JAMA Cardiology article, published March 28, 2026, titled "EMPEROR-Preserved Risk Model and Outcomes in the FINEARTS-HF Trial." Figure 1 shows line graphs of incidence rates of clinical outcomes for heart failure patients, based on EMPEROR-Preserved risk scores.
Biomarker-driven #HFpEF risk stratification using the EMPEROR-Preserved model identified higher absolute benefit from finerenone for patients at greatest baseline risk, while relative treatment effect remained uniform.

JAMA Cardiology: Biomarker, Functional Status, and Quality-of-Life Trajectories Before Modes of Death in Heart Failure. Figure 1 and 2 show cubic splines depicting trajectories in the period preceding sudden death. NYHA class and KCCQ-TSS graphs are displayed.
In #HFmrEF/#HFpEF, sudden death was usually preceded by modest worsening of symptoms, declining quality of life, and rising NT-proBNP, similar to other causes of death, limiting prediction specificity.

What if HFpEF isn’t just a cardiac disease?
We mined 38M+ PubMed abstracts with ML.
5,124 proteins identified.
Strong overlap with metabolic comorbidities.
Top signals? Liver & adipose tissue — not the heart.
HFpEF may be a multi-organ systemic disorder.

Current NT-proBNP thresholds miss high-BMI patients at risk. In pooled #HFpEF trials, those w/ severe obesity faced over twice the event rate despite “normal” values. It’s time to personalize BNP cutoffs. ⚖️
