Abstract
Improving congestion with diuretic therapy is crucial in the treatment of heart failure (HF). However, despite the use of loop diuretics, diuresis may be inadequate and congestion persists, which is known as diuretic resistance. Diuretic resistance and residual congestion are associated with a higher risk of rehospitalization and mortality. Causes of diuretic resistance in HF include diuretic pharmacokinetic changes, renal hemodynamic perturbations, neurohumoral activations, renal tubular remodeling, and use of nephrotoxic drugs as well as patient comorbidities. Combination diuretic therapy (CDT) has been advocated for the treatment of diuretic resistance. Thiazides, acetazolamides, tolvaptan, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors are among the candidates, but none of these treatments has yet demonstrated significant diuretic efficacy or improved prognosis. At present, it is essential to identify and treat the causes of diuretic resistance in individual patients and to use CDT based on a better understanding of the characteristics of each drug to achieve adequate diuresis. Further research is needed to effectively assess and manage diuretic resistance and ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a clinical complex disease and a worldwide issue due to its inconsistent diagnosis and poor prognosis. The cornerstone of pathophysiology of AHF is systemic venous congestion, which is led by the underlying structural and functional cardiac condition. Systemic venous congestion is a major target for AHF management because it causes symptoms and organs dysfunction, and is associated with poor prognosis. The mainstay of decongestive therapy is diuresis with intravenous loop diuretics combined with other diuretics including thiazides when necessary, and non-invasive ventilation. The presence of unresolved congestion at discharge can lead heart failure related rehospitalization, and careful follow-up is required especially during "vulnerable phase", several months after discharge. The updated recommendation for management of AHF has been provided by latest guidelines from European Society of Cardiology and American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology/Heart Failure Society of America. Several large studies have currently demonstrated the benefits of guideline-directed oral medical therapies, and trials are ongoing on medication such as selective sodium-glucose transport proteins 2 inhibitors and protocols for congestive therapy. This review aimed to summarize the latest insights in AHF, based primarily on the most recent guidelines and large randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) represents the most frequent cause of unplanned hospital admission in patients older than 65 years. Symptoms and clinical signs of AHF (e.g. dyspnoea, orthopnoea, oedema, jugular vein distension, and variation of body weight) are mostly related to systemic venous congestion secondary to various mechanisms including extracellular fluids, increased ventricular filling pressures, and/or auto-transfusion of blood from the splanchnic into the pulmonary circulation. Thus, the initial management of AHF patients should be mostly based on decongestive therapies on admission followed, before discharge, by rapid implementation of guideline-directed oral medical therapies for heart failure. The therapeutic management of AHF requires the identification and rapid diagnosis of the disease, the diagnosis of the cause (or triggering factor), the evaluation of severity, the presence of comorbidities, and, finally, the initiation of a rapid treatment. The most recent guidelines from ESC and ACC/AHA/HFSA have provided updated recommendations on AHF management. Recommended pharmacological treatment for AHF includes diuretic therapy aiming to relieve congestion and achieve optimal fluid status, early and rapid initiation of oral therapies before discharge combined with a close follow-up. Non-pharmacological AHF management requires risk stratification in the emergency department and non-invasive ventilation in case of respiratory failure. Vasodilators should be considered as initial therapy in AHF precipitated by hypertension. On the background of recent large randomized clinical trials and international guidelines, this state-of-the-art review describes current pharmacological treatments and potential directions for future research in AHF.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the optimal cut-off value of the early drop in systolic blood pressure (SBP) for worsening renal function (WRF) in hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) and analyze predictors of WRF and the early drop in SBP at that threshold. We retrospectively enrolled 396 patients with acute decompensated HF. The early drop in SBP was defined as the difference between baseline and SBP measured 24 h after hospitalization. We performed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to determine the optimal cut-off value of the early drop in SBP for WRF and evaluated the effect of the early drop in SBP on in-hospital mortality by multivariate logistic regression analyses. The mean age of the patients was 73.4 ± 14.7 years, and 61.2% were men. A 14.0% drop in SBP was identified as the optimal cut-off value for WRF from the ROC curve analysis. An early drop in SBP ≥ 14.0% was associated with WRF in multivariate logistic regression analysis (odds ratio 7.84; 95% confidence interval 4.06-15.14; P < 0.0001). The dose of intravenous furosemide within 24 h of admission was one of the predictors of the early drop in SBP ≥ 14.0%, while no early drop in SBP was a predictor of in-hospital mortality in multivariate logistic regression models. In conclusion, the optimal cut-off value for WRF in patients with HF was a 14.0% drop in SBP within 24 h of admission. The early drop in SBP ≥ 14.0% was one of the predictors of WRF in patients with HF. However, no early drop in SBP was associated with in-hospital mortality. This study was registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network in Japan (UMIN000035989).

