Lancet 1999;353:2001-07Background: Beta-blockers directly reduce cardiac contractility and myocardial oxygen demand. For decades, they were avoided in patients with acute and chronic heart failure over concerns they would facilitate decompensation of the condition. The therapeutic cornerstones of treatment, prior to the modern era of clinical trials, focused on managing symptoms and quality of life with diuretics and inotropic agents like digoxin; however, new paradigms were arising that focused on addressing neurohormonal mechanisms of chronic disease that were over-activated in the failing heart. The first major success came with inhibition of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors whose effect on mortality for patients with mild and severe forms of chronic heart failure were demonstrated in the V-HEFT II, CONSENSUS, and SOLVD trials. Additional benefits were demonstrated with the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist spironolactone in the RALES trial. These drug classes primarily work by reducing afterload and volume retention. Appreciating why they work for improving cardiac performance and managing symptoms in heart failure patients is straightforward when we consider the major factors that effect cardiac stroke volume - preload, afterload and contractility; however, it is also noteworthy the effects these agents have on sudden death. How beta-blockade benefits the failing heart is less obvious (outside prevention of sudden death). Mechanistic studies in patients with chronic heart failure have consistently shown that when beta blockers are used for more than 1 month, left ventricular function improves. Beta blocker therapy appears to restore the density of beta-adrenergic receptors after they have been downregulated by the chronic overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. The first major placebo-controlled RCT to demonstrate a mortality benefit used the non-selective beta blocker carvedilol. The trial was small and not originally designed to test mortality and was stopped early without clearly predefined stopping rules. Furthermore, 8% of total patients selected for participation in the trial were excluded prior to randomization after a 2 week, open-label run-in phase with the study drug, which saw 2% of all patients experience worsening heart failure or death representing 24 patients (the difference in total deaths between groups was 9 when the trial was stopped). The Metoprolol CR/XL Randomised Intervention Trial in Congestive Heart Failure (MERIT-HF) was the first large scale trial designed to test the hypothesis that beta-blockade with metoprolol controlled/extended release (CR/XL) added to optimum medical therapy reduces mortality in patients with chronic systolic heart failure.Patients: Patients were recruited from 313 sites in 13 European countries and the United States. Eligible patients were men and women between the age of 40 to 80 years with symptomatic heart failure (NYHA class II-IV) for >/= 3 months before randomization. They had to be on a diuretic and ACE inhibitor for at least 2 weeks. Other drugs, including digoxin, could also be used. Patients also had to have an EF of /=68 beats per minute.Patients were excluded if: they had an MI or unstable angina within 28 days; had an indication or contraindication for treatment with beta-blocker; beta blockade within 6 weeks; heart failure due to systemic disease (i.e., amyloidosis) or alcohol abuse; scheduled or performed cardiac transplant; an ICD; procedures such as CABG or PCI planned or performed in the past 4 months; 2nd or 3rd degree AV block unless a pacemaker was present; unstable or decompensated heart failure defined by pulmonary edema or hypoperfusion or supine systolic BP 25% deviation of the number of observed versus expected consumed placebo tablets during the run-in period.Baseline characteristics: The mean age of patients was 64 years and approximately 78% were male. Slightly more than 30% of patients were above the age of 70. The average EF was 28%. The average SBP was 130 mmHg and heart rate was 82 bpm. Most patients had mild to moderate heart failure, with 41% in NYHA Class II, 56% in Class III, and only 3% in Class IV. Ischemic cardiomyopathy accounted for 65% of cases and nonischemic causes accounted for 35%. Most patients were on an ACE inhibitor or ARB (95%) and diuretic (90%). Digoxin was used in 63%. Trial procedures: Prior to randomization, the study was preceded by a single-blind, 2-week placebo run-in period. Patients meeting eligibility were then randomized to placebo or metoprolol CR/XL. The starting dose of placebo or metoprolol CR/XL was 12.5 mg daily for patients in NYHA class III or IV and 25 mg daily for patients in NYHA class II. The dose was doubled every 2 weeks until the target dose of 200 mg daily was reached. Patients were followed every 3 months.Endpoints: The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. It was estimated that 3,200 patients would need to be followed for 2.4 years to detect a 30% relative reduction in mortality based on annual mortality rate of 9.4% in the placebo group. This would achieve at