The primary endpoint was time‐to‐HF relapse, defined as the composite of readmission for HF, Emergency Department (ED) visit for HF, or significant decline in LVEF. Changes in medication were recorded and a time‐varying multivariate Cox regression was performed. After a median follow‐up period of 6.14 years, diagnostic confirmation was achieved in 188 out of the initial 200 patients with suspected AiCM.

This study compares mortality rates, baseline characteristics, and the prognostic impact of therapies among participants of the VALIANT and PARADISE‐MI trials.Methods and resultsExclusively VALIANT participants who matched the inclusion criteria of the PARADISE‐MI trial were included in the analysis. Risk of death was compared between trials using Cox regression models. The impact of baseline characteristics and therapies on mortality was estimated by the magnitude reduction of β coefficients using Cox proportional hazards regression models. A total of 9617 VALIANT participants matched the inclusion criteria of the PARADISE‐MI trial (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 5661). All‐cause mortality in PARADISE‐MI was less than half that in VALIANT (4.2 vs 9.9 per 100 patient‐years; hazard ratio [HR] 0.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37–0.46). This difference was reduced after adjustment for clinical variables but remained substantial (adjusted HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.58–0.80). The most important mediator of this reduction related to covariate adjustment was the use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), accounting for almost half of the attenuation observed. Similar results were found for cardiovascular (CV) death, while no between‐trial significant differences were found in the non‐CV mortality risk.ConclusionsCardiovascular mortality following high‐risk myocardial infarction has significantly declined over time, while the risk for non‐CV death has remained unchanged. This improvement is partially attributable to advancements in CV care, particularly the use of PCI. Continued efforts to implement guidelines and standardize the quality of care are needed to sustain this positive trend.","PeriodicalId":164,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Heart Failure","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The HCM‐AF score was developed to predict new‐onset AF in patients with HCM, though sensitivity and specificity of this conventional tool are limited. Thus, there is a need for more accurate tools to predict new‐onset AF in HCM. The objective of the present study was to develop a better model to predict new‐onset AF in patients with HCM using machine learning (ML).Methods and resultsIn this prospective, multicentre cohort study, we enrolled 1069 patients with HCM without a prior history of AF. We built a ML model (logistic regression with Lasso regularization) using clinical variables. We developed the ML model using the cohort from one institution (training set) and applied it to an independent cohort from a separate institution (test set). We used the HCM‐AF score as a reference model. We compared the area under the receiver‐operating characteristic curve (AUC) between the ML model and the reference model using the DeLong's test. Median follow‐up time was 2.1 years, with 128 (12%) patients developing new‐onset AF. Using the ML model developed in the training set to predict new‐onset AF, the AUC in the test set was 0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77–0.91). The ML model outperformed the reference model (AUC 0.64; 95% CI 0.54–0.73; DeLong's <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). The ML model had higher sensitivity (0.82; 95% CI 0.65–0.93) than that of the reference model (0.67; 95% CI 0.52–0.88). The ML model also had higher specificity (0.76; 95% CI 0.71–0.81) than that of the reference model (0.57; 95% CI 0.41–0.70). Among the most important clinical variables included in the ML‐based model were left atrial volume and diameter, left ventricular outflow tract gradient with exercise stress and at rest, late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, peak heart rate during exercise stress, age at diagnosis, positive genotype, diabetes mellitus, and end‐stage renal disease.ConclusionOur ML model showed superior performance compared to the conventional HCM‐AF score for the prediction of new‐onset AF in patients with HCM.","PeriodicalId":164,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Heart Failure","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":18.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Eligible patients were those ≥12 h and ≤14 days following acute MI, with an LVEF &lt;45% by MRI. Patients were randomized to empagliflozin 10 mg once a day or matching placebo.