Abstract
Background Tolvaptan (TLV) is reported to improve diuretic effects in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) when furosemide (FUR) is not sufficiently effective. However, it is not clear whether TLV addition is effective for advanced CKD patients with heart failure. Methods An open-label, parallel-group randomized trial was performed. The subjects were 33 patients with CKD stage G3–G5 who had fluid overload despite taking 20–100 mg/day FUR. They were divided into two groups: a group administered 15 mg/day TLV plus their original FUR dose for 7 days (TLV group), and a group administered 120–200 mg/day FUR (i.e., 100 mg/day over their previous dose) for 7 days (FUR group). Results The mean change in urine volume was significantly higher in the TLV group compared to the FUR group (637 ml vs 119 ml; p < 0.05). The difference was greater when the urine osmolality before treatment was high. Serum creatinine was increased only in the FUR group. The incidence of worsening renal function (WRF) was significantly lower in the TLV group (18.8% vs 58.8%; p < 0.05). Serum sodium decreased significantly in the FUR group, but did not change in the TLV group. Conclusions In patients with advanced CKD with fluid overload, the addition of TLV achieved a significantly higher urine volume with less adverse effects on renal function compared with increasing the dose of FUR. The efficacy and safety of TLV were higher in patients who had higher urine osmolality and lower serum sodium before treatment. Clinical trial registration UMIN000014763.

Abstract
BACKGROUND OPC-61815, a prodrug of tolvaptan, is an injectable aquaretic drug. This study evaluated the tolerability of OPC-61815 in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) who had difficulty with, or were incapable of, oral intake in a multicenter, uncontrolled, open-label Phase III study.Methods and Results:Forty-five patients were enrolled at 30 Japanese sites. OPC-61815 infusion was administered once daily; the 8 mg initial dose could be increased to 16 mg if the dose escalation criteria were met. Patients were treated for up to 5 days. Thirty-eight patients maintained the 8-mg dose and 7 had a dose increase to 16 mg; 41 completed the trial (34 completed early). One patient had mild hypernatremia. No significant safety concerns were observed with OPC-61815 administration at a starting dose of 8 mg and with dose escalation in accordance with the protocol-specified criteria. Treatment resulted in weight decrease (-3.01 kg); improvement or disappearance rates for other CHF symptoms (including edema, dyspnea, orthopnea, pulmonary congestion, and rales) indicated that treatment was effective. Urine excretion was increased 0-1 h after OPC-61815 administration and reached a maximum level at 1-2 h. CONCLUSIONS The tolerability of once daily (up to 5 days) intravenous OPC-61815 (8 mg or 16 mg) was confirmed in patients with CHF who had difficulty with, or were incapable of, oral intake.

Abstract
Type-1 cardiorenal syndrome refers to acute kidney injury induced by acute worsening cardiac function. Worsening renal function is a strong and independent predictive factor for poor prognosis. Currently, several problems of the type-1 cardiorenal syndrome have not been fully elucidated. The pathogenesis mechanism of renal dysfunction is unclear. Besides, the diagnostic efficiency, sensitivity, and specificity of the existing biomarkers are doubtful. Furthermore, the renal safety of the therapeutic strategies for acute heart failure (AHF) is still ambiguous. Based on these issues, we systematically summarized and depicted the research actualities and predicaments of the pathogenesis, diagnostic markers, and therapeutic strategies of worsening renal function in type-1 cardiorenal syndrome.

