Prognostic impact of iron deficiency in new‐onset chronic heart failure: Danish Heart Failure Registry insights

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1346-1357, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Iron deficiency (ID) is prevalent in chronic heart failure (HF) but lacks a consensus definition. This study evaluates the prevalence and the prognostic impact of ID using different criteria on all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality, as well as first hospitalization for HF in patients with new‐onset chronic HF.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists reduce inflammatory signaling independent of myofiber mineralocorticoid receptor

Endocrine and Metabolic Science
Chronic inflammation is a feature of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a degenerative striated muscle disease. Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists (MRAs) have demonstrated clinical benefit on later onset DMD cardiomyopathy, and preclinical ...

A Delphi consensus project to capture experts' opinion on hyperkalaemia management across the cardiorenal spectrum

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1132-1140, April 2025.
Abstract The main purpose of this project was to capture experts' opinion on hyperkalaemia management and form best practice recommendations for cardiorenal patients in Greece. A steering committee of nephrologists and cardiologists developed 37 statements. An online questionnaire completed by 32 experts in cardiorenal management in Greece.

Aldosterone Synthase Inhibitors for Cardiorenal Protection: Ready for Prime Time?

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research
Background: Aldosterone is the principal mineralocorticoid hormone and the final effector of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. This hormone is primarily synthesized by the CYP11B2 enzyme and produced by the adrenal zona glomerulosa ...

FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1485-1489, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Cilostazol in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction—The CLIP‐HFpEF trial

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1437-1446, April 2025.
• Cilostazol is an oral PDE‐3 inhibitor that may have advantageous effects in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). • Cilostazol significantly improved short‐term heart failure‐related health status scores (KCCQ‐12) and NT‐proBNP levels when compared to placebo.

Adrenal insufficiency and the use of mineralocorticoid treatment in male patients with adrenoleukodystrophy; a retrospective analysis of an institutional database

BMC Endocrine Disorders
Introduction Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) patients exhibit three primary clinical phenotypes: primary adrenal insufficiency, adrenomyeloneuropathy, and cerebral demyelination due to the accumulation of saturated very long-chain fatty acids in the adrenal ...
