Sex-related similarities and differences in responses to heart failure therapies.
Nature Reviews. Cardiology 2024 March 9
Although sex-related differences in the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical characteristics and outcomes of heart failure are well known, investigations in the past decade have shed light on an often overlooked aspect of heart failure: the influence of sex on treatment response. Sex-related differences in anatomy, physiology, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and psychosocial factors might influence the response to pharmacological agents, device therapy and cardiac rehabilitation in patients with heart failure. In this Review, we discuss the similarities between men and women in their response to heart failure therapies, as well as the sex-related differences in treatment benefits, dose-response relationships, and tolerability and safety of guideline-directed medical therapy, device therapy and cardiac rehabilitation. We provide insights into the unique challenges faced by men and women with heart failure, highlight potential avenues for tailored therapeutic approaches and call for sex-specific evaluation of treatment efficacy and safety in future research.