Abstract
Within no definite diuretic protocol for acute heart failure (AHF) patients and its variation in regional clinical guidelines, the latest national guidelines in Japan commends use of tolvaptan in diuretic-resistant patients. This study aimed to examine trends in tolvaptan usage and associated outcomes of AHF patients requiring hospitalization. Between April, 2018 and October, 2019, 1343 consecutive AHF patients (median 78 [69-85] year-old) were enrolled in a prospective, multicenter registry in Japan. Trends over time in tolvaptan usage, along with the severity of heart failure status based on the Get With The Guideline-Heart Failure [GWTG-HF] risk score, and in-hospital outcomes were investigated. During the study period, tolvaptan usage has increased from 13.0 to 28.7% over time (p for trend = 0.07), and 49.4% started tolvaptan within 3 days after admission. The GWTG-HF risk score in the tolvaptan group has significantly decreased over time, while that in the non-tolvaptan group has unchanged. There were no differences in the in-hospital mortality rate between the patients with and without tolvaptan (6.7% vs. 5.8%). After revision of the Japanese clinical practice guidelines for AHF in March 2018, tolvaptan usage for AHF patients has steadily increased. However, in-hospital outcomes including mortality do not seem to be affected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tolvaptan is an orally administered aquaretic drug indicated for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) to remove excess fluid. OPC-61815, a prodrug of tolvaptan with improved water solubility, is considered suitable for intravenous (IV) administration. This Phase II study investigated the OPC-61815 dose that would result in an exposure equivalent to tolvaptan 15 mg.Methods and Results:We conducted a multicenter, randomized study in Japanese patients aged 20-85 years with CHF and volume overload despite treatment with diuretics other than vasopressin antagonists. Patients received IV OPC-61815 2 mg (n=13), 4 mg (n=12), 8 mg (n=12), 16 mg (n=11), or oral tolvaptan 15 mg (n=12). The primary endpoint was tolvaptan exposure on treatment Day 1; efficacy and safety were also assessed. Tolvaptan exposure increased in a dose-dependent manner following a single IV administration of OPC-61815; the exposure following an IV dose of OPC-61815 16 mg was similar to that of a tolvaptan 15-mg tablet, with no marked differences in safety or tolerability. OPC-61815 increased urine volume from baseline, resulting in decreased body weight and improved lower limb edema. No notable safety concerns were observed. CONCLUSIONS In this first study of OPC-61815 in patients with CHF, exposure following a single IV administration of OPC-61815 16 mg was comparable with a single oral administration of tolvaptan 15 mg, with no safety concerns.

Characterization of tolvaptan response and its impact on the outcome for patients with heart failure. J Cardiol 2021; 78:285-293. [PMID: 34039465 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2021.04.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2021] [Revised: 04/09/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional diuretic therapy such as loop diuretics is a cornerstone of the treatment for heart failure (HF). Diuretic response is an important factor in determining resistance to HF therapy and has been shown to be associated with subsequent clinical outcome. Tolvaptan (TVP), a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, has a favorable profile in terms of rapid fluid removal and less aggravation of renal function. We hypothesized that the response to TVP might be associated with the subsequent clinical outcome. METHOD In this single-center retrospective study, 148 consecutive HF patients who were administered TVP from 2014 through 2018 [age 79 (69-86) years, male 89 (60%)] were included. Ninety-six patients were divided into TVP responder [N = 39 (41%)] and non-responder groups based on the cut-off value of gained urine output (+ 93 ml/mg TVP /day) on the day after TVP was introduced. RESULTS Early TVP introduction (p = 0.012) and lower dose of loop diuretics (p = 0.043) were predictors of TVP responder. For 2 years after discharge, TVP responders showed more favorable outcomes regarding the primary endpoint defined as the composite of all-cause death and HF readmission (p = 0.034, log-rank test) and HF readmission (p = 0.005). A multivariable Cox model analysis revealed that TVP responder was an independent predictor of the primary endpoint (hazard ratio 0.48, p = 0.041). TVP responders had a lower number of HF readmissions over a 1-year period (p = 0.002). TVP response was independently associated with the number of HF readmissions (p = 0.015). The proportion of patients with an extended period between discharge and HF readmission after TVP administration was higher in responders than non-responders (67% vs. 23%, p = 0.006). These associations of TVP response and post-discharge outcomes were more evident in patients who continued TVP after discharge. CONCLUSION TVP response can be indicative of subsequent clinical outcomes and may be informative when considering advanced care planning.