Elevation in systolic blood pressure during heart failure hospitalization is associated with increased short and long-term mortality.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between systolic blood pressure (SBP) change during hospitalization of patients with heart failure (HF) and clinical outcomes has never been thoroughly investigated.A total of 3393 patients hospitalized with HF, from 25 hospitals in Israel, were enrolled. The SBP change was calculated by subtracting the discharge SBP values from the admission values and then divided into quartiles of SBP change. We compared the group with upper quartile SBP change to the lower 3 quartiles of change. Both groups had largely similar demographics and clinical characteristics. All-cause mortality rate was 24% at 1-year and 82.6% at 10-years, whereas patients in the upper SBP change group had significantly higher cumulative mortality probability at 1-year (30% vs 22%; log-rank P?<0.001), and at 10-years (86% vs 82%; log-rank P <0.001). Multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis adjusted for comorbidities demonstrated that patients in the upper SBP change quartile have an independent 17% higher mortality risk at 10-years [hazard ratio (HR) 1.17; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.08-1.28]. Subgroup analysis demonstrated that mortality risk was more pronounced in patients with preserved ejection fraction and in the subgroup with admission SBP ?140?mm Hg.SBP change is significantly associated with 1- and 10-year all-cause mortality, as an increased SBP change is associated with worse prognosis. We believe that this readily available marker might facilitate risk stratification of patients and possibly improve care.

Project description:Objective:Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI) have been associated with weight gain, but their effect on short-term overweight and obesity incidence, blood pressure (BP), and metabolic markers has not been described in treatment-naïve people with HIV(PWH). Method:Medical records of treatment-naïve persons starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) at the HIV Clinic of University Hospital of Elche, Spain, between January 2007 and July 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. Standard procedures included measurements of weight, BP, and metabolic assessment. Data at baseline, 48, 72, and 96 weeks post ART initiation were analyzed. We used Cox mixed-effects model to generate predictions of body mass index (BMI) over time and generalized additive mixed models to relax the linearity assumptions and generate 95% confidence intervals in the multivariable adjustment. Results:Among 219 (median age, 44.0 years; interquartile range [IQR], 37.0-53.5; 46 females) participants. Baseline weight mean (standard deviation) was 70.4 (13.7) kg without difference between regimens; 66% had a BMI <25 kg/mt2. The incidence of overweight and obesity was significantly greater in persons starting INSTI-based regimens: 15 (36.6%) of 41 patients treated with INSTI versus 30 (28.9%) of 104 treated with other ART regimens (hazard ratio, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.2-4.4; P = .011). In contrast to other ART regimens, patients treated with INSTI showed a significant increase in systolic BP (SBP) (adjusted increase, 7.0 mmHg; 95% CI, 0.3-13.7; P = .039) that was correlated with weight gain (r = 0.13; 95% CI, 0.10-0.16; P < .001). Patients who reached overweight and obesity in INSTI-based ART showed a significant increase in LDL cholesterol. Conclusions:Integrase strand transfer inhibitors-based ART was associated in the short-term with a greater risk of overweight and obesity and SBP elevation. Patients developing overweight and obesity increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with no other metabolic disturbances.
