Mashup Score: 46
Medical decisions can be complicated and lead to confusion, particularly from a patient perspective. Scientific publications used to guide care are frequently not accessible to patients due to limited access, complicated statistical plans, and challenging to interpret medical terms. Improving knowledge through better education about scientific publications in heart failure may help patients feel more informed and empowered to ask questions and be part of the decision-making process around their care.

Mashup Score: 59Generalizability of the Spectrum of Kidney Risk in the FINEARTS-HF Trial to US Adults with Heart Failure - 6 day(s) ago
Albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio [UACR] ≥30 mg/g) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) constitute the basis of contemporary kidney disease staging, and are independently associated with HF onset and progression.1-4 As such, assessment of these complementary domains is important in clinical and research efforts involving the HF population. However, because UACR has been infrequently assessed in HF outcomes trials, generalizability of trial-level kidney risk to real-world HF populations remains uncertain.

The American College of Cardiology, 2024, (ACC.24) Annual Scientific Session offered a plethora of new clinical science within which were heart failure – centric data qualifying as transformative research and advances in clinical practice. Among the highlights were reaffirming trials, groundbreaking data, unanticipated results, and innovative therapeutic strategies with both null but informative data, and definitive outcomes. Regardless of the findings, all of these data will lead to future work, either validating positive findings or further exploring null results.

Mashup Score: 21Alcohol consumption and progression of heart failure in those at risk for or with pre-heart failure - 16 day(s) ago
People with heart risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity or high cholesterol, may develop extra strain on the heart over time because of these risk factors. We researched the association of low and moderate-high levels of alcohol intake, compared to no intake, with changes in the heart over time. We found that amongst participants with heart abnormalities, drinking the equivalent of more than a bottle of wine per week was associated with further negative changes in the heart or development of symptoms of heart failure.
