Catestatin in Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure Patients: Insights from the CATSTAT-HF Study.

ABSTRACT: The role of catestatin (CST) in acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and myocardial infarction (MI) is poorly elucidated. Due to the implicated role of CST in the regulation of neurohumoral activity, the goals of the study were to determine CST serum levels among ninety consecutively enrolled ADHF patients, with respect to the MI history and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and to examine its association with clinical, echocardiographic, and laboratory parameters. CST levels were higher among ADHF patients with MI history, compared to those without (8.94 ± 6.39 vs. 4.90 ± 2.74 ng/mL, p = 0.001). CST serum levels did not differ among patients with reduced, midrange, and preserved LVEF (7.74 ± 5.64 vs. 5.75 ± 4.19 vs. 5.35 ± 2.77 ng/mL, p = 0.143, respectively). In the multivariable linear regression analysis, CST independently correlated with the NYHA class (? = 0.491, p < 0.001), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (? = -0.237, p = 0.026), HbA1c (? = -0.235, p = 0.027), LDL (? = -0.231, p = 0.029), non-HDL cholesterol (? = -0.237, p = 0.026), hs-cTnI (? = -0.221, p = 0.030), and the admission and resting heart rate (? = -0.201, p = 0.036 and ? = -0.242, p = 0.030), and was in positive association with most echocardiographic parameters. In conclusion, CST levels were increased in ADHF patients with MI and were overall associated with a favorable cardiometabolic profile but at the same time reflected advanced symptomatic burden (CATSTAT-HF ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03389386).

Project description:AIMS:Soluble suppression of tumourigenicity 2 (sST2) and catestatin (CST) reflect myocardial fibrosis and sympathetic overactivity during the acute worsening of heart failure (AWHF). We aimed to determine serum levels and associations of sST2 and CST with in-hospital death as well as the association between sST2 and CST among AWHF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS:A total of 96 AWHF patients were consecutively enrolled, while levels of sST2 and CST were determined and compared between non-survivors and survivors. Predictive values of sST2 and CST for in-hospital death were determined by the penalized multivariable Firth logistic regression. The diagnostic ability of sST2 and CST for in-hospital death was assessed by the receiver operating characteristic analysis and examined with respect to the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I, and C-reactive protein. The in-hospital death rate was 6.25%. Serum sST2 and CST levels were significantly higher among non-survivors than survivors [146.6 (inter-quartile range, IQR 65.9-156.2) vs. 35.3 (IQR 20.6-64.4) ng/mL, P < 0.001, and 19.8 (IQR 9.9-28.0) vs. 5.6 (IQR 3.4-9.8) ng/mL, P < 0.001, respectively]. Both sST2 and CST were independent predictors of in-hospital death [Firth coefficient (FC) 6.00, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.48-15.20, P = 0.005, and FC 6.58, 95% CI 1.66-21.78, P = 0.003, respectively], while NT-proBNP was not a significant predictor (FC 1.57, 95% CI 0.51-3.99, P = 0.142). In classifying non-survivors from survivors, sST2 provided area under the curve (AUC) of 0.917 (95% CI 0.819-1.000, P < 0.001) followed by CST (AUC 0.905, 95% CI 0.792-1.000, P < 0.001), while NT-proBNP yielded AUC of 0.735 (95% CI 0.516-0.954, P = 0.036). High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and C-reactive protein were not found as significant classifiers of in-hospital death (AUC 0.719, 95% CI 0.509-0.930, P = 0.075, and AUC 0.682, 95% CI 0.541-0.822, P = 0.164, respectively). Among survivors, those with sST2 serum levels ?35 ng/mL had significantly higher CST levels, compared with those with sST2 < 35 ng/mL (9.05 ± 5.17 vs. 5.06 ± 2.76 ng/mL, P < 0.001). Serum sST2 levels positively and independently correlated with CST levels in the whole patient cohort (? = 0.437, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS:Elevated sST2 and CST levels, reflecting two distinct pathophysiological pathways in heart failure, might indicate impending clinical deterioration among AWHF patients during hospitalization and facilitate prognosis beyond traditional biomarkers regarding the risk of in-hospital death (CATSTAT-HF ClinicalTrials.gov Number NCT03389386).

Project description:OBJECTIVES:This study sought to assess a novel physical rehabilitation intervention in older patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). BACKGROUND:After ADHF, older patients, who are frequently frail with multiple comorbidities, have prolonged and incomplete recovery of physical function and remain at high risk for poor outcomes. METHODS:The REHAB-HF (Rehabilitation Therapy in Older Acute Heart Failure Patients) pilot study was a 3-site, randomized, attention-controlled pilot study of a tailored, progressive, multidomain physical rehabilitation intervention beginning in the hospital and continuing for 12 weeks post-discharge in patients ?60 years hospitalized with ADHF. The primary purpose was to assess the feasibility and reasonableness of the hypothesis that the novel rehabilitation intervention would improve physical function (Short Physical Performance Battery [SPPB]) over 3 months and reduce all-cause rehospitalizations over 6 months. RESULTS:The study enrolled 27 patients with ADHF (ages 60 to 98 years; 59% women; 56% African American; 41% with preserved ejection fraction [?45%]). At baseline, participants had marked impairments in physical function, multiple comorbidities, and frailty. Study retention (89%) and intervention adherence (93%) were excellent. At 3 months, an intervention effect size was measured for the SPPB score of +1.1 U (7.4 ± 0.5 U vs. 6.3 ± 0.5 U), and at 6 months an effect size was observed for an all-cause rehospitalization rate of -0.48 (1.16 ± 0.35 vs. 1.64 ± 0.39). The change in SPPB score was strongly related to all-cause rehospitalizations, explaining 91% of change. CONCLUSIONS:These findings support the feasibility and rationale for a recently launched, National Institutes of Health-funded trial to test the safety and efficacy of this novel multidomain physical rehabilitation intervention to improve physical function and reduce rehospitalizations in older, frail patients with ADHF with multiple comorbidities.
