Trajectories of Kidney Function in Heart Failure Over a 15-Year Follow-Up: Clinical Profiling and Mortality. JACC. HEART FAILURE 2024; 12:849-859. [PMID: 38430086 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchf.2024.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on the long-term trajectory of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with chronic heart failure. OBJECTIVES The authors evaluated eGFR dynamics using the 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation and its prognostic significance in a real-world cohort over a 15-year follow-up. METHODS A prospective observational registry of ambulatory heart failure outpatients was conducted, with regular eGFR assessments at baseline and on a 3-month schedule for ≤15 years. Urgent kidney function assessments were excluded. Locally weighted error sum of squares curves were plotted for predefined subgroups. Multivariable longitudinal Cox regression analyses were conducted to assess associations with all-cause and cardiovascular death. RESULTS A total of 2,672 patients were enrolled consecutively between August 2001 and December 2021. The average age was 66.8 ± 12.6 years, and 69.8% were men. Among 40,970 creatinine measurements, 28,634 were used for eGFR analysis, averaging 10.7 ± 8.5 per patient. Over the study period, a significant decline in eGFR was observed in the entire cohort, with a slope of -1.70 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year (95% CI: -1.75 to -1.66 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year). Older patients, those with diabetes, a preserved ejection fraction, a higher baseline eGFR, elevated hospitalization rates, and those who died during follow-up experienced more pronounced decreases in the eGFR. Moreover, the decrease in kidney function correlated independently with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular death. CONCLUSIONS These findings highlight the sustained decline in eGFR over 15 years in patients with heart failure, with variations based on clinical characteristics, and emphasize the importance of regular eGFR monitoring in this population.

The two different profiles in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and type 2 diabetes mellitus: ischemic and diabetic. Curr Med Res Opin 2024; 40:359-366.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Two profiles of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can be discerned: those with ischemic and those with diabetic cardiomyopathy (DMC). We aim to analyze clinical differences and prognosis between patients of these two profiles. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cohort study analyzes data from the Spanish Heart Failure Registry, a multicenter, prospective registry that enrolled patients admitted for decompensated heart failure and followed them for one year. Three groups were created according to the presence of T2DM and heart disease depending on the etiology (ischemic when coronary artery disease was present, or DMC when no coronary, valvular, or congenital heart disease; no hypertension; nor infiltrative cardiovascular disease observed on an endomyocardial biopsy). The groups and outcomes were compared. RESULTS A total of 466 patients were analyzed. Group 1 (n = 210) included patients with ischemic etiology and T2DM. Group 2 (n = 112) included patients with DMC etiology and T2DM. Group 3 (n = 144), a control group, included patients with ischemic etiology and without T2DM. Group 1 had more hypertension and dyslipidemia; group 2 had more atrial fibrillation (AF) and higher body mass index; group 3 had more chronic kidney disease and were older. In the regression analysis, group 3 had a better prognosis than group 1 (reference group) for cardiovascular mortality and HF readmissions (HR 0.44;95%CI 0.2-1; p = .049). CONCLUSIONS Patients with T2DM and HFpEF, who had the poorest prognosis, were of two different profiles: either ischemic or DMC etiology. The first had a higher burden of cardiovascular disease and inflammation whereas the second had a higher prevalence of obesity and AF. The first had a slightly poorer prognosis than the second, though this finding was not significant.

Prevalence and prognosis of genetically proven familial hypercholesterolemia in subjects with coronary artery disease and reduced ejection fraction. Sci Rep 2023; 13:16942.

Abstract
Few studies have genetically screened variants related to familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and investigated their survival impact in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (EF). Patients with CAD and reduced EF (< 40%) were enrolled. Their genomic DNAs were sequenced for FH-related genes. All-cause and cardiovascular mortality data served as the major outcome. A total of 256 subjects were analyzed and 12 subjects (4.7%) carried FH-related genetic variants. After a median follow-up period of 44 months, 119 of the study subjects died. Cox survival analysis showed that carrying the FH genetic variant did not have a significant impact on the survival of CAD with reduced EF. However, higher estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), better EF and beta blocker use were protective for a lower all-cause mortality. Further larger studies are needed to evaluate the impact of carrying the FH-related genetic variant on survival of CAD with reduced EF.

A Higher Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Is Associated with Better Survival in Subjects with Coronary Artery Disease and Heart Failure with a Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction. Int Heart J 2023; 64:816-822. [PMID: 37704406 DOI: 10.1536/ihj.23-207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
Subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) have myocardial ischemia and associated abnormal left ventricular ejection fraction (EF). Heart failure with mildly reduced EF (41-49%) (HFmrEF) is a new subgroup of EF for heart failure. Although prognostic factors for CAD and HF with reduced EF are well known, fewer studies have been conducted on factors related to the survival of CAD and HFmrEF. We recruited study subjects with significant CAD and HFmrEF from our cardiac catheterization data bank. Data were recorded from traceable chart records from our hospital. All-cause and cardiovascular mortality were recorded until December 2019 and served as a follow-up outcome. A total of 348 subjects with CAD and HFmrEF were analyzed. The median duration of follow-up was 37 months. Seventy-eight subjects died during the follow-up period and 30 of them were due to cardiovascular causes. In univariate analyses, those who died were of older ages, and with a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (47 ± 30 versus 71 ± 30 mL/minute/1.73 m2, P < 0.001), and lower usage of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and beta blockers. In the Cox survival regression analysis, a higher eGFR (hazard ratio 0.980, P < 0.001) was protective, while older age and a higher serum total cholesterol (hazard ratio 1.006, P = 0.048) were related to all-cause mortality for CAD with HFmrEF. Furthermore, a higher eGFR was also associated with less cardiovascular mortality. In conclusion, for subjects with CAD and HFmrEF, a higher eGFR was protective and associated with a lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.
