Conclusions In patients stabilized after WHF, sacubitril/valsartan led to a greater reduction in plasma NT-proBNP and improved clinical outcome compared with control therapy, in particular across the spectrum of EF ≤60%. (Comparison of Sacubitril/Valsartan Versus Enalapril on Effect of NT-proBNP in Patients Stabilized From an Acute Heart Failure Episode [PIONEER-HF]; NCT02554890; Changes in NT-proBNP, Safety, and Tolerability in HFpEF Patients With a WHF Event [HFpEF Decompensation] Who Have Been Stabilized and Initiated at the Time of or Within 30 Days Post-decompensation [PARAGLIDE-HF]; NCT03988634)

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) : Start at the Beginning 1. First Test: The TSH test should be the initial thyroid test for patients with symptoms of thyroid disease. 2. High TSH: Follow up with a Free T4 test to confirm hypothyroidism. 3. Low TSH: Follow up with Free T4 and Free T3 tests to confirm hyperthyroidism. 4. Additional Tests: Consider thyroid antibodies, ultrasound, or radioactive iodine uptake based on clinical presentation and initial test results. Starting with the TSH test allows clinicians to efficiently evaluate thyroid function and determine the appropriate next steps for diagnosis and treatment. By understanding the critical role of TSH in thyroid testing, healthcare providers can ensure accurate diagnosis and effective management of thyroid disorders, leading to better patient outcomes.
