This paper is based on the author’s 20+ years of experience treating patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) as a cardiologist. In the 20+ years, 64 patients were treated, including both with reduced and preserved left ventricular function. Most patients had a 4 - 5 days hospitalization in their first admission with one readmission (1.6%) over seven years. This paper will help us understand the physiology and pathophysiology of congestive heart failure, especially how to use beta blockers and diuretics. It will shorten the length of hospitalization and lower the readmission rate and cost of CHF treatment. This paper will help us to open another research direction for CHF. 展开更多

This editorial discusses the manuscript by Di Maria et al,published in the recent issue of the World Journal of Cardiology.We here focus on the still elusive pathophysiological mechanisms underlying cardio-renal syndrome(CRS),despite its high prevalence and the substantial worsening of both kidney function and heart failure.While the measure of right atrial pressure through right cardiac catheterization remains the most accurate albeit invasive and costly procedure,integrating bedside ultrasound into diagnostic protocols may substantially enhance the staging of venous congestion and guide therapeutic decisions.In particular,with the assessment of Doppler patterns across multiple venous districts,the Venous Excess Ultrasound(VExUS)score improves the management of fluid overload and provides insight into the underlying factors contributing to cardio-renal interactions.Integrating specific echocardiographic parameters,particularly those concerning the right heart,may thus improve the VExUS score sensitivity,offering perspective into the nuanced comprehension of cardio-renal dynamics.A multidisciplinary approach that consistently incorporates the use of ultrasound is emerging as a promising advance in the understanding and management of CRS. 展开更多

Objective To explore the role of serum fibrotic indices including hyaluronic acid (HA), procollagen type Ⅲ NH2-terminal peptide (PCIIIP), and laminin (LN) in assessing the severity of myocardial fibrosis in chronic congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods Serum levels of HA, PCIIIP, and LN in 39 patients with CHF E [14 with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II, 21 with class Ⅲ, 4 with class Ⅳ] and in 46 patients with NYHA functional class I were assessed by radioimmunoassay. Results The serum concentrations of HA, PCMP, and LN were 359.75 ± 84.59 μg/L, 77.88 ± 24. 67 μg/L, 86. 73 ± 23.90 μg/L in CHF group, and 211.60 ±54. 80 μg/L, 64.82 ±23.99 μg/L, 82. 26 ±23.98 μg/L in NYHA functional class Ⅰ group, respectively. The HA level was significantly higher in CHF patients as compared with NYHA functional class Ⅰ group ( P 〈 0.05 ). However, no difference was found in the levels of PCIIIP and LN between CHF group and NYHA functional class Ⅰ group. The serum HA concentration was negatively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction ( r = - 0.71, P 〈 0.05 ). Conclusion Serum HA level may act as an indicator for myocardial fibrosis. 展开更多

Objectives To assess the safety of a cardiac rehabilitation program for older women with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and determine if certain factors influence adherence. Methods Women over the age of 65 with CHF attended an exercise program supervised by a physiotherapist. Quality of life was measured by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) and severity of disease by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class. Subjects were classified into those who attended 90% or more of the sessions and those who attended less than 90% of the sessions. Results Fifty-one subjects were studied. Eight subjects did not attend any sessions. Of the 43 attendees, the average percentage of sessions attended was 87%. There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, MLHFQ or NYHA Class. There was only one adverse event out of 280 participant attendances. Conclusions The program had a high level of adherence in this population. Age, MLHFQ or NYHA Class did not impact on session attendance. Our data suggests this program is safe for this population. Further research is needed to determine other predictors of attendance and the examination of safety issues and long-term adherence to exercise in this population. 展开更多

Congestive heart failure (CHF) has emerged as a major worldwide epidemic and its main causes seem to be the aging of the population and the survival of patients with post-myocardial infarction. Cardiomyocyte dropout (necrosis and apoptosis) plays a critical role in the progress of CHF; thus treatment of CHF by exogenous cell implantation will be a promising medical approach. In the acute phase of cardiac damage cardiac stem cells (CSCs) within the heart divide symmetrically and/or asymmetrically in response to the change of heart homeostasis, and at the same time homing of bone marrow stem cells (BMCs) to injured area is thought to occur, which not only reconstitutes CSC population to normal levels but also repairs the heart by differentiation into cardiac tissue. So far, basic studies by using potential sources such as BMCs and CSCs to treat animat CHF have shown improved ventricular remodelling and heart function. Recently, however, a few of randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials demonstrated mixed results in heart failure with BMC therapy during acute myocardial infarction. 展开更多

