TLDR
In patients with congestive heart failure the set point of fluid balance is altered in spite of oral furosemide therapy; supplemental intravenous furoSemide does not shift the setpoint, at least not when combined with ACE inhibition.About:

TL;DR: In decompensated HF, ultrafiltration safely produces greater weight and fluid loss than intravenous diuretics, reduces 90-day resource utilization for HF, and is an effective alternative therapy.

Sympathetic Nervous System Activation in Human Heart Failure: Clinical Implications of an Updated Model
TL;DR: Sympathetic activation in the setting of impaired systolic function reflects the net balance and interaction between appropriate reflex compensatory responses to impaired syStolic function and excitatory stimuli that elicit adrenergic responses in excess of homeostatic requirements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of diminished renal function in cardiovascular mortality: marker or pathogenetic factor?
TL;DR: This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the role of the kidney not only as a marker but also as a pathogenic factor in cardiorenal syndromes, whether primary heart or primary kidney disease or both are the initiators of the subsequent pathophysiological events.

TL;DR: The early application of UF for patients with CHF was feasible, well-tolerated, and resulted in significant weight loss and fluid removal.

Value of peak exercise oxygen consumption for optimal timing of cardiac transplantation in ambulatory patients with heart failure.
TL;DR: These data suggest that cardiac transplantation can be safely deferred in ambulatory patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction and peak exercise Vo2 of more than 14 ml/min/kg.

The Limited Reliability of Physical Signs for Estimating Hemodynamics in Chronic Heart Failure
TL;DR: The cardiovascular physical examination is used commonly as a basis for diagnosis and therapy in chronic heart failure, although the relationship between physical signs, increased ventricular filling pressure, and decreased cardiac output has not been established for this population.

Activity of the sympathetic nervous system and renin-angiotensin system assessed by plasma hormone levels and their relation to hemodynamic abnormalities in congestive heart failure☆
TL;DR: It appears that the two systems are independently activated in congestive heart failure but that sympathetic stimulation may be one factor contributing to renin release, and the usefulness of plasma hormone levels is assessed.

Acute Vasoconstrictor Response to Intravenous Furosemide in Patients with Chronic Congestive Heart Failure: Activation of the Neurohumoral Axis
Gary S. Francis,Richard M. Siegel,Steven R. Goldsmith,Maria Teresa Olivari,T. B. Levine,Jay N. Cohn +5 more
TL;DR: Intravenous furosemide, in patients with severe chronic heart failure, is associated with acute pump dysfunction temporally related to activation of the neurohumoral axis.
