The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the non-steroidal, selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (nsMRA) finerenone (Kerendia, Bayer). The new indication is for adult patients with heart failure (HF) and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≥40% to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death, hospitalisation for heart failure, and urgent heart failure visits.¹ The… View more

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), a condition mediated by intermittent hypoxaemia and autonomic dysregulation, is a well-established contributor to cardiovascular morbidity. A new prospective cohort study suggests that patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are particularly at risk, revealing a high prevalence of previously undiagnosed SDB in this population. The research links the… View more
