Abstract
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a frequent cause of hospitalization around the world and is associated with high in-hospital and post-discharge morbidity and mortality. This review summarizes data on diagnosis and management of AHF from the emergency department to the intensive care unit. While more evidence is needed to guide risk stratification and care of patients with AHF, hospitalization is a key opportunity to optimize evidence-based medical therapy for heart failure. Close linkage to outpatient care is essential to improve post-hospitalization outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of induction immunosuppression for heart transplantation (HT) is debated given the uncertain benefit and potential risks of infection and malignancy. METHODS This is a retrospective single-center analysis of 475 consecutive HT recipients from 2003 to 2020 grouped by use of induction with basiliximab group (BG) and the no basiliximab group (NBG). Subgroup analysis by era compared pre-2016 standard-basiliximab (BX) induction and 2016-2020 with selective-BX use as part of a calcineurin-inhibitor-sparing regimen. RESULTS When adjusted for confounders (sex, age, PRA, eGFR), the BG was less likely to have acute cellular rejection (ACR) (OR.42, p < .001), but had more antibody mediated rejection (AMR) (OR 11.7, p < .001) and more cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) (OR 3.8, p = .04). There was no difference between BG and NBG in the incidence of malignancies or infections. When stratified by era (pre-2016 vs. 2016-2020), ACR remained less common in the BG than the NBG (36% vs. 50%, p = .045) groups, while AMR remained more common (9.7 vs. 0% p = .005). There was no significant difference in conditional survival comparing pre-and post-2016 NBG (HR 2.20 (95% CI.75-6.43); however, both pre-2016 BG and post-2016 BG have significantly higher mortality (HR 2.37 [95% CI 1.02-5.50) and HR 2.69 (95% CI 1.08-6.71), p = .045 and.03, respectively]. CONCLUSION Basiliximab reduces the incidence of ACR but increases the risk of AMR, CAV, and may be associated with increased mortality. Mechanistic studies are needed to describe a potential T-cell-escape mechanism with enhanced humoral immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Annual heart transplant (HT) volumes have increased, as have post-HT outpatient care needs. Data on HT-related emergency department (ED) visits are limited. METHODS AND RESULTS A retrospective analysis of 177 450 HT patient ED visits from the 2009 to 2018 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample was conducted. HT recipients, primary diagnoses, and comorbidities associated with ED visits were identified via International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) codes. Multivariable logistic regression was used to predict outcomes of hospital admission and death. HT volumes and HT-related ED visits increased from 2009 to 2018. Infection was the most common primary diagnosis (24%), and cardiac primary diagnoses represented 10% of encounters. Hospital admissions occurred in 48% of visits, but overall mortality was low (1.6%). Length of stay was 3.1 days (interquartile range, 1.6-5.9 days), and comorbidity burden was high: 42% had hypertension, 38% had diabetes, and 31% had ≥2 comorbidities. Those aged ≥65 years had significantly higher odds of admission (odds ratio [OR], 2.14 [95% CI, 1.97-2.33]) and death (OR, 2.06 [95% CI, 1.61-2.62]). Comorbidities increased odds of admission (OR, 1.62 [95% CI, 1.51-1.75]) but not death. Renal primary diagnosis had the highest risk of admission (OR, 4.1 [95% CI, 3.6-4.6]), but cardiac primary diagnosis had the highest odds of death (OR, 11.6 [95% CI, 9.1-14.8]). CONCLUSIONS HT-related ED visits increased from 2009 to 2018 with high admission rates but low in-hospital mortality, suggesting an opportunity to improve prehospital care. Older patients and those with cardiac primary diagnoses had the highest risk of death. The observed contrast between predictors of admission and mortality signals a need for further study to improve risk stratification and outpatient care strategies.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pathogenic DNA variants underlie many cardiovascular disease phenotypes. The most well-recognized of these include familial dyslipidemias, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, and aortopathies. The clinical presentations of monogenic forms of cardiovascular disease are often indistinguishable from those with complex genetic and non-genetic etiologies, making genetic testing an essential aid to precision diagnosis. RECENT FINDINGS Precision diagnosis enables efficient management, appropriate use of emerging targeted therapies, and follow-up of at-risk family members. Genetic testing for these conditions is widely available but under-utilized. In this review, we summarize the potential benefits of genetic testing, highlighting the specific cardiovascular disease phenotypes in which genetic testing should be considered, and how clinicians can integrate guideline-directed genetic testing into their practice.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of pregnancy-related mortality and morbidity in the United States, and maternal mortality has increased over the last decade. Pregnancy and the postpartum period are associated with significant vascular, metabolic, and physiologic adaptations that can unmask new heart failure or exacerbate heart failure symptoms in women with known underlying cardiomyopathy. There are unique management considerations for heart failure in women throughout pregnancy, and it is imperative that clinicians caring for pregnant women understand these important principles. Early involvement of multidisciplinary cardio-obstetrics teams is key to optimizing maternal and fetal outcomes. In this review, we discuss the unique challenges and opportunities in the diagnosis of heart failure in pregnancy, management principles along the continuum of pregnancy, and the safety of heart failure therapies during and after pregnancy.

