Adiposity and clinical outcomes in East Asian patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction
Source : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352906722002111?via=ihub
Despite the obesity paradox, visceral adiposity is associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, it remains unclear whether a relationship between...
Conclusions: In lean East Asian patients with HFpEF, a lower VAT volume was associated with poorer clinical outcomes. CT-based assessments of adiposity may provide incremental prognostic value over simple anthropometric indices in lean HFpEF patients.

Conclusion: In EMPEROR-Preserved, empagliflozin was effective and safe without SBP meaningfully moderating empagliflozin’s treatment effects. This analysis of EMPEROR-Preserved shows that empagliflozin can be used safely and effectively without blood pressure being a meaningful moderator of the drug benefit.
