Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be an increasingly common health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Elevated levels of Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF15) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) are reportedly associated with poor clinical outcomes in a broad range of ...

The Evolution of Mineralocorticoid Receptors [PDF]
Abstract When the human mineralocorticoid receptor (hMR) was cloned and sequenced by the Evans laboratory, its close homology with the human glucocorticoid receptor (hGR) was noted; subsequently, on the basis of its higher sequence similarity to the GR than to the progesterone receptor (PR) or androgen receptor (AR), MR and GR have ...

Mineralocorticoids and sodium in chronic kidney disease - regulation and cardiovascular implications [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease is common and associated with an elevated cardiovascular risk, as well as the long-term risk of renal failure. At present, therapeutic approaches to managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) do not fully reverse these risks.

Escape from the sodium-retaining effects of mineralocorticoids [PDF]
The prolonged administration of pharmacologic doses of mineralocorticoids to normal subjects results in hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, polydipsia, polyuria, and transient sodium retention.

In patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction related heart failure, the in‐hospital administration of ARNIs was associated with a reduced risk of MACEs and re‐hospitalizations for heart failure, as well as cardiac remodeling, compared to standard therapy.

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
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
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
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.

Familial Mineralocorticoid Induced Hypertension in the Sultanate of Oman
Objectives: In Oman, many hypertensive patients with a family history of the disease respond to treatment with spironolactone, a mineralocorticoid receptor (MC-R) blocking agent thus suggesting a high prevalence of mineralocorticoid (MC) induced disease.
