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

The effect of sacubitril/valsartan compared to olmesartan on cardiovascular remodelling in subjects with essential hypertension: the results of a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled study [PDF]
Aims: Progressive aortic stiffening eventually leads to left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and heart failure if left untreated. Anti-hypertensive agents have been shown to reverse this to some extent. The effects of sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696), a dual-

Angiotensin–Neprilysin Inhibition in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Acute decompensated heart failure accounts for more than 1 million hospitalizations in the United States annually. Whether the initiation of sacubitril–valsartan therapy is safe and effective among patients who are hospitalized for acute ...

Neprilysin inhibition in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Despite current practice, patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of progression to end-stage renal disease and cardiovascular events. Neprilysin inhibition (NEPi) is a new therapeutic strategy with potential to improve outcomes for patients with CKD.

Acute effects on glucose tolerance by neprilysin inhibition in patients with type 2 diabetes
Sacubitril/valsartan is a neprilysin‐inhibitor/angiotensin II receptor blocker used for the treatment of heart failure. Recently, a post‐hoc analysis of a 3‐year randomized controlled trial showed improved glycaemic control with sacubitril/valsartan in ...