The apoptosis and the expression of p53, bcl-2 and Bax in myocytes of chronic rapid ventricular pacing-induced congestive heart failure (CHF) in rabbits were investigated. The CHF rabbit model (P, n=7) was established by chronic rapid ventricular pacing for 3 weeks. By using TUNEL technique the apoptosis in the myocytes in the rabbit model was studied and the expression of p53, bcl-2 and Bax in myocytes was detected by using immunohistochemical method. Sham-operated (C, n=9) group served as control group. The results showed that there were about 4033± 884.56 apoptotic cells/10 6 myocytes in P group, but no apoptotic cells were found in C group. Myocytes positive for p53 immunoreactivity (18.86±8.48 vs 5.06±0.87, P<0.01) and positive for Bax immunoreactivity (7.15±1.91 vs 0.43±0.09, P<0.01) were increased in P group as compared with those in C group, while the myocytes positive for bcl-2 immunoreactivity (7.08±1.05 vs 14.97±4.47, P<0.01) and the ratio of bcl-2/Bax were decreased in P group as compared with those in C group. Apoptosis was involved in the development of CHF induced by continuously rapid ventricular pacing in rabbit. The expression of p53 and Bax was increased, while the expression of bcl-2 was inhibited. These might play an important role in the acceleration of the apoptosis. 展开更多

Background: One of the risk factors of congestive heart failure that still under investigations is hyperuricemia. It’s still debatable whether it’s an independent risk factor or it’s just a consequence of other disorders associated with cardiovascular diseases like hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Objective: The aim of our study is to elucidate whether in patients with heart failure serum uric acid level correlates with left ventricular ejection fraction supporting the possibility that the detection of progressive hyperuricemia in these patients may be an indicator of deteriorating cardiac function. Methods: We conducted a prospective study that included 124 studied patients and 26 apparently healthy persons at Coronary care unit and Internal Medicine Department at Sohag University Hospitals. Studied populations were classified into;* Group “I”: newly diagnosed heart failure, * Group “II”: decompensated heart failure on regular treatment, * Group “III”: decompensated heart failure but stopped their treatment from three months, Group “IV”: control group, healthy and age-matched subjects. We studied the association between left ventricular ejection fraction, the severity of congestive heart failure and the serum uric acid levels and the well-known conventional risk factors. Results: The main finding was the significantly higher mean serum uric acid levels in patients with congestive heart failure versus apparently healthy persons with “P value = 0.02”. When we adjusted the serum uric acid with other significant risk factors in the univariate analysis which were age, gender and smoking, serum uric acid was an independent risk factor “P value = 0.04”. There was a significant correlation between serum uric acid level and the severity of congestive heart failure “P value 0.35”. High rates of serum uric acid levels were recorded in patients with reduced ejection fraction. A uric acid level of 8.45 mg/dl was found to be the most appropriate cut-off point with the sensitivity 62% and the specificity 78.5%. Conclusion: Higher serum uric acid levels are significantly correlated with the severity of congestive heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction. Serum uric acid is an independent risk factor for congestive heart failure. 展开更多

Generalized edema (anasarca) is common in nephrotic syndrome which rarely produces shortness of breath. Increased shortness of breath associated with rapid weight gain and generalized edema signify congestive heart failure (CHF). Loop diuretics consisting of furosemide (Lasix&#174), bumetanide (Bumex&#174), torsemide (Demadex&#174) or ethacrynic acid (Edecrin) are effective diuretics to treat anasarca. However, efficacy varies depending on the renal function. Loop diuretic given orally or by intravenous boluses produce good urine output but overall response in reducing edema or shortness of breath as in CHF is less than optimum. Although literature information is very limited, continuous bumetanide infusion for 72 to 96 hours is found to be very effective in producing subjective relief of shortness of breath as well as objective improvement such as reduction in brain natriuretic peptide in CHF and improved kidney function, so that diuresis is sustained even after discontinuation of the infusion. Decrease in kidney function and electrolytes and acid-base imbalance are common but they are reversible with prompt replacement therapy. They pose no threat to life. 展开更多

