Biology of Sex Differences, 2019 Background African Americans (AA) develop hypertension (HTN) at an earlier age, have a greater frequency and severity of HTN, and greater prevalence of uncontrolled HTN as compared to the white population. Mineralocorticoid antagonists have been shown to

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1029-1044, April 2025.Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Implementation of guideline‐recommended medical therapy for patients with heart failure in Europe
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 790-798, April 2025.Abstract Physicians' adherence to guideline‐recommended heart failure (HF) treatment remains suboptimal, especially regarding the target doses. In particular, there is evidence that non‐cardiologists are less compliant with HF guideline recommendations. This is likely to have a detrimental impact on patients' survival, readmissions and quality of life.

Regulation of Klotho Production by Mineralocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Renal Cell Lines
BiomoleculesThrough the mineralocorticoid receptor, aldosterone controls extracellular volume and arterial blood pressure by stimulating Na+ absorption and K+ secretion in epithelial cells of the kidney, colon, and several glands.

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1194-1202, April 2025.Abstract Aims Cardiac decompensation in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) results in systemic congestion usually treated with diuretics. When despite high doses of diuretics, response is poor, ultrafiltration (UF) appears to be a useful and safe technique.

eGFR slope as predictor of mortality in heart failure patients
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1217-1226, April 2025.Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) leads to an imbalance between heart and kidney function, resulting in poor outcomes. However, the prognostic significance of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) trajectory in HF patients remains unclear. We analysed electronic health records (EHRs) of real‐world HF patients, assessing eGFR trajectories and ...
