Introduction: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) reduce mortality in heart failure patients with reduced and preserved ejection fraction. Their potential benefits in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are unknown. This study evaluates the relationship between SGLT2i use and all-cause mortality in patients with PAH.

Background: Co-occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and heart failure (HF) elevates the risk of morbidity and mortality. Recent research emphasizes treatment strategies that go beyond glycemic control to enhance heart function.
Aim: To assess the effectiveness and safety of the fixed-drug combination of dapagliflozin and sitagliptin (FDC D/S) in T2DM patients with HF.

AZD5462 is the first oral selective relaxin/insulin-like family peptide receptor 1 agonist in clinical development. The aim of this mechanistic study is to investigate the renal effects of AZD5462 when administered on top of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in participants with heart failure and moderate renal impairment. AURORA is a phase 1b, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 2-centre study of AZD5462 on top of dapagliflozin as standard of care in 2 arms.

Background: SGLT2i exerts several cardiometabolic benefits in heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction through the systemic reduction of insulin, visceral fat, chemokines and growth factors involved in cardiovascular diseases. Anthracyclines are considered the principal culprit drugs behind chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity. The pathognomonic manifestation of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity is a hypokinetic cardiomyopathy progressively leading to heart failure.

Aim: The limited efficacy of monotherapy and the insufficient clinical experience with triple therapy (levosimendan, dapagliflozin, and sacubitril/valsartan) warrant further investigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of triple therapy on left ventricular function in children with advanced heart failure whose left ventricular function had not improved despite classical heart failure treatment and who remained dependent on inotropes.
Methods: The study included children who were admitted to the hospital with advanced heart failure and who were still inotrope-dependent at a mean of 42 days after the start of classical heart failure treatment and then started triple therapy at our hospital.
