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.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in adults and diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, the relationship between both pathologies has not been fully documented and new evidence supports the existence of direct and independent links. In the myocardium, a combination of structural, electrical, and autonomic remodeling may lead to AF. Importantly, patients with AF and DM showed more dramatic alterations than those with AF or DM alone, particularly in mitochondrial respiration and atrial remodeling, which alters conductivity, thrombogenesis, and contractile function. In AF and DM, elevations of cytosolic Ca2⁺ and accumulation of extra cellular matrix (ECM) proteins at the interstitium can promote delayed afterdepolarizations. The DM-associated low-grade inflammation and deposition/infiltration of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) enforce abnormalities in Ca2+ handling and in excitation-contraction coupling, leading to atrial myopathy. This atrial enlargement and the reduction in passive emptying volume and fraction can be key for AF maintenance and re-entry. Moreover, the stored EAT can prolong action of potential durations and progression from paroxysmal to persistent AF. In this way, DM may increase the risk of thrombogenesis as a consequence of increased glycation and oxidation of fibrinogen and plasminogen, impairing plasmin conversion and resistance to fibrinolysis. Additionally, the DM-associated autonomic remodeling may also initiate AF and its re-entry. Finally, further evidence of DM influence on AF development and maintenance are based on the anti-arrhythmogenic effects of certain anti-diabetic drugs like SGLT2 inhibitors. Therefore, AF and DM may share molecular alterations related to Ca2+ mobility, mitochondrial function and ECM composition that induce atrial remodeling and defects in autonomic stimulation and conductivity. Likely, some specific therapies could work against the associated cardiac damage to AF and/or DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether a sustained optimal haemoglobin value in the 3 months after admission for heart failure (HF) decompensation reduces morbidity and mortality during the 12 months after admission for acute HF. PATIENTS AND METHOD Retrospective study of the 1408 patients older than 65 years included in the RICA registry divided into 3 groups: no anaemia (group A), recovered anaemia (group B), and persistent anaemia (group C), according to haemoglobin levels on admission, and 3 months after discharge. Kaplan-Meier curves were constructed, comparing the groups using the log-rank test and a Cox regression model was performed to analyse survival. RESULTS 578 (41.1%), 299 (21.2%) and 531 (37.7%) were included in groups A, B and C, respectively. We recorded a total of 768 deaths and readmissions. There were 23 (4%), 12 (4%) and 49 (9.2%), (p=.001) individuals who died due to HF and 154 (27%), 73 (24%) and 193 (36%) (P<.001) admissions for this pathology, respectively. Patients with persistent anaemia had a higher risk of death (RR 1.29, 95% CI 1.04-1.61, P=.024) or readmission (1.92, 95% CI 1.16-3, 19; P=.012) due to HF. CONCLUSIONS Persistent anaemia in the months after admission for HF increases morbidity and mortality in the subsequent year.

Abstract
History A 61-year-old man with no relevant medical history was admitted to the emergency department with symptoms of congestive heart failure and a 1-week history of chest pain, progressive dyspnea, abdominal swelling, bipedal edema, and anorexia. Laboratory test results, including complete blood count and electrolyte, creatinine, creatine phosphokinase, and troponin T levels were normal. Electrocardiographic findings were unremarkable. Initial chest radiography showed an enlarged heart with bilateral pleural effusion. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed an irregular right atrial mass and moderate to severe pericardial effusion. The patient subsequently underwent computed tomography (CT) of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis followed by cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for further evaluation of the atrial mass. Because of the suspected diagnosis, conventional radiography of the skeleton was performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Vitamin D deficiency and parathyroid hormone (PTH) are associated with an increased cardiovascular risk and arterial stiffness. The aim of our study is to compare the cardiovascular risk in subjects with low vitamin D, attending to the PTH concentration, as well as evaluating the response after administration of vitamin D. PATIENTS AND METHODS Prospective study of patients with a concentration of 25(OH)-vitamin D below 30nmol/l. We evaluated vascular risk parameters as blood pressure, arterial stiffness, lipid profile and glucose metabolism. Patients received vitamin D supplements for 3 months, after which the previous parameters were reassessed. RESULTS A total of 32 patients were included. Those with PTH over 65pg/ml were older, had worse renal function, higher systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure and arterial stiffness. Treatment with vitamin D showed a statistically significant trend to lower blood pressure and pulse wave velocity. CONCLUSIONS The increase in PTH in patients with low vitamin D involves poor control of blood pressure and increased vascular stiffness. Vitamin D replacement shows a tendency to reduce these parameters.
