    Abstract: No studies have explored the association between newly diagnosed infections after admission and clinical outcomes in patients with acute heart failure. We aimed to explore the factors associated with newly diagnosed infection after admission for acute heart failure, and its association with in‐hospital and post‐discharge clinical outcomes. Methods and Results Among 4056 patients enrolled in the Kyoto Congestive Heart Failure registry, 2399 patients without any obvious infectious disease upon admission were analyzed. The major in‐hospital and post‐discharge outcome measures were all‐cause deaths. There were 215 patients (9.0%) with newly diagnosed infections during hospitalization, and 2184 patients (91.0%) without infection during hospitalization. The factors independently associated with a newly diagnosed infection were age ≥80 years, acute coronary syndrome, non‐ambulatory status, hyponatremia, anemia, intubation, and patients who were not on loop diuretics as outpatients. The newly diagnosed infection group was associated with a higher incidence of in‐hospital mortality (16.3% and 3.2%, P 〈 0.001) and excess adjusted risk of in‐hospital mortality (odds ratio, 6.07 [95% CI, 3.61–10.19], P 〈 0.001) compared with the non‐infection group. The newly diagnosed infection group was also associated with a higher 1‐year incidence of post‐discharge mortality (19.3% in the newly diagnosed infection group and 13.6% in the non‐infection group, P 〈 0.001) and excess adjusted risk of post‐discharge mortality (hazard ratio, 1.49 [95% CI, 1.08–2.07], P =0.02) compared with the non‐infection group. Conclusions Elderly patients with multiple comorbidities were associated with the development of newly diagnosed infections after admission for acute heart failure. Newly diagnosed infections after admission were associated with higher in‐hospital and post‐discharge mortality in patients with acute heart failure.

    Abstract: There was no previous report on the prognostic impact of new-onset or improved anemia after discharge from acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We analyzed 771 patients with ADHF and who were followed in multicenters in Japan was divided into 4 groups based on the hemoglobin values at discharge and 6-month index visit: 373 patients (48.4%) with persistent anemia, 87 patients (11.3%) with new-onset anemia, 91 patients (11.8%) with improved anemia, and 220 patients (28.5%) without anemia. The primary outcome measure was a composite of all-cause death or HF hospitalization after index visit. The cumulative 6-month incidences of the primary outcome measure were 25.2% for persistent anemia, 18.5% for new onset anemia, 9.0% for improved anemia, and 9.2% for no anemia (log-rank P   〈  .001). Compared with the no anemia group, the excess risk for the primary outcome measure remained significant in the persistent anemia group [hazard ratio (HR) 2.70, 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 1.45–5.44, P  = .001] and in the new-onset anemia group (HR 2.73, 95% CI 1.19–6.25, P  = .02), while it was not significant in the improved anemia group (HR 1.69, 95% CI 0.68–4.03, P  = .25). Persistent and new-onset anemia at 6-month visit were associated with a subsequent higher risk for all-cause death or HF hospitalization in patients with ADHF, suggesting the importance of detecting anemia during follow-up.

    Abstract: Background: The prognostic implications of very low body mass index (BMI) values remain unclear in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). This study aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of BMI classification based on the World Health Organization criteria in patients with ADHF. Methods and Results: Using data from 4056 consecutive patients with ADHF hospitalized in 19 participating hospitals in Japan between October 2014 and March 2016, we analyzed 3509 patients with available BMI data at discharge. The patients were divided into five groups; (1) Severely underweight: BMI 〈 16 kg/m 2 , (2) Underweight: BMI≥16 kg/m 2 and 〈 18.5 kg/m 2 , (3) Normal weight: BMI≥18.5 kg/m 2 and 〈 25 kg/m 2 , (4) Overweight: BMI≥25 kg/m 2 and 〈 30 kg/m 2 (5) Obese: BMI≥30 kg/m 2 . The primary outcome measure was all-cause death. The median follow-up duration was 471 days, with 96.4% follow up at 1-year. The cumulative 1-year incidence of all-cause death was higher in underweight groups, and lower in overweight groups (Severely underweight: 36.3%, Underweight: 23.9%, Normal weight: 14.4%, Overweight: 7.9%, and Obese: 9.0%, P 〈 0.001). After adjusting confounders, the excess mortality risk remained significant in the severely underweight group (HR, 2.38; 95%CI, 1.88-3.02; P 〈 0.001), and in the underweight group (HR, 1.33; 95%CI, 1.10-1.62; P=0.003) relative to the normal weight group, while the lower mortality risk was no longer significant in the overweight group (HR, 0.76; 95%CI, 0.57-1.01; P=0.06), and in the obese group (HR, 0.89; 95%CI, 0.53-1.50; P=0.66). Conclusions: Lower BMI, not obesity, was associated with a higher risk for all-cause death after discharge in patients with ADHF.