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a highly frequent disorder with considerable morbidity, hospitalization, and mortality; thus, it invariably places pressure on clinical and public health systems in the modern world. There have been notable advances in the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of HF, and newly developed agents and devices have been widely adopted in clinical practice. Here, this review first summarizes the current emerging therapeutic agents, including pharmacotherapy, device-based therapy, and the treatment of some common comorbidities, to improve the prognosis of HF patients. Then, we discuss and point out the commonalities and areas for improvement in current clinical studies of HF. Finally, we highlight the gaps in HF research. We are looking forward to a bright future with reduced morbidity and mortality from HF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diuretic resistance portends a poor prognosis in acute heart failure, especially in advanced stages. Early identification of a poor response to diuretics may help to improve treatment and outcomes. Spot natriuresis (UNa+) at 2 h from the start of intravenous furosemide has been proposed as an early indicator of diuretic response. Our paper aimed to determine the role of early natriuresis in patients hospitalized with advanced chronic heart failure (ACHF) and high risk of diuretic resistance. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a sub-analysis of the DRAIN trial, a randomized clinical trial on 80 patients with acute decompensation of ACHF (NYHA IV, EF ≤ 30%) with low systolic blood pressure (≤ 110 mmHg) and dilutional hyponatremia (sodium ≤ 135 mMol/L) at admission. Patients were divided into two groups according to spot urinary sodium excretion (high: UNa+ > 50 or low: ≤ 50 mEq/L) at 2 h from furosemide administration. Twenty-eight patients (35%) showed a low natriuretic response. As compared to the other patients, this group showed lower daily urinary output (2275 ± 790 vs 3849 ± 2034 mL, p < 0.001), lower body weight reduction after 48 h (1.55 ± - 1.66 vs - 3.55 ± - 2.93 kg, p < 0.001), higher incidence of worsening renal function (32% vs 10%, p 0.02) and increasing rather than reducing NT-proBNP at 72 h (p 0.02). CONCLUSIONS In patients with ACHF and dilutional hyponatremia, low natriuresis after furosemide is an early marker of poor diuretic response and correlates with higher NT-proBNP and higher incidence of worsening renal function at 72 h.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately half of people with heart failure have chronic kidney disease (CKD). Pharmacological interventions for heart failure in people with CKD have the potential to reduce death (any cause) or hospitalisations for decompensated heart failure. However, these interventions are of uncertain benefit and may increase the risk of harm, such as hypotension and electrolyte abnormalities, in those with CKD. OBJECTIVES This review aims to look at the benefits and harms of pharmacological interventions for HF (i.e., antihypertensive agents, inotropes, and agents that may improve the heart performance indirectly) in people with HF and CKD. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Kidney and Transplant Register of Studies through 12 September 2019 in consultation with an Information Specialist and using search terms relevant to this review. Studies in the Register are identified through searches of CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE, conference proceedings, the International Clinical Trials Register (ICTRP) Search Portal and ClinicalTrials.gov. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials of any pharmacological intervention for acute or chronic heart failure, among people of any age with chronic kidney disease of at least three months duration. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently screened the records to identify eligible studies and extracted data on the following dichotomous outcomes: death, hospitalisations, worsening heart failure, worsening kidney function, hyperkalaemia, and hypotension. We used random effects meta-analysis to estimate treatment effects, which we expressed as a risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). We assessed the risk of bias using the Cochrane tool. We applied the GRADE methodology to rate the certainty of evidence. MAIN RESULTS One hundred and twelve studies met our selection criteria: 15 were studies of adults with CKD; 16 studies were conducted in the general population but provided subgroup data for people with CKD; and 81 studies included individuals with CKD, however, data for this subgroup were not provided. The risk of bias in all 112 studies was frequently high or unclear. Of the 31 studies (23,762 participants) with data on CKD patients, follow-up ranged from three months to five years, and study size ranged from 16 to 2916 participants. In total, 26 studies (19,612 participants) reported disaggregated and extractable data on at least one outcome of interest for our review and were included in our meta-analyses. In acute heart failure, the effects of adenosine A1-receptor antagonists, dopamine, nesiritide, or serelaxin on death, hospitalisations, worsening heart failure or kidney function, hyperkalaemia, hypotension or quality of life were uncertain due to sparse data or were not reported. In chronic heart failure, the effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) (4 studies, 5003 participants: RR 0.85, 95% CI 0.70 to 1.02; I2 = 78%; low certainty evidence), aldosterone antagonists (2 studies, 34 participants: RR 0.61 95% CI 0.06 to 6.59; very low certainty evidence), and vasopressin receptor antagonists (RR 1.26, 95% CI 0.55 to 2.89; 2 studies, 1840 participants; low certainty evidence) on death (any cause) were uncertain. Treatment with beta-blockers may reduce the risk of death (any cause) (4 studies, 3136 participants: RR 0.69, 95% CI 0.60 to 0.79; I2 = 0%; moderate certainty evidence). Treatment with ACEi or ARB (2 studies, 1368 participants: RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.43 to 1.90; I2 = 97%; very low certainty evidence) had uncertain effects on hospitalisation for heart failure, as treatment estimates were consistent with either benefit or harm. Treatment with beta-blockers may decrease hospitalisation for heart failure (3 studies, 2287 participants: RR 0.67, 95% CI 0.43 to 1.05; I2 = 87%; low certainty evidence). Aldosterone antagonists may increase the risk of hyperkalaemia compared to placebo or no treatment (3 studies, 826 participants: RR 2.91, 95% CI 2.03 to 4.17; I2 = 0%; low certainty evidence). Renin inhibitors had uncertain risks of hyperkalaemia (2 studies, 142 participants: RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.49 to 1.49; I2 = 0%; very low certainty). We were unable to estimate whether treatment with sinus node inhibitors affects the risk of hyperkalaemia, as there were few studies and meta-analysis was not possible. Hyperkalaemia was not reported for the CKD subgroup in studies investigating other therapies. The effects of ACEi or ARB, or aldosterone antagonists on worsening heart failure or kidney function, hypotension, or quality of life were uncertain due to sparse data or were not reported. Effects of anti-arrhythmic agents, digoxin, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, renin inhibitors, sinus node inhibitors, vasodilators, and vasopressin receptor antagonists were very uncertain due to the paucity of studies. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The effects of pharmacological interventions for heart failure in people with CKD are uncertain and there is insufficient evidence to inform clinical practice. Study data for treatment outcomes in patients with heart failure and CKD are sparse despite the potential impact of kidney impairment on the benefits and harms of treatment. Future research aimed at analysing existing data in general population HF studies to explore the effect in subgroups of patients with CKD, considering stage of disease, may yield valuable insights for the management of people with HF and CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oral vasopressin-2 receptor antagonist, tolvaptan, causes aquaresis and improves symptoms in patients with congestive heart failure. However, few studies have explored the effect of tolvaptan in acute heart failure (AHF) patients ≥90 years old. METHODS This study enrolled 106 AHF patients treated with tolvaptan added to standard therapy. The subjects were divided into 2 groups: ≥90-year-old patients (over-90 group, mean 92 ± 2 years, n = 45) and <90-year-old patients (under-90 group, mean 76 ± 11 years, n = 61). Patients' characteristics were assessed, and efficacy and safety were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS The over-90 group had a lower proportion of male patients, lower body weight, and higher ejection fraction. The under-90 group had significantly higher prevalence of ischemic heart disease and diabetes mellitus. