چکیده

BACKGROUND Despite advances in pharmacologic therapy and devices, patients with heart failure (HF) continue to have significant rehospitalization rates and risk prediction remains challenging. We sought to explore the value of a multi-biomarker panel [including NT-proBNP, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-TnT), and ST2] on top of clinical assessment for long-term prediction of recurrent hospitalizations in HF. METHODS AND RESULTS NT-proBNP, hs-TnT, and ST2 (suppression of tumorigenicity-2) levels were measured in 891 consecutive ambulatory HF patients. The independent association between the multi-biomarker panel and recurrent hospitalizations was assessed through a multivariable negative binomial regression and expressed as incidence rates ratios. McFadden pseudo-R2 and goodness-of-fit measures were also used. The total number of unplanned hospitalizations [all-cause, cardiovascular (CV)-, and HF-related] were selected as the primary endpoints. At a mean follow-up of 4.2 ± 2.1 years, 1623 all-cause hospitalizations in 498 patients (55.9%), 710 CV-related hospitalizations in 331 patients (37.2%), and 444 HF-related hospitalizations in 214 patients (24.1%) were registered. The crude incidence of all-cause, CV-, and HF-related recurrent hospitalizations was significantly higher for patients with the multi-biomarker panel above the cut-point (hs-TnT > 14 ng/L, NT-proBNP > 1000 ng/L, and ST2 > 35 ng/mL) (all P < 0.001). For all-cause, CV-, and HF-related recurrent hospitalizations, the McFadden R2, Akaike information criterion, and Bayesian information criterion supported the superiority of incorporating the multi-biomarker panel into a clinical predictive model. CONCLUSION A multi-biomarker approach based on NT-proBNP, hs-TnT, and ST2 better identifies HF patients at risk for recurrent hospitalizations as compared to approaches entailing just one or two of these biomarkers. Elucidation of new biophysiological predictors for recurrent hospitalizations may identify patient profiles for focused intervention.

ESRD and death after heart failure in CKD.

CKD is a risk factor for heart failure, but there is no data on the risk of ESRD and death after recurrent hospitalizations for heart failure. We sought to determine how interim heart failure hospitalizations modify the subsequent risk of ESRD or death before ESRD in patients with CKD. We retrospectively identified 2887 patients with a GFR between 15 and 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 referred between J...

Prognostic value of circulating chromogranin A levels in acute coronary syndromes

AIMS To determine whether circulating levels of chromogranin A (CgA) provide prognostic information independently of conventional risk markers in acute coronary syndromes (ACSs). METHODS AND RESULTS We measured circulating CgA levels on day 1 in 1268 patients (median age 67 years, 70% male) with ACS admitted to a single coronary care unit of a Scandinavian teaching hospital. The merit of CgA ...

Effect of ivabradine on recurrent hospitalization for worsening heart failure in patients with chronic systolic heart failure: the SHIFT Study

AIMS We explored the effect of treatment with ivabradine, a pure heart rate-slowing agent, on recurrent hospitalizations for worsening heart failure (HF) in the SHIFT trial. METHODS AND RESULTS SHIFT was a double-blind clinical trial in which 6505 patients with moderate-to-severe HF and left ventricular systolic dysfunction, all of whom had been hospitalized for HF during the preceding year, ...

Serum Neprilysin and Recurrent Admissions in Patients With Heart Failure

BACKGROUND Our aim was to evaluate the association between the soluble form of neprilysin (sNEP) levels and long-term all-cause, cardiovascular, and acute heart failure (AHF) recurrent admissions in an ambulatory cohort of patients with heart failure. sNEP has emerged as a new biomarker with promising implications for prognosis and therapy in patients with heart failure. Reducing the recurrent ...
