Abstract
AIMS Transthyretin 'wild-type' amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM) is a differential diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The clinical work-up for ATTRwt-CM is challenging. Considering a combination of clinical variables specific for ATTRwt-CM might aid in identifying patients at risk. METHODS AND RESULTS Sixty patients (78 ± 6 years, 8% female) were diagnosed with ATTRwt-CM by endomyocardial biopsy. Preserved ejection fraction (LVEF >45%) was present in 41 of the patients. Those were 1:1 propensity score age- and sex-matched to a cohort of patients with HFpEF. ATTRwt-CM patients had less obesity (P = 0.01) and higher septal thickness (IVSd, P < 0.01) as well as more diastolic dysfunction (E/e', P < 0.01). On multivariable regression IVSd > 14 mm, E/e' > 14 and absence of obesity (P > 0.01 for all) were identified as predictors for ATTRwt-CM. A weighted point-based score was derived with IVSd > 14 mm = 1 point; absence of obesity = 2 points; and E/e' > 14 = 3 points. Area under the curve (AUC) for the summation score was 0.91 (0.84-0.97, P < 0.01) and a score of more than 3 points predicted ATTRwt-CM with good sensitivity (78%) and specificity (90%). The score was validated in an external cohort of 142 patients with ATTRwt-CM and 419 HFpEF patients showing sufficient accuracy (AUC 0.91, 0.88-0.94, P < 0.01). A value greater than 3 points demonstrated a high sensitivity (93%) and a negative predictive value of 97%. CONCLUSIONS A score based on basic clinical and echocardiographic features helps to distinguish ATTRwt-CM from typical HFpEF. This could facilitate the diagnostic work-up for these patients and enable earlier disease screening on a large scale.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure-related cardiogenic shock (HF-CS) accounts for a significant proportion of all CS cases. Nevertheless, there is a lack of evidence on sex-related differences in HF-CS, especially regarding use of treatment and mortality risk in women vs. men. This study aimed to investigate potential differences in clinical presentation, use of treatments, and mortality between women and men with HF-CS. METHODS In this international observational study, patients with HF-CS (without acute myocardial infarction) from 16 tertiary-care centers in five countries were enrolled between 2010 and 2021. Logistic and Cox regression models were used to assess differences in clinical presentation, use of treatments, and 30-day mortality in women vs. men with HF-CS. RESULTS N = 1030 patients with HF-CS were analyzed, of whom 290 (28.2%) were women. Compared to men, women were more likely to be older, less likely to have a known history of heart failure or cardiovascular risk factors, and lower rates of highly depressed left ventricular ejection fraction and renal dysfunction. Nevertheless, CS severity as well as use of treatments were comparable, and female sex was not independently associated with 30-day mortality (53.0% vs. 50.8%; adjusted HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.75-1.19). CONCLUSIONS In this large HF-CS registry, sex disparities in risk factors and clinical presentation were observed. Despite these differences, the use of treatments was comparable, and both sexes exhibited similarly high mortality rates. Further research is necessary to evaluate if sex-tailored treatment, accounting for the differences in cardiovascular risk factors and clinical presentation, might improve outcomes in HF-CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in non-ischaemic cardiogenic shock (CS) is predominantly guided by shock-specific markers, and not by markers of cardiac function. We hypothesise that left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) can identify patients with a higher likelihood to benefit from MCS and thus help to optimise their expected benefit. METHODS Patients with non-ischaemic CS and available data on LVEF from 16 tertiary-care centres in five countries were analysed. Cox regression models were fitted to evaluate the association between LVEF and mortality, as well as the interaction between LVEF, MCS use and mortality. RESULTS N = 807 patients were analysed: mean age 63 [interquartile range (IQR) 51.5-72.0] years, 601 (74.5%) male, lactate 4.9 (IQR 2.6-8.5) mmol/l, LVEF 20 (IQR 15-30) %. Lower LVEF was more frequent amongst patients with more severe CS, and MCS was more likely used in patients with lower LVEF. There was no association between LVEF and 30-day mortality risk in the overall study cohort. However, there was a significant interaction between MCS use and LVEF, indicating a lower 30-day mortality risk with MCS use in patients with LVEF ≤ 20% (hazard ratio 0.72, 95% confidence interval 0.51-1.02 for LVEF ≤ 20% vs. hazard ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval 0.85-2.01 for LVEF > 20%, interaction-p = 0.017). CONCLUSION This retrospective study may indicate a lower mortality risk with MCS use only in patients with severely reduced LVEF. This may propose the inclusion of LVEF as an adjunctive parameter for MCS decision-making in non-ischaemic CS, aiming to optimise the benefit-risk ratio.

