Importance: Angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibition (ARNI) improves mortality among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), ie, those with an EF of 40% or less.
Objective: To describe national longitudinal trends in ARNI prescribing patterns among hospitalized patients with HFrEF.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Using data from the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure (GWTG-HF) registry, hospitalized patients with HFrEF at 614 participating hospitals were identified.

Background: Whether angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events and improve peritoneal function in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients remains unclear. Thus, this study aims to clarify the role of ARNI in PD patients.
Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective study.

Background: LCZ696 (sacubitril/valsartan) antagonizes the renin-angiotensin system while simultaneously augmenting the natriuretic peptides (NPs). Inhibition of phosphodiesterase 9 inhibition (PDE9i), which hydrolyses NP-generated cGMP may be a more specific means of enhancing NP bioactivity. The objective of the present study was to compare for the first time effects of LCZ696 and PDE9i+valsartan in experimental heart failure (HF) and investigate combination PDE9i+LCZ696.

Background: Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may be one of the major reasons for hesitation or failure to initiate potentially beneficial therapies in patients with heart failure (HF).
Objectives: This study sought to assess if the effects of sacubitril/valsartan (vs valsartan) on cardiovascular outcomes differ according to baseline kidney function in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction.
Methods: The PARAGON-HF (Prospective Comparison of ARNI with ARB Global Outcomes in HF with Preserved Ejection Fraction) trial was global clinical trial of 4,796 patients with chronic HF and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥45% randomly assigned to sacubitril/valsartan or valsartan.
