Influence of Sacubitril/Valsartan (LCZ696) on 30-day readmission after heart failure hospitalization [PDF]
Background: Patients with heart failure (HF) are at high risk for hospital readmission in the first 30 days following HF hospitalization. Objectives: This study sought to determine if treatment with sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) reduces rates ...

Present and future pharmacotherapeutic agents in heart failure: an evolving paradigm [PDF]
Many conditions culminate in heart failure (HF), a multi-organ systemic syndrome with an intrinsically poor prognosis. Pharmacotherapeutic agents that correct neurohormonal dysregulation and haemodynamic instability have occupied the forefront of ...

Combined drug sacubitril/valsartan -a new era of treatment of chronic heart failure
The article describes the possibility of using a new class of angiotensin II/neprilysin receptor inhibitor - sacubitrile/valsartan for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). The role of the natriuretic peptide system in the pathogenesis of CHF and

Association between soluble neprilysin and diabetes: Findings from a prospective longitudinal study
BackgroundThe potential role of neprilysin (NEP) in glucose metabolism has been found by basic studies but lacks population evidence. The objective of this study was to examine the association between serum NEP and diabetes in Chinese adults.MethodsIn a ...

Effect of sacubitril/valsartan on recurrent events in the prospective comparison of ARNI with ACEI to determine impact on global mortality and morbidity in heart failure trial (PARADIGM-HF) [PDF]
Aims: Recurrent hospitalizations are a major part of the disease burden in heart failure (HF), but conventional analyses consider only the first event. We compared the effect of sacubitril/valsartan vs.

Angiotensin receptor blocker neprilysin inhibitors
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that results from a structural or functional cardiac disorder that reduces the ability of the ventricle of the heart to fill with, or eject, blood. It is a multifaceted clinical condition that affects up to 2% of the population in the developed world, and is linked to significant morbidity and mortality; it is ...

Effects of sacubitril/valsartan in the PARADIGM-HF Trial (Prospective Comparison of ARNI with ACEI to Determine Impact on Global Mortality and Morbidity in Heart Failure) according to background therapy [PDF]
Background—In the PARADIGM-HF trial (Prospective Comparison of ARNI with ACEI to Determine Impact on Global Mortality and Morbidity in Heart Failure), the angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/valsartan was more effective than the ...

Neprilysin Deficiency Protects Against Fat-Induced Insulin Secretory Dysfunction by Maintaining Calcium Influx [PDF]
Neprilysin contributes to free fatty acid (FFA)-induced cellular dysfunction in nonislet tissues in type 2 diabetes. Here, we show for the first time that with prolonged FFA exposure, islet neprilysin is upregulated and this is associated with reduced ...

Systolic blood pressure, cardiovascular outcomes and efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) in patients with chronic heart failure and reduced ejection fraction: results from PARADIGM-HF [PDF]
Background: Compared to heart failure patients with higher systolic blood pressure (SBP), those with lower SBP have a worse prognosis. To make matters worse, the latter patients often do not receive treatment with life-saving therapies that might ...
