TL;DR: The objectives of the present study were to describe epidemiology and outcomes in ambulatory heart failure patients stratified by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and to identify predictors for mortality at 1 year in each group.

TL;DR: The manuscript addresses frequently encountered challenges, such as evaluation of congestion and clinical euvolaemia, assessment of diuretic response/resistance in the treatment of acute heart failure, and an approach towards stepped pharmacologic diUREtic strategies, based upon diuretics response.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In the setting of either pressure overload or volume overload, the right ventricular mechanics and function are altered and the RV chamber becomes more spherical and tricuspid regurgitation is aggravated, a cascade leading to increasing venous congestion as mentioned in this paper.