Abstract
There is waning interest among cardiology trainees in pursuing an Advanced Heart Failure/Transplant Cardiology (AHFTC) fellowship as evidenced by fewer applicants in the National Resident Matching Program match to this specialty. This trend has generated considerable attention across the heart failure community. In response, the Heart Failure Society of America convened the AHFTC Fellowship Task Force with a charge to develop strategies to increase the value proposition of an AHFTC fellowship. Subsequently, the HFSA sponsored the AHFTC Fellowship Consensus Conference April 26-27, 2023. Before the conference, interviews of 44 expert stakeholders diverse across geography, site of practice (traditional academic medical center or other centers), specialty/area of expertise, sex, and stage of career were conducted virtually. Based on these interviews, potential solutions to address the declining interest in AHFTC fellowship were categorized into five themes: (1) alternative training pathways, (2) regulatory and compensation, (3) educational improvements, (4) exposure and marketing for pipeline development, and (5) quality of life and mental health. These themes provided structure to the deliberations of the AHFTC Fellowship Consensus Conference. The recommendations from the Consensus Conference were subsequently presented to the HFSA Board of Directors to inform strategic plans and interventions. The HFSA Board of Directors later reviewed and approved submission of this document. The purpose of this communication is to provide the HF community with an update summarizing the processes used and concepts that emerged from the work of the HFSA AHFTC Fellowship Task Force and Consensus Conference.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a complex trait, influenced by environmental and genetic factors, that affects over 30 million individuals worldwide. Historically, the genetics of HF have been studied in Mendelian forms of disease, where rare genetic variants have been linked to familial cardiomyopathies. More recently, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully identified common genetic variants associated with risk of HF. However, the relative importance of genetic variants across the allele-frequency spectrum remains incompletely characterized. Here, we report the results of common- and rare-variant association studies of all-cause heart failure, applying recently developed methods to quantify the heritability of HF attributable to different classes of genetic variation. We combine GWAS data across multiple populations including 207,346 individuals with HF and 2,151,210 without, identifying 176 risk loci at genome-wide significance (p < 5×10-8). Signals at newly identified common-variant loci include coding variants in Mendelian cardiomyopathy genes (MYBPC3, BAG3), as well as regulators of lipoprotein (LPL) and glucose metabolism (GIPR, GLP1R), and are enriched in cardiac, muscle, nerve, and vascular tissues, as well as myocyte and adipocyte cell types. Gene burden studies across three biobanks (PMBB, UKB, AOU) including 27,208 individuals with HF and 349,126 without uncover exome-wide significant (p < 3.15×10-6) associations for HF and rare predicted loss-of-function (pLoF) variants in TTN, MYBPC3, FLNC, and BAG3. Total burden heritability of rare coding variants (2.2%, 95% CI 0.99-3.5%) is highly concentrated in a small set of Mendelian cardiomyopathy genes, and is lower than heritability attributable to common variants (4.3%, 95% CI 3.9-4.7%) which is more diffusely spread throughout the genome. Finally, we demonstrate that common-variant background, in the form of a polygenic risk score (PRS), significantly modifies the risk of HF among carriers of pathogenic truncating variants in the Mendelian cardiomyopathy gene TTN. These findings suggest a significant polygenic component to HF exists that is not captured by current clinical genetic testing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to characterize patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in registered clinical studies of participants with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). BACKGROUND Therapy for HCM is primarily targeted toward alleviation of symptoms and improvement in function and quality of life. Yet, the contemporary landscape of PROs in HCM clinical research has not been investigated. METHODS ClinicalTrials.gov was queried to identify clinical studies of HCM that reported PROs as outcome measures. All studies of HCM as the disease condition were included, and PROs were identified using specific search terms in the Outcome Measures field. Study characteristics were collected and compared between those that did versus did not report PROs. RESULTS From November 1987 to February 2022, 181 studies including participants with HCM were registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. Of these, 35 (19%) included PROs as outcome measures. Studies reporting PROs were more likely to be designated as interventional (85.7% vs. 46.6%; p < 0.001) and to involve randomization (65.7% vs. 24.7%; p = 0.003) compared with those that did not report PROs. Prior to 2007, no clinical studies that reported PROs were registered in ClinicalTrials.gov; however, PRO reporting has increased over the last 15 years. Of the 66 PRO tools or domains included as outcome measures, the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire was the most often used. CONCLUSIONS Only approximately one in five registered clinical studies of participants with HCM report PROs. As medical, percutaneous, and surgical therapies for HCM continue to advance, HCM-specific PRO tools that assess the impacts of these new treatments on meaningful patient-related endpoints are urgently needed.

Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is widely recognized as one of the most common inheritable cardiac disorders. Since its initial description over 60 years ago, advances in multimodality imaging and translational genetics have revolutionized our understanding of the disorder. The diagnosis and management of patients with HCM are optimized with a multidisciplinary approach. This, along with increased safety and efficacy of medical, percutaneous, and surgical therapies for HCM, has afforded more personalized care and improved outcomes for this patient population. In this review, we will discuss our modern understanding of the molecular pathophysiology that underlies HCM. We will describe the range of clinical presentations and discuss the role of genetic testing in diagnosis. Finally, we will summarize management strategies for the hemodynamic subtypes of HCM with specific emphasis on the rationale and evidence for the use of implantable cardioverter defibrillators, septal reduction therapy, and cardiac myosin inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heuristic biases are increasingly recognized, and potentially modifiable, contributors to patient care and outcomes. Left digit bias is a cognitive bias where continuous variables are categorized by their left-most digit. The impact of this heuristic bias applied to patient age on quality of care in heart failure has not been explored. METHODS We examined participants admitted from 2005 to 2021 in the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure registry. To create 2 naturally randomized groups, isolating the effect of left digit bias, we dichotomized patients into those discharged within 60 days prior to their 80th birthday (N=4238) and those discharged within 60 days after their 80th birthday (N=4329). We performed multivariable logistic regression to assess the association between discharge date relative to 80th birthday and several in-hospital quality metrics and in-hospital outcomes. Among Medicare participants (N=2759), we performed adjusted Cox regression to analyze the relationship between discharge date and risk of 1-year mortality or readmission. RESULTS Among 8567 patients, 50.4% were female, 73% were non-Hispanic White, and 42.9% had an ejection fraction ≤40%. Discharge date relative to 80th birthday was not associated with numerous in-hospital quality metrics or in-hospital outcomes on unadjusted or adjusted logistic regression. Among Medicare beneficiaries, there was no association between discharge date and risk of mortality or readmission at 1-year postdischarge (hazard ratio, 1.03 [95% CI, 0.95-1.12]; P=0.52). CONCLUSIONS In a large registry of patients hospitalized for heart failure, we did not detect a left digit bias' with respect to age at discharge, which resulted in differential quality of care or outcomes.

Abstract
Complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) are commonly used across the world by diverse populations and ethnicities but remain largely unregulated. Although many CAM agents are purported to be efficacious and safe by the public, clinical evidence supporting the use of CAM in heart failure remains limited and controversial. Furthermore, health care professionals rarely inquire or document use of CAM as part of the medical record, and patients infrequently disclose their use without further prompting. The goal of this scientific statement is to summarize published efficacy and safety data for CAM and adjunctive interventional wellness approaches in heart failure. Furthermore, other important considerations such as adverse effects and drug interactions that could influence the safety of patients with heart failure are reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
The burden of heart failure remains substantial worldwide, and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) affects approximately half of this population. Despite this global prevalence of HFrEF, the majority of contemporary clinical trials in HFrEF have underenrolled individuals from minoritized sex, gender, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic groups. Moreover, significant disparities in access to HFrEF treatment and outcomes exist across these same strata. We provide a call to action for the inclusion of diverse populations in HFrEF clinical trials; catalogue several barriers to adequate representation in HFrEF clinical trials; and propose strategies to broaden inclusivity in future HFrEF trials.

Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in sarcomeric genes, leading to left ventricular hypertrophy and complex phenotypic heterogeneity. While HCM is the most common inherited cardiomyopathy, pharmacological treatment options have previously been limited and were predominantly directed towards symptom control owing to left ventricular outflow obstruction. These therapies, including beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, and disopyramide, have not been shown to affect the natural history of the disease, which is of particular concern for younger patients who have an increased lifetime risk of experiencing arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Increased knowledge of the genetic mechanisms underlying this disease in recent years has led to the development of targeted, potentially disease-modifying therapies for both obstructive and nonobstructive phenotypes that may help to prevent or ameliorate left ventricular hypertrophy. In this review article, we will define the etiology and clinical phenotypes of HCM, summarize the conventional therapies for obstructive HCM, discuss the emerging targeted therapies as well as novel invasive approaches for obstructive HCM, describe the therapeutic advances for nonobstructive HCM, and outline the future directions for the treatment of HCM.

Abstract
Heart failure is a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, the contribution of common genetic variation to heart failure risk has not been fully elucidated, particularly in comparison to other common cardiometabolic traits. We report a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study meta-analysis of all-cause heart failure including up to 115,150 cases and 1,550,331 controls of diverse genetic ancestry, identifying 47 risk loci. We also perform multivariate genome-wide association studies that integrate heart failure with related cardiac magnetic resonance imaging endophenotypes, identifying 61 risk loci. Gene-prioritization analyses including colocalization and transcriptome-wide association studies identify known and previously unreported candidate cardiomyopathy genes and cellular processes, which we validate in gene-expression profiling of failing and healthy human hearts. Colocalization, gene expression profiling, and Mendelian randomization provide convergent evidence for the roles of BCKDHA and circulating branch-chain amino acids in heart failure and cardiac structure. Finally, proteome-wide Mendelian randomization identifies 9 circulating proteins associated with heart failure or quantitative imaging traits. These analyses highlight similarities and differences among heart failure and associated cardiovascular imaging endophenotypes, implicate common genetic variation in the pathogenesis of heart failure, and identify circulating proteins that may represent cardiomyopathy treatment targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a paucity of data regarding sex differences in the profiles and outcomes of ambulatory patients on left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support who present to the emergency department (ED). METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a retrospective analysis of 57,200 LVAD-related ED patient encounters from the 2010 to 2018 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample. International Classification of Diseases Clinical Modification, Ninth Revision and Tenth Revision, codes identified patients aged 18 years or older with LVADs and associated primary and comorbidity diagnoses. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were stratified by sex and compared. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate predictors of hospital admission and death. Female patient encounters comprised 27.2% of ED visits and occurred at younger ages and more frequently with obesity and depression (all P < .01). There were no sex differences in presentation for device complication, stroke, infection, or heart failure (all P > .05); however, female patient encounters were more often respiratory- and genitourinary or gynecological related (both P < .01). After adjustment for age group, diabetes, depression, and hypertension, male patient encounters had a 38% increased odds of hospital admission (95% confidence interval 1.20-1.58), but there was no sex difference in the adjusted odds of death (odds ratio 1.11, 95% confidence interval 0.86-1.45). CONCLUSIONS Patient encounters of females on LVAD support have significantly different comorbidities and outcomes compared with males. Further inquiry into these sex differences is imperative to improve long-term outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS To describe the natural history of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) compared with a control group and to identify predictors of adverse events. METHODS AND RESULTS Three hundred and five patients [age 56.6 ± 16.9 years old, 191 (62.6%) male patients] with HCM and SARS-Cov-2 infection were enrolled. The control group consisted of 91 131 infected individuals. Endpoints were (i) SARS-CoV-2 related mortality and (ii) severe clinical course [death or intensive care unit (ICU) admission]. New onset of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, shock, stroke, and cardiac arrest were also recorded. Sixty-nine (22.9%) HCM patients were hospitalized for non-ICU level care, and 21 (7.0%) required ICU care. Seventeen (5.6%) died: eight (2.6%) of respiratory failure, four (1.3%) of heart failure, two (0.7%) suddenly, and three (1.0%) due to other SARS-CoV-2-related complications. Covariates associated with mortality in the multivariable were age {odds ratio (OR) per 10 year increase 2.25 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.12-4.51], P = 0.0229}, baseline New York Heart Association class [OR per one-unit increase 4.01 (95%CI: 1.75-9.20), P = 0.0011], presence of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [OR 5.59 (95%CI: 1.16-26.92), P = 0.0317], and left ventricular systolic impairment [OR 7.72 (95%CI: 1.20-49.79), P = 0.0316]. Controlling for age and sex and comparing HCM patients with a community-based SARS-CoV-2 cohort, the presence of HCM was associated with a borderline significant increased risk of mortality OR 1.70 (95%CI: 0.98-2.91, P = 0.0600). CONCLUSIONS Over one-fourth of HCM patients infected with SARS-Cov-2 required hospitalization, including 6% in an ICU setting. Age and cardiac features related to HCM, including baseline functional class, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and systolic impairment, conveyed increased risk of mortality.