least 80% power with a 2-sided alpha of 0.04. Patients were recruited faster then planned and so the final sample size of 3,991 patients increased the power of the study.The study was monitored by an independent safety committee and predefined stopping rules for efficacy were based on all-cause mortality, done when 25%, 50%, and 75% of expected deaths had occurred. Results: The trial was stopped early after the 2nd preplanned interim analysis when 50% of expected deaths had occurred. The mean duration of follow-up at the time of stopping was 1 year. The mean daily dose of metoprolol CR/XL was 159 mg once daily, with 87% receiving 100 mg or more and 64% receiving the target dose of 200 mg daily. In the placebo group, the corresponding values were 179 mg daily, 91% and 82%. The study drug was discontinued permanently in 14% of patients in the metoprolol group and 15% in the placebo group. Six months after randomization, heart rate decreased by 14 bpm in the metoprolol group compared to only 3 bpm in the placebo group. Systolic blood pressure decreased less in the metoprolol group (-2.1 vs 3.5 mmHg).Compared to placebo, metoprolol significantly reduced all-cause mortality (7.3% vs 10.8%; RR 0.66; 95% CI 0.53—0.81). Cardiovascular mortality accounted for 91% of all deaths; with sudden death accounting for 58% and death from worsening heart failure accounting for 24% of all deaths. All 3 of these causes of death were significantly reduced by metoprolol. The relative and absolute effects on death were greatest for patients with NYHA class III heart failure.Conclusions: In this trial of stable patients with mild to moderate chronic systolic heart failure, who were optimized on an ACEi or ARB and diuretic, metoprolol CR/XL significantly reduced all-cause mortality. Approximately 30 patients would need to be treated with metoprolol compared to placebo for 1 year to prevent 1 death. This trial represents a significant win for beta blockade in patients with chronic systolic heart failure. While the NNT in this trial is slightly higher than in SOLVD, it is important to appreciate that follow-up time in SOLVD was more than 3x longer. Limitations to external validity in this trial include the run-in period and stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria. Our enthusiasm is also tempered by early stopping, which has been found to be associated with false positive or exaggerated results but this concern is mitigated to some extent in this trial because the rules for early stopping were clearly defined in the protocol.Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication.

A recent 12-week randomised controlled trial involving healthy adults aged 55-70 yielded significant positive findings regarding pomegranate extract's effect on blood pressure. While the study might not have shown significant differences compared to placebo across all initially measured markers, it revealed important reductions within the group taking pomegranate extract daily. Specifically, participants supplementing with pomegranate extract saw a statistically significant average decrease in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) by 5.22 mmHg and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) by 3.6 mmHg. The researchers highlight the potential clinical relevance of the SBP reduction, noting that a 5 mmHg drop is associated with an estimated 10% decrease in the risk of major cardiovascular events. These findings align with previous research and meta-analyses confirming pomegranate's blood pressure-lowering effects, suggesting pomegranate extract could be a supportive strategy for hypertension prevention in older adults."This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice.""The study discussed was a randomised controlled trial in healthy adults aged 55-70.""The significant positive findings highlighted are the reductions in Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure observed within the group taking pomegranate extract. The authors note the SBP reduction is potentially clinically relevant.""These blood pressure findings are consistent with other studies and meta-analyses on pomegranate, strengthening the evidence for this specific effect.""Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet, supplement regimen, or treatment plan, especially regarding blood pressure management or if you have existing health conditions or take medications.""This channel is not monetized and does not provide medical advice."#PomegranateExtract, #BloodPressure, #SystolicBloodPressure, #ClinicalRelevance, #HypertensionPreventionFarhat G, Malla J, Vadher J, Al-Dujaili EAS.

In a pooled analysis of 16,950 patients with chronic HFmrEF or HFpEF enrolled from 4 global randomized clinical trials, a J-shaped relationship was observed between SBP and the risk of adverse CV events, with the lowest risk occurring at SBP values between 120 and 130 mmHg. A similar pattern was seen with PP, with the lowest risk found between 50 and 60 mmHg. Both higher SBP and higher PP independently predicted adverse CV events. Notably, PP remained a strong predictor of CV risk, independent of baseline SBP.

