Nagai M, Dote K, Förster CY. Denervation or stimulation? Role of sympatho-vagal imbalance in HFpEF with hypertension. Hypertens Res 2023; 46:1727-1737. [PMID: 37045971 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-023-01272-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023]
Abstract
Heart failure (HF) in the elderly is an increasingly large and complex problem in modern society. Notably, the cause of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is multifactorial and its pathophysiology is not fully understood. Among these, hypertension has emerged as a pivotal factor in the pathophysiology and therapeutic targets of HFpEF. Neuronal elements distributed throughout the cardiac autonomic nervous system, from the level of the central autonomic network including the insular cortex to the intrinsic cardiac nervous system, regulate the human cardiovascular system. Specifically, increased sympathetic nervous system activity due to sympatho-vagal imbalance is suggested to be associated the relationship between hypertension and HFpEF. While several new pharmacological therapies, such as sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, have been shown to be effective in HFpEF, neuromodulatory therapies of renal denervation and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) have received recent attention. The current review explores the pathophysiology of the brain-heart axis that underlies the relationship between hypertension and HFpEF and the rationale for therapeutic neuromodulation of HFpEF by non-invasive transcutaneous VNS.

Canagliflozin independently reduced plasma volume from conventional diuretics in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic heart failure: a subanalysis of the CANDLE trial. Hypertens Res 2023; 46:495-506. [PMID: 36380202 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-022-01085-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) reduce the risk of heart failure progression and mortality rates. Moreover, osmotic diuresis induced by SGLT2 inhibition may result in an improved heart failure prognosis. Independent of conventional diuretics in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic heart failure, especially in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), it is unclear whether SGLT2i chronically reduces estimated plasma volume (ePV). As a subanalysis of the CANDLE trial, which assessed the effect of canagliflozin on N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), we examined the change (%) in ePV over 24 weeks of treatment based on the baseline level associated with diuretic usage. In the CANDLE trial, nearly all patients were clinically stable (NYHA class I-II), with approximately 70% of participants presenting a baseline phenotype of HFpEF. A total of 99 (42.5%) patients were taking diuretics (mostly furosemide) at baseline, while 134 (57.5%) were not. Relative to glimepiride, canagliflozin significantly reduced ePV without worsening renal function in patients in both groups: -4.00% vs. 1.46% (p = 0.020) for the diuretic group and -6.14% vs. 1.28% (p < 0.001) for the nondiuretic group. Furthermore, canagliflozin significantly reduced serum uric acid without causing major electrolyte abnormalities in patients in both subgroups. The long-term beneficial effect of SGLT2i on intravascular congestion could be independent of conventional diuretic therapy without worsening renal function in patients with T2D and HF (HFpEF predominantly). In addition, the beneficial effects of canagliflozin are accompanied by improved hyperuricemia without causing major electrolyte abnormalities.

Abstract
Asia is a large continent and there is significant diversity between countries and regions. Over the last 30 years, absolute blood pressure (BP) levels in Asia have increased to a greater extent than those in other regions. In diverse Asia‐Pacific populations, for choosing an Asia‐specific approach to hypertension management is important to prevent target organ damage and cardiovascular diseases. In this consensus document of HOPE Asia Network, we introduce seven action approaches for management of hypertension in Asia.