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in total urine volume at 24 and 48 hours (1934 ± 983 mL vs 1816 ± 1028 mL, P = 0.58 and 3806 ± 1444 mL vs 4078 ± 1851 mL, P=0.47, respectively), the mean change in body weight (-3.0 ± 2.7 kg vs -2.6 ± 2.6 kg, P = 0.50), improvement of congestive symptoms, changes in serum sodium and creatinine levels, the incidences of hypernatremia (n = 0, 0% vs n = 1, 1.6%, P = 0.63), and worsening renal function (n = 9, 20% vs n = 17, 28%, P = 0.48). CONCLUSION The efficacy and safety of tolvaptan in AHF patients aged more than 90 years were comparable to those of <90 years old. Tolvaptan provides a complementary therapeutic option for AHF patients aged more than 90 years.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: There is no known therapy with proven efficacy for improving clinical outcomes in elderly patients with heart failure (HF) and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of tolvaptan (TLV) in elderly HFpEF patients. Methods: This retrospective observational study involved 100 consecutive elderly HFpEF patients hospitalized at the Nagoya Heart Center, Japan. Inclusion criteria were: (1) patients aged ≥75 years; (2) first hospitalization secondary to HF; (3) received medical therapy for HF, without invasive treatment; and (4) clinical follow-up for >6 months after discharge. The primary endpoint was rehospitalization due to worsening HF, and the secondary endpoint was worsening renal function (WRF) during hospitalization and at 6 months after discharge. Sixty background-matched HFpEF patients were divided into 2 groups: with TLV therapy (TLV (+), n = 29) and without TLV therapy (TLV (–), n = 31). In the TLV (+) group, TLV therapy was continued after discharge. Clinical outcomes of these patients were evaluated. Results: Bed rest period and length of hospital stay were significantly shorter in the TLV (+) group than in the TLV (−) group. The dose of loop diuretics, mean serum creatinine levels, and incidence of WRF development were significantly lower in the TLV (+) group. Incidence of rehospitalization was also significantly lower in the TLV (+) group (log-rank test; p = 0.018). The multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that TLV therapy reduces the incidence of rehospitalization in elderly patients with HFpEF. Conclusions: TLV therapy reduced the bed rest period, length of hospital stay, and rate of rehospitalization without WRF in elderly HFpEF patients, suggesting that TLV could represent an effective therapy for this group of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diuretic resistance is a common issue in patients with acute decompensation of advanced chronic heart failure (ACHF). The aim of this trial was to compare boluses and continuous infusion of furosemide in a selected population of patients with ACHF and high risk for diuretic resistance. METHODS In this single-centre, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized trial, we enrolled 80 patients admitted for acute decompensation of ACHF (NYHA IV, EF ≤ 30%) with criteria of high risk for diuretic resistance (SBP ≤ 110 mmHg, wet score ≥ 12/18, and sodium ≤ 135 mMol/L). Patients were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive furosemide by bolus every 12 h or by continuous infusion. Diuretic treatment and dummy treatment were prepared by a nurse unassigned to patients' care. The study treatment was continued for up to 72 h. Coprimary endpoints were total urinary output and freedom from congestion at 72 h. RESULTS 80 patients were enrolled with 40 patients in each treatment arm. Mean daily furosemide was 216 mg in continuous-infusion arm and 195 mg in the bolus intermittent arm. Freedom from congestion (defined as jugular venous pressure of < 8 cm, with no orthopnea and with trace peripheral edema or no edema) occurred more in the continuous infusion than in the bolus arm (48% vs. 25%, p = 0.04), while total urinary output after 72 h was 8612 ± 2984 ml in the bolus arm and 10,020 ± 3032 ml in the continuous arm (p = 0.04). Treatment failure occurred less in the continuous-infusion group (15% vs. 38%, p = 0.02), while there was no significant difference between groups in the incidence of worsening of renal function. CONCLUSION Among patients with acute decompensation of ACHF and high risk of diuretic resistance, continuous infusion of intravenous furosemide was associated with better decongestion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte abnormality found in hospitalized patients with acute heart failure (AHF) and is related to poor prognosis. This study sought to evaluate: (1) the different prognostic impact of dilutional versus depletional hyponatremia, evaluating short- and long-term outcome; (2) the relationship between both types of hyponatremia and intravenous furosemide dose, renal function changes, and persistent congestion at discharge. METHODS This retrospective single-center study included 233 consecutive patients with a primary diagnosis of AHF. Hyponatremia was defined as serum sodium < 135 mEq/L, which could be