In this episode, I take a brief look at blood pressure and why it's important to monitor our body's own canals of life. I studied the circulatory system back in 2008, prior to completing my coursework and exams for my qualifications in sports massage therapy and personal training, of which I recall was a far more complex subject matter than I had anticipated. Blood pressure is essentially the amount of pressure circulating against the walls of blood vessels, the majority coming from the heart pumping blood through our circulatory system. We have the following two terms when measuring this. Systolic (max pressure per heart beat) and Diastolic (min pressure between two heart beats). These measurements are taken in millimeters of mercury above the surrounding atmospheric pressure, this is known as (mmHg). Health care professionals often take our blood pressure readings, alongside various other vital signs, with a normal resting BP of 120 (mmHg) Systolic and 80 (mmHg) Diastolic being ideal for adults. Excessively low BP is known as hypotension and consistently too high is known as hypertension, normal is known as normotension. Chronic hypertension (high blood pressure) can cause a multitude of complications from stroke and heart disease to kidney failure, therefore it's advisable to visit your GP surgery for BP testing, or take your own readings at home with a quality automated kit. Lifestyles are an important factor to consider when addressing our BP, from workplace surroundings and driving to household habits and nutrition. We all know that physical inactivity plays a major role in unhealthy BP and as such cardiovascular exercise (walking, running, swimming, cycling, rowing) or even moderate to high intensity resistance based training are essential in the lifelong maintenance of our circulatory system. Stress induced lifestyles are commonplace in hypertension, often brought on by external factors, such as highly populated towns and cities, elevated crime rates, increased road traffic, target driven sales professions, cluttered households, raising children, marriage, divorce, financial problems and mentally/ emotionally subscribing to political ideologies, through mass hysteria social media outlets. As a professional personal trainer I often take clients blood pressure readings, alongside body composition and grip strength, with an eye on reducing hypertension through exercise, sleep and nutritional improvements. Alcohol and salt consumption are discussed during appointments, which clients can immediately make inroads to reducing one or both, by way of complete abstinence form alcohol and removing added salt in cooking / avoiding salt laden processed foods until hypertension readings are lowered. This is possibly more beneficial than a weekly exercise appointment, as salt and alcohol are generally available morning to night, seven days a week, whereas structured exercise appointments are usually one hour per week, or two if a client has excessive weight / body fat loss targets. Look after your heart and blood vessels folks and remember to ask for professional advice if you have concerns regarding low or high blood pressure.

Today on War on Weight, I have Michelle McCoy from the Treasured Wellness podcast. Michelle is a certified Holistic Health coach and specific passions are: Adrenal Fatigue, Auto-Immune Disorders and Spiritual Health.   I'm super excited to have this conversation with her and talk about the foundations of a healthy life and the goal of optimal health for women over 40. When I listened to her podcast, I was like YES, YES, YES!   She spoke my language and reiterated so many of the basic health principles that are the foundations of the program that helped me lose 56 pounds*, OPTAVIA.  There are many ways to get to optimal health and I love having conversations and learning different ways to get there.    Michelle shares some key ways women over 40 can get to optimal health by putting just a few  healthy habits into place.    I love the wisdom she brings to the show today and how it connects the habits of health I put into practice in my life to finally win the war on my weight.   In the book Habits of Health, Dr. A states “a key study was published in the Arch of Internal Medicine. They evaluated over 25,000 people and concluded that by adhering to four simple lifestyle factors, you can reduce your risk of developing major chronic disease by 80%! Those lifestyle factors are: • No smoking • Have a BMI less than 30 • Perform three and a half hours a week or more of physical activity • Adhere to dietary principles such as a high intake of fruit, vegetables, whole grain bread, and lower your meat consumption Optimal and Ultrahealth™ Guidelines. Here are the key parameters we're aiming for: Systolic blood pressure 110–95 or less Diastolic blood pressure 75–60 or less Body mass index 24.9–19.5 (around 20 is ideal; no less than 18.5) Body fat 10% for men; 17–23% for women HDL (good cholesterol) 50–70 mg/dl Fasting blood sugar 75 mg/dl If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times, this book is GOLD!  It's why I give a free copy to my clients with their first order because I don't want my clients to miss the magic of the program.  These books take you from diet mentality to lifestyle change. I have a passion to serve women and help them get to optimal health, so I'm here with resources to help you get to your optimal health whether it's a program I coach or another amazing coach that I have met along my journey. Michelle offers a beautiful holistic perspective on health and wellness for women, and I know you are going to love her as much as I do.   If you are interested in finding out more about her podcast, her services and to grab that FREE Foggy & Fatigued Blueprint, head on over to treasuredwellness.com.   Here's the direct link to EPISODE 80 :  Treasured Wellness Episode 80     EXCITING NEWS:  I've Co-authored an amazing new book called UNLEASH HER.  It releases on October 25th, you can order your personally signed copy from me by visiting coachkeatha.com and clicking UNLEASH HER.     You can also contact me, subscribe to my email list to get a weekly newsletter with great new tips and recipes and check out my new program coming: The Revelation Wellness; all on coachkeatha.com      *In a clinical study, the group on the Optimal Weight 5 & 1 Plan® lost 10x more weight than the self-directed group.
