Abstract
In patients with right heart failure (RHF) and pulmonary hypertension (PH), classical teaching often advises cautious diuresis in the setting of 'preload dependence' to avoid renal injury and hemodynamic compromise. However, while this physiology may hold true in some clinical settings, such as acute ischemia with right ventricular infarction, it cannot necessarily be extended to PH-related RHF. Rather, in patients with precapillary PH and decompensated RHF, diuresis aimed to decongest the right heart and systemic venous system may be directly beneficial. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of diuresis on renal function and blood pressure in patients with severe precapillary PH. A retrospective chart review was conducted on 62 patients with severe precapillary PH admitted for decompensated RHF. The hemodynamic phenotype of these patients was characterized by invasive hemodynamics and echocardiographic data. Laboratory and hemodynamic data were collected at both admission and discharge. After large-volume diuresis in this patient population, there was an improvement in both glomerular filtration rate and creatinine. While there was a decline in blood pressure after diuresis, this was not clinically significant, given the blood pressure remained in a normal range with improvement in renal function. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that despite concern for preload dependence, significant diuresis in patients with acute decompensated RHF from precapillary PH is not only safe but beneficial.

Abstract
In cardiology clinic visits, the discussion of optimal dietary patterns for prevention and management of cardiovascular disease is usually very limited. Herein, we explore the benefits and risks of various dietary patterns, including intermittent fasting, low carbohydrate, Paleolithic, whole food plant-based diet, and Mediterranean dietary patterns within the context of cardiovascular disease to empower clinicians with the evidence and information they need to maximally benefit their patients.

Abstract
Despite numerous advances in all areas of cardiovascular care, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States (US). There is compelling evidence that interventions to improve diet are effective in cardiovascular disease prevention. This clinical practice statement emphasizes the importance of evidence-based dietary patterns in the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and ASCVD risk factors, including hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. A diet consisting predominantly of fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, plant protein and fatty fish is optimal for the prevention of ASCVD. Consuming more of these foods, while reducing consumption of foods with saturated fat, dietary cholesterol, salt, refined grain, and ultra-processed food intake are the common components of a healthful dietary pattern. Dietary recommendations for special populations including pediatrics, older persons, and nutrition and social determinants of health for ASCVD prevention are discussed.

Abstract
Each year, patients are bombarded with diverging and even contradictory reports concerning the impact of certain additives, foods, and nutrients on cardiovascular health and its risk factors. Accordingly, this third review of nutrition controversies examines the impact of artificial sweeteners, cacao, soy, plant-based meats, nitrates, and meats from grass compared to grain-fed animals on cardiovascular and other health outcomes with the goal of optimizing clinician-led diet counseling.

Abstract
Cardiovascular and cardiometabolic diseases are largely preventable, and are propagated by a poor diet. Poor diet may be due to a lack of supply and access to healthy foods, agricultural subsidies, and marketing. Improving national dietary intake starts with enhancing dietary guidelines, enacting legislative changes to optimize agricultural subsidies and food advertising, and incentivizing a plant-forward diet.

Abstract
Vasculogenic erectile dysfunction has been aptly called the "canary in the coal mine" for cardiovascular disease because it almost always precedes other manifestations of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction and stroke. It is common, associated with the presence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, and impacted by diet and lifestyle choices. This concise review provides an update on the use of dietary and other lifestyle interventions to improve vasculogenic erectile dysfunction and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