Abstract
AIMS Heart failure-related cardiogenic shock (HF-CS) accounts for a significant proportion of CS cases. Whether patients with de novo HF and those with acute-on-chronic HF in CS differ in clinical characteristics and outcome remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in clinical presentation and mortality between patients with de novo and acute-on-chronic HF-CS. METHODS AND RESULTS In this international observational study, patients with HF-CS from 16 tertiary care centres in five countries were enrolled between 2010 and 2021. To investigate differences in clinical presentation and 30-day mortality, adjusted logistic/Cox regression models were fitted. Patients (n = 1030) with HF-CS were analysed, of whom 486 (47.2%) presented with de novo HF-CS and 544 (52.8%) with acute-on-chronic HF-CS. Traditional markers of CS severity (e.g. blood pressure, heart rate and lactate) as well as use of treatments were comparable between groups. However, patients with acute-on-chronic HF-CS were more likely to have a higher CS severity and also a higher mortality risk, after adjusting for relevant confounders (de novo HF 45.5%, acute-on-chronic HF 55.9%, adjusted hazard ratio 1.38, 95% confidence interval 1.10-1.72, p = 0.005). CONCLUSION In this large HF-CS cohort, acute-on-chronic HF-CS was associated with more severe CS and higher mortality risk compared to de novo HF-CS, although traditional markers of CS severity and use of treatments were comparable. These findings highlight the vast heterogeneity of patients with HF-CS, emphasize that HF chronicity is a relevant disease modifier in CS, and indicate that future clinical trials should account for this.

Abstract
Objectives Several studies have shown the potential advantage of less-invasive surgery (LIS) for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. This study aims to determine the impact of LIS on stroke and pump thrombosis events after LVAD implantation. Methods Between January 2015 and March 2021, 335 consecutive patients underwent LVAD implantation using either conventional sternotomy (CS) or the LIS technique. Patient characteristics was prospectively collected. All patients were followed up until October 2021. Logistic multivariate regression and propensity-matched analyses were performed to account for confounding factors. Results A total of 242 patients (F = 32; 13.0%) underwent LVAD implantation with CS and 93 patients (F = 8; 8.6%) with the LIS approach. Propensity matching generated two groups, including 98 patients in the CS group and 67 in the LIS group. Intensive care unit stay for the LIS group patients was significantly shorter than that for the CS group patients [2 (IQR: 2-5) days vs. 4 (IQR: 2-12) days, p < 0.01]. There were no significant differences in the incidence of stroke events (14% in CS vs. 16% in the LIS group; p = 0.6) or in pump thrombosis (6.1% in CS vs. 7.5% in the LIS group; p = 0.8) between the groups. The hospital mortality rate in the matched cohort was significantly lower in the LIS group (7.5% vs. 19%; p = 0.03). However, the 1-year mortality rate showed no significant difference between both groups (24.5% in CS and 17.9% in LIS; p = 0.35). Conclusions The LIS approach for LVAD implantation is a safe procedure with potential advantage in the early postoperative period. However, the LIS approach remains comparable to the sternotomy approach in terms of postoperative stroke, pump thrombosis, and outcome.
