In patients with #HFpEF, treatment with #empagliflozin improves clinical outcomes regardless of background #MRA therapy

jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…
@JACCJournals #JACC @unic_cardiovasc @JavedButler1 @FaiezZANNAD #MiltonPacker @robmentz @BiykemB @HFpEF @ShelleyZieroth
#MRAs were used in 37% of EMPEROR-Preserved study participants. MRA use was higher in those with a more congested clinical picture, with more HF🏥 within the past 12 months, worse HF symptoms, mildly reduced EF, higher NT-proBNP levels, and more use of loop diuretic agents
The effect of empagliflozin to reduce HF 🏥 was more pronounced in MRA nonusers than in MRA users, particularly in the subgroup of patients with LVEFs ≥50% @HFpEF @DrRyanPDaly @AndrewJSauer @AnastasiaSMihai @DrMarthaGulati @ErinMichos @ShelleyZieroth @mvaduganathan

💥‘Pseudohyperkalemia’ Tweetorial

⚡️An important point to remember is that 98% of the potassium (K) stores in the body are intracellular so even a small amount of K released from the cells can significantly affect the concentration of ‘measured’ extracellular potassium

⚡️When blood is drawn to measure potassium, you are measuring ‘extracellular’ potassium concentration and NOT intracellular potassium concentration

Genetic disorder of #Hyperkalemia and #Hypertension (aka FFHt, Gordon, PHAII): Here is a wonderful summary of the spectrum of electrolyte abnormalities and onset in rare disease of Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension from Boyle, Lifton et al. PMID: 22266938
Notice the nice relationship between acidosis and potassium. This is what type IV RTA is all about, nicely explained in our recent study with David Weiner's lab, Harris, @RickGrimmPhD et al. PMID: 29483157
This part of the study MID: 29483157 nicely sums up development of type IV RTA:
