heterogeneity of HFpEF, compounded by frequent comorbidities, complicates diagnosis. This study aimed to…

Predicting right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implant: A novel approach
Abstract Aims Right ventricular (RV) failure (RVF) after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Modern, data‐driven approaches for defining and predicting RVF have been under‐utilized. Methods Two hundred thirty‐two patients were identified…

Clinical profile, short and long‐term outcomes of non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock: A FRENSHOCK sub‐analysis
Abstract Aims Although predominant in routine practice, non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock (NICS) remains underrepresented in past studies, mainly focused on ischaemic cardiogenic shock (CS). This study aims to describe the current NICS picture and define its independent correlates of short‐ and…

Prognostic impact of gait speed, muscle strength and muscle mass in chronic heart failure—A prospective cohort study
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) impairs skeletal muscle mass and function, which contributes to reduced physical performance. We investigated the prognostic impact of gait speed (GS), handgrip strength (HG) and appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI) on cardiovascular outcomes in a prospective…
