Clinical implications of left atrial changes after optimization of medical therapy in patients with heart failure

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2131-2139, November 2022., 2022
Among patients with new‐onset or worsening heart failure (HF) undergoing optimization of HF medical therapy, dose up‐titration of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker (ACEi/ARB) therapy was associated with lower likelihood of left atrial adverse remodelling (LAAR).