either dilutional (hematocrit < 35%) or depletional (hematocrit ≥35%). Persistent congestion was defined as a congestion score ≥2 at discharge. Patients were followed 180 days for occurrence of death or rehospitalization for AHF. RESULTS Hyponatremia was present in 68/233 patients with 27 cases classified as dilutional hyponatremia versus 41 as depletional. The proportion of patients with persistent congestion was higher in the dilutional hyponatremia group, but similar in the depletional hyponatremia group (52 vs. 81 vs. 58%; p = 0.02). After adjustment for important baseline characteristics, dilutional hyponatremia was significantly associated with the risk of death or rehospitalization for AHF at 60 days (HR 2.17 [1.08-4.37]; p = 0.03) and 180 days (HR 1.88 [1.10-3.21]; p = 0.02). In contrast, depletional hyponatremia was only significantly associated with the same endpoint at 180 days (HR 1.64 [1.05-2.57]; p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Low hematocrit levels in AHF patients with hyponatremia characterize a population that is more difficult to decongest and has poor clinical outcome. In contrast, patients with hyponatremia but normal hematocrit are better decongested and have better short-term outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Little is known about treatments provided by advanced life support (ALS) ambulance teams to patients with acute heart failure (AHF) during the prehospital phase, and their influence on short-term outcome. We evaluated the effect of prehospital care in consecutive patients diagnosed with AHF in Spanish emergency departments (EDs). METHODS We selected patients from the EAHFE registry arriving at the ED by ALS ambulances with available follow-up data. We recorded specific prehospital ALS treatments (supplemental oxygen, diuretics, nitroglycerin, non-invasive ventilation) and patients were grouped according to whether they received low- (LIPHT; 0/1 treatments) or high-intensity prehospital therapy (HIPHT; > 1 treatment) for AHF. We also recorded 46 covariates. The primary endpoint was all-cause 7-day mortality, and secondary endpoints were prolonged hospitalisation (> 10 days) and in-hospital and 30-day mortality. Unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios were calculated to compare the groups. RESULTS We included 1493 patients [mean age 80.7 (10) years; women 54.8%]. Prehospital treatment included supplemental oxygen in 71.2%, diuretics in 27.9%, nitroglycerin in 13.5%, and non-invasive ventilation in 5.3%. The LIPHT group included 1041 patients (70.0%) with an unadjusted OR for 7-day mortality of 1.770 (95% CI 1.115-2.811; p = 0.016), and 1.939 (95% CI 1.114-3.287, p = 0.014) after adjustment for 16 discordant covariables. The adjusted ORs for all secondary endpoints were always > 1 in the LIPHT group, but none reached statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS Patients finally diagnosed with AHF at then ED that have received LIPHT by the ALS ambulance teams have a poorer short-term outcome, especially during the first 7 days.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary arteries perfuse cardiac myocytes during diastole. We hypothesized that marked lowering of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) is associated with increased risk of subclinical myocardial injury (SC-MI). METHODS This analysis included 6107 participants without history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) from the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. SC-MI was determined by a validated electrocardiogram-based scoring system. Logistic regression was used to examine the cross-sectional association between DBP (< 70, 70-80 mmHg (reference group), and > 80 mmHg; and per each 10 mmHg decrease, separately) with SC-MI across levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP) (< 120, 120-139, or > 140 mmHg). RESULTS In a multivariable model, DBP < 70 mmHg was associated with a higher risk of SC-MI [OR (95% CI) 1.40 (1.02, 1.94)] in participants with SBP > 140 mmHg. This association was consistent in subgroups stratified by age, race, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and smoking, but was stronger in women than in men [OR (95% CI) 1.58 (1.06, 2.37) vs. 1.10 (0.62, 1.94), respectively; interaction p value = 0.006]. Also, among participants with SBP > 140 mmHg, every 10 mmHg decrease in DBP was associated with a 12% increased odds of SC-MI [OR (95% CI) 1.12 (1.01, 1.23)]. No significant associations between DBP and SC-MI were observed in those with SBP < 120 mmHg or 120-139 mmHg, or between DBP > 80 mmHg and SC-MI in any of SBP levels. CONCLUSIONS Low DBP < 70 mmHg in those with SBP > 140 mmHg carries higher risk of SC-MI, especially in women. Further research is needed to understand the therapeutic implications of these findings.