Abstract
Diversity in the healthcare workforce enhances access to care, reduces health disparities, and improves quality of care for underserved populations. Yet there is a paucity of women and underrepresented minority physicians in cardiology training programs, and progress toward achieving a diverse cardiology workforce has been slow. Here we review the merits of diversity in health care, the current landscape of the cardiology workforce, barriers to increasing the proportion of women and underrepresented minority cardiologists, and specific strategies that have been proposed to sustain and enhance diversity in cardiology training programs.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is an increasingly common comorbidity of stage C heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The two diseases are risk factors for each other and can bidirectionally independently worsen outcomes. The regulatory requirement of cardiovascular outcomes trials for antidiabetic agents has led to an emergence of novel therapies with robust benefits in heart failure, and clinicians must now ensure they are familiar with the management of patients with concurrent diabetes and stage C HFrEF. This review summarises the current evidence for the management of type 2 diabetes in stage C HFrEF, recapitulating data from landmark heart failure trials regarding the use of guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure in patients with diabetes. It also provides a preview of upcoming clinical trials in these populations.

Abstract
AIMS Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy is fundamental to the management of LMNA-cardiomyopathy due to the high frequency of atrioventricular block and ventricular tachyarrhythmias. We aim to define the role of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in impacting heart failure in LMNA-cardiomyopathy. METHODS AND RESULTS From 9 referral centers, LMNA-cardiomyopathy patients who underwent CRT with available pre- and post- echocardiograms were identified retrospectively. Factors associated with CRT response were identified [defined as improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥5% 6-months post-implant] and the associated impact on the primary outcome of death, implantation of a left ventricular assist device or cardiac transplantation was assessed. We identified 105 patients (51±10 years) undergoing CRT, including 70 (67%) who underwent CRT as a CIED upgrade. The mean change in LVEF ~6 months post CRT was +4±9%. A CRT response occurred in 40 (38%) patients and was associated with lower baseline LVEF or a high percentage of right ventricular pacing prior to CRT in patients with pre-existing CIED. In patients with an ESC Class I guideline indication for CRT, response rates were 61%. A CRT response was evident at thresholds of LVEF ≤45% or percent pacing ≥50%. There was a 1.3 year estimated median difference in event-free survival in those who responded to CRT (p=0.04). CONCLUSION Systolic function improves in patients with LMNA-cardiomyopathy who undergo CRT, especially with strong guideline indications for implantation. Post CRT improvements in LVEF are associated with survival benefits in this population with otherwise limited options.

Abstract
Purpose of review The purpose of this review is to summarize what is known about the relationship between exercise and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) with regard to disease onset, diagnosis, progression, and clinical severity. This relationship forms the basis of the management recommendations for restricting physical activity in individuals with and at risk for ARVC. Recent findings While ARVC can be challenging to diagnose, there are several diagnostic testing and imaging modalities that may help distinguish athletic heart remodeling from ARVC. There is an increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes in ARVC from endurance and competitive sports participation, including a dose-dependent relationship between exercise intensity and risk of disease penetrance and progression. Summary High-intensity exercise can lead to earlier disease onset, increased penetrance, and clinical progression among individuals with and at risk for ARVC. Both amount and intensity of exercise are correlated with adverse outcomes, including ventricular arrhythmias and worsening biventricular function. All individuals with and at risk for ARVC should undergo detailed clinical phenotyping and risk stratification to reduce the risk of such outcomes, including sudden cardiac death. Consensus guidelines recommend against participation in competitive or high-intensity and endurance exercise for individuals with and at risk for ARVC.
