Heart failure & cardiomyopathies

Metabolomics Implicate Eicosanoids in Severe Functional Mitral Regurgitation

ESC Heart FailPublished Cross-sectional study

Study context

Population
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients on optimal guideline-directed medical therapy
Participants
80 patients
Exposure
Severe functional, mitral regurgitation (FMR) vs no or non-severe FMR
  • Severe FMRn = 47
  • No or non-severe FMRn = 33reference
Outcome
Eicosanoid (17) and metabolite (188) levels, severe vs no or non-severe FMR
Methodological detailstargeted plasma metabolomics, untargeted eicosanoid analyses
  • Targeted plasma metabolomics
  • Untargeted eicosanoid analyses

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Eicosanoid levels, severe FMR vs no or non-severe FMR (adjusted for age, BMI and sex)
  • Metabolites did not differ significantly
  • 17 eicosanoids and 188 metabolites analysed

Observational data: associations, not effects.