Am J Nephrol 2017; 46:417-426.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tolvaptan increases free water clearance (aquaresis) and thereby improves hyponatremia. Although hyponatremia on admission is common in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), little is known regarding the response to tolvaptan in those who also have chronic kidney disease (CKD) with or without hyponatremia. The aim of this subanalysis was to investigate the differences in treatment response between normo- and hyponatremia patients with CHF and CKD stages G3b-5. METHODS The Kanagawa Aquaresis Investigators Trial of Tolvaptan on HF Patients with Renal Impairment (K-STAR) was a multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled prospective clinical trial that included 81 Japanese patients with CHF and residual signs of congestion despite oral furosemide treatment (≥40 mg/day). All patients were randomly assigned to 7-day treatment with either ≤15 mg/day of new add-on tolvaptan or ≤40 mg/day of increased furosemide. A subanalysis was conducted for 73 patients, who were classified into 2 groups according to their assigned treatment, then further stratified into 2 subgroups according to their serum sodium concentration [Na+]. The differences between the urine and serum parameters from day 1 to 3 were compared between the groups and between the subgroups in each group. RESULTS The change (Δ) in urine volume (ΔUV) and Δurine osmolality were greater in the tolvaptan group than in the furosemide group; however, ΔUV and Δurine osmolality did not show significant differences between the normonatremia subgroup and the hyponatremia subgroup in each group. In addition, Δserum [Na+] was greater in the tolvaptan group, although the change was not clinically significant. In contrast, Δserum [Na+] did not show significant differences between the normo- and hyponatremia subgroups in each group. CONCLUSION Tolvaptan added to furosemide resulted in a greater diuretic effect than increased furosemide, even in normonatremia patients with CHF complicated by CKD stages G3b-5 in the very early treatment phase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interaction between chronic medications on admission and the association between serum potassium level and outcome in patients with acute heart failure (AHF) are unknown. METHODS Observational intercontinental study of patients admitted with AHF. 15954 patients were included from 12 cohorts in 4 continents. Main outcome was 90-day mortality. Clinical presentation (medication use, hemodynamics, comorbidities), demographic, echocardiographic, and biochemical data on admission were recorded prospectively in each cohort, with prospective adjudication of outcomes. RESULTS Positive and negative linear relationships between 90-day mortality and sK+ above 4.5 mmol/L (hyperkalemia) and below 3.5 mmol/L (hypo-kalemia) were observed. Hazard ratio for death was 1.46 [1.34-1.58] for hyperkalemia and 1.22 [1.06-1.40] for hypokalemia. In a fully adjusted model, only hyperkalemia remained associated with mortality (HR 1.03 [1.02-1.04] for each 0.1 mmol/l change of sK+ above 4.5 mmol/L). Interaction tests revealed that the association between hyperkalemia and outcome was significantly affected by chronic medications. The association between hyperkalemia and mortality was absent for patients treated with beta blockers and in those with preserved renal function. CONCLUSIONS In patients with AHF, sK+ > 4.5 mmol/L appears to be associated with 90-day mortality. B-blockers have potentially a protective effect in the setting of hyperkalemia.

Prognostic importance of sodium level trajectory in acute heart failure. Heart Vessels 2017; 32:1498-1505.

Abstract
Low sodium levels are strongly associated with poor prognosis in acute heart failure (AHF); however, the prognostic impact of the sodium level trajectory overtime has not been determined. A secondary analysis of the AQUAMARINE study in which patients with AHF and renal impairment were randomized to receive either tolvaptan or conventional treatment was performed. Sodium levels were evaluated at the baseline and at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h. We defined 'sodium dipping' as sodium level falling below the baseline level at any time point. The primary endpoint was the combined event of all-cause death and heart failure rehospitalization during follow-up. The analysis included 184 patients with a median follow-up of 21.1 months. Sodium levels more steeply increased during the 48 h in patients without events as compared to sodium levels in patients with events (P = 0.018 in linear-mixed effect model). The sodium dipping group (n = 100; 54.3%) demonstrated significantly less urine output, less body weight reduction, and poorer diuretic response within 48 h compared to the non-dipping group. The sodium dipping group was also significantly associated with a low combined-event-free survival after adjustment for other prognostic factors (HR 1.97; 95% CI 1.06-3.38; P = 0.033). The trajectory of sodium levels during the acute phase is associated with the prognosis of patients with AHF independently of the baseline sodium level.