The present study investigated the application of echocardiography to evaluation of cardiac dyssynchrony in patients with congestive heart failure(CHF). A total of 348 consecutive CHF patients who were admitted for cardiac resynchronization(CRT) and presented with low ejection fraction(EF) and wide QRS duration were enrolled in this study, along with 388 healthy individuals. Dyssynchrony was assessed based on filling time ratio(FT/RR), left ventricular pre-ejection delay(PED), interventricular mechanical delay(IVMD), longitudinal opposing wall delay(LOWD) and radial septal to posterior wall delay(RSPWD). Response to CRT was defined as a ≥15% increase in EF. The results showed that FT/RR was decreased while PED, IVMD, LOWD and RSPWD were increased in the CHF group compared with the control group(P〈0.01). In the CHF group, FT/RR was negatively correlated with the QRS duration, LV end-diastolic diameter(LVESd), LV end-diastolic volume(LVEDV) and LV end-systolic volume(LVESV)(P〈0.01), but positively with the LVEF(P〈0.01). Additionally, PED, IVMD, LOWD and RSPWD were positively correlated with the QRS duration, LVESd, LVEDV and LVESV(P〈0.01), but negatively with the LVEF(P〈0.01). The CHF group was divided into three subgroups according to the varying degrees of LVEF. FT/RR decreased successively from the LVEF-1 group to the LVEF-2 group to the LVEF-3 group, while the PED, IVMD, LOWD and RSPWD successively increased in the same order(P〈0.01). The CHF group was divided into three subgroups according to the varying degrees of QRS duration, and FT/RR decreased successively in a sequence from the QRS-1 group to the QRS-2 group to the QRS-3 group, while the PED, IVMD, LOWD and RSPWD successively increased in the same order(P〈0.01). Speckle tracking radial dyssynchrony ≥130 ms was predictive of an EF response in patients in QRS-1 group(78% sensitivity, 83% specificity), those in QRS-2 group(83% sensitivity, 77% specificity) and in QRS-3 group(89% sensitivity, 79% specificity). In conclusion, echocardiography is a convenient and sensitive method for evaluating cardiac dyssynchrony in patients with CHF. 展开更多

Objectives To investigate the relationship of serum leptin concentration with the lipids and body mass index (BMI) in patients with chronic congestive heart failure(CHF). Methods The serum concentration of leptin in 39 patients with CHF (14 in cardiac function class Ⅱ , 21 in class Ⅲ, 4 in classⅣ , NYHA) and in 46 patients with cardiac function class Ⅰ (NYHA) were assessed by radioimmunoassay. Results The serum concentration of leptin were 9.018±4.519 μg/l in CHF group (cardiac function class Ⅱ 11.492±5.649 μg/l, class Ⅲ 7.763±3.321 μg/l, class Ⅳ 6.100±2.657 μg/l); 11.674± 6.911 μg/l in class Ⅰ group. The serum concentrations of leptin were significantly lower in CHF group, as compared with class Ⅰ group (P〈 0.05). Moreover, the decrease of serum leptin concentration was significantly correlated with the decreased serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglyceride, body mass index and left ventricular ejection fraction in CHF group, respectively (P 〈 0.05). Conclusions The significance of the decrease in serum leptin in CHF patients needs further study. 展开更多

The enhanced cardiac contractility effect of human recombinant growth hormone (hr-GH) on the congestive heart failure (CHF) was studied on the pig. To build a pig model of congestive heart failure, a temporary artificial cardiac pacemaker was implanted in the pig’s body and paced at 220 beats to 240 beats per minute for 1 week. After the model of congestive heart failure was successfully set up, the frequency of the pacemaker was changed to 150 beats to 180 beats per minute to maintain the CHF model stable. Pigs were divided into three groups: The hr-GH group in which 0.5 mg/kg per day of hr-GH was administrated intramuscularly for 15 days, the injection control group in which an equal amount of physiological saline was injected intramuscularly, and a normal control group. The left ventricular diastolic end pressure was (10.60±2.41) mmHg in the hr-GH group, but (19.00±3.81) mmHg in the saline control group (P<0.01); Cardiac output was (1.86±0.13) L/min in the hr-GH group, but (1.56±0.18) L/min in the saline control group (P<0.05); Peripheral vascular resistance was (56.88±7.51) mmHg·(L/min) -1 in the hr-GH group, whereas (70.30±11.59) mmHg·(L/min) -1 in the saline control group (P<0.05); +dp/dt max was (2900±316.23) and (2280±286.36) in the hr-HG group and the saline control group respectively (P<0.05). The results show that hr-GH enhances myocardial contractility of CHF, and the CHF model built by a temporary artificial cardiac pacemaker at a high rate of stimulation is reasonable and applicable. 展开更多

Objective: To investigate the intervention effect of Jianxin Decoction (健心汤, JXD) on the cytokine level in serum of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods; Sixty-six patients with CHF were randomly divided into the control group (n = 33) and the trial group (n = 33). The control group received conventional treatment, and the trial group was treated with conventional therapy plus JXD for 4 weeks. Before and after treatment, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and nitrogen monoxide (NO) in serum and cardiac function were determined. Results: After treatment, the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and NO were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.05, or P<0.01) in the two groups, and the lowering degree of the indices in the trial group was more significantly reduced than that in the control group (P<0.05). And cardiac functions in both groups were improved significantly (P<0.05, or P< 0.01). Conclusion: JXD could prevent and reverse ventricular remodeling so as to ameliorate cardiac function through regulating the levels of cytokines. 展开更多

