Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce the risk of hospitalization for heart failure or death from cardiovascular causes among patients with stable failure. However, safety and efficacy SGLT2 when initiated soon after an episode decompensated are unknown.We performed a multicenter, double-blind trial in which type diabetes mellitus who were recently hospitalized worsening randomly assigned to receive sotagliflozin placebo.

Nesiritide is approved in the United States for early relief of dyspnea patients with acute heart failure. Previous meta-analyses have raised questions regarding renal toxicity and mortality associated this agent.We randomly assigned 7141 who were hospitalized failure to receive either nesiritide or placebo 24 168 hours addition standard care. Coprimary end points change at 6 hours, as measured on a 7-point Likert scale, composite point rehospitalization death within 30 days.Patients...
