Despite its proven efficacy, discerning the specific subset of individuals who can enjoy clinical advantages from vericiguat therapy in contemporary real-world clinical practice, particularly among the individuals undergoing \"quadruple medical therapy\" comprising administration of a beta-blocker, angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, remains an unresolved query. This study involved patients undergoing 3-month vericiguat therapy alongside complete quadruple medical therapy in a contemporary real-world clinical practice. Baseline characteristics associated with the primary outcome, defined as a reduction in serum NT pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels over the 3-month therapeutic duration, were scrutinized. A cohort of 24 patients (median age: 66 years; 20 males) were included. All participants diligently adhered to the 3-month vericiguat therapy in conjunction with the quadruple medical regimen. A higher baseline systolic blood pressure emerged as an independent factor linked to the primary outcome, yielding an adjusted odds ratio of 1.31 (95% confidence interval: 1.03-1.65, <i>P</i> = 0.026) at a threshold of 105 mmHg. This threshold notably stratified the trajectories of serum NT pro-BNP levels during the 3-month vericiguat therapy. In conclusion, preservation of baseline systolic blood pressure emerged as a pivotal determinant for reaping the clinical benefits from mid-term vericiguat therapy among patients with systolic heart failure receiving quadruple medical therapy.</p>\u0000<p></p>","PeriodicalId":13711,"journal":{"name":"International heart journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141612969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