Introduction:Congestive heart failure(CHF)accounts for over$32 billion in health care costs per year and is at the epicenter of health care reform.CHF remains a major cause of hospitalizations.It is known and has been reported that missed diagnosis of and missed opportunities to treat heart failure are associated with higher mortality and morbidity.CHF disease management programs have emerged as a potential solution to the CHF epidemic.The paradox remains that CHF disease management programs still cluster in tertiary hospital systems.The impact of heart failure specialists and specialty teams in community health systems is less well understood.Currently there are not enough CHF-trained teams in the community setting to address this unmet health need.Methods:We explored the impact of CHF clinics in a community-based hospital system on readmission rates,mortality,and symptomatic relief.A total of 384 patients were enrolled in the clinic between 2012 and 2015.Data collected included age,sex,type of heart failure,New York Heart Association class,ejection fraction,serum creatinine and brain natriuretic peptide values,and readmission and mortality rates within 30 days,3 months,6 months,and 1 year.We also compared readmission rates between patients who were followed up in the CHF clinic versus those who were not seen in the CHF clinic.Results:A statistically signifi cant difference was demonstrated in readmission rates between patients who were followed up in the CHF clinic versus those who did not visit the CHF clinic for up to 1 year of follow-up.Conclusion:CHF community hospital clinics that use a rapid and frequent follow-up format with CHF-trained teams effectively reduce rehospitalization rates up to 1 year. 展开更多

B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) is usually ordered to evaluate the CHF severity. However, it is difficult to interpret serum BNP level when different clinical entities existed. The aim of this study is to illustrate the correlation between serum BNP level and relevant clinical variables and further determine the role of serum BNP in different CHF patients. Methods: Univariate comparisons between 26 clinical variables and serum BNP level were analyzed. In order to avoid confounding factors, potential independent clinical variables were analyzed together using multivariate regression. Results: 529 CHF patients were reviewed and divided into different groups by 26 clinical variables. Serum BNP levels were found statistically significant different by univariate compareson between groups divided by 8 clinical variables that included obesity, diastolic/systolic heart failure (HF), serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level, serum creatinine (Cr) level, serum sodium (Na) level, patients taking loop diuretics, history of cerebrovascular accident (CVA), and history of dementia. Among all 8 clinical variables, obesity, serum BUN, Cr level, and diastolic/systolic HF had weak-to-moderate correlation effects with serum BNP level by correlation coefficient analysis. However, only obesity and dia- stolic/systolic HF were two moderately stronger clini- cal variables that can affect the serum BNP levels by multivariate regression. Analyzing CHF patients separately by obesity and diastolic/systolic HF subsets showed longer hospitalization in diastolic HF patients with relatively higher serum Cr level. In addition, poor correlation was found between serum BNP level and length of hospitalization (LOH) as well. Conclusion: High variability of serum BNP levels exists in CHF patients with weak-to-moderate correlation effects particularly on obesity and diastolic/systolic HF.It is recommended that physicians should be cautious on interpreting BNP in different CHF populations. 展开更多

Background: CHF (Congestive Heart Failure) is one of the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in the world. Diuretics such as spironolactone can decrease pulmonary congestion and reduce the amount of fibrosis in CHF patients. The goal was to assess whether spironolactone can decrease air way resistance and can we follow up the effect of diuretic therapy in patients of heart failure quantitatively by means of impulse oscillometry. Methods: It was clinical trial which performed in Ahvaz teaching hospital. 24 patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) which was classified as functional class II-IV and had EF Result: The age of patient was 61 ± 10 and the age of control was 57 ± 7 years old. The data of oscillometry before and after spironolactone were X5 (&minus;0.14 ± 0.05 vs &minus;0.14 ± 0.05, P: 0.93), R5 (0.39 ± 0.21 vs 0.39 ± 0.15, P: 0.35), X20 (&minus;0.04 ± 0.06 vs &minus;0.06 ± 0.06, P: 0.37), R20 (0.04 ± 0.03 vs 0.06 ± 0.06, P: 0.37), Zrs (0.39 ± 0.21 vs 0.39 ± 0.15, P: 0.35). Conclusion: There was a trend toward reduction of peripheral airway resistances in CHF patients than controls with use of 1 month of spironolactone. Although there was not significant change in the number of X5, R5, X20, R20 occurred the trend toward reduction of number triggers the point that oscillometry can be used for quantitative follow up of CHF patients. 展开更多
