In-Hospital Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy Intensification and Long-Term Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized for Heart Failure in the Current Clinical Paradigm - Insights From the QHEART-R Study. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Oct 03. [Online ahead of print]Hashimoto T, Matsukawa R, … QHEART-R Study GroupCJ
CONCLUSIONS: In-hospital GDMT intensification was associated with improved long-term outcomes in patients with HFrEF/HFmrEF. Hospitalization represents a critical opportunity to optimize GDMT and improve prognosis.

Risk Stratification for Pericardial Effusion After Leadless Pacemaker Implantation - Multicenter Study. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Oct 03. [Online ahead of print]Komai Y, Minamiguchi H, … Kondo YCJ
CONCLUSIONS: The original RS is useful for PPE risk stratification after Micra LPM implantation. However, the mRS provides better risk discrimination and may therefore be a more suitable tool for use in the Japanese population.

Platelet-Albumin-Bilirubin Index for Predicting Hospitalization and Mortality in Pulmonary Hypertension. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Sep 30. [Online ahead of print]Gelen MA, Yıldız G, … Özer İCJ
CONCLUSIONS: PALBI is a robust, cost-effective prognostic tool for PH. It independently predicts short-term mortality and HFH, offering enhanced risk stratification for high-risk patients in clinical settings.

Stage-Specific Cost-Effectiveness of Early vs. Delayed Tafamidis for Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy in Japan. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Sep 29. [Online ahead of print]Nagata Y, Nabeshima Y, … Kataoka MCJ
CONCLUSIONS: The survival benefit and economic value of tafamidis varied by disease stage. Earlier-stage patients derived the greatest benefit and economic value; however, ICERs remained above Japanese willingness-to-pay thresholds across all NAC stages. Earlier diagnosis may maximize clinical benefit, but substantial price reduction is likely required for sustainable healthcare in ATTR-CM.

Current Status and Barriers to Heart Failure Care in Japanese Geriatric Health Services Facilities - A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Sep 18. [Online ahead of print]Kinugasa Y, Tsuchihashi-Makaya M, … Research Team for the Current Status and Challenges of Recovery and Maintenance Phase Care of Cardiovascular Diseases in JapanCJ
CONCLUSIONS: Concerns over financial barriers, along with structural and communication barriers in GHSFs, drive admission refusals and complicate HF management, potentially limiting home discharge. Improving transitional HF care requires addressing these financial concerns, providing standardized staff education and specialized support, and bridging information gaps, specifically regarding ACP and consultation criteria, between hospitals and facilities.

Circ J. 2026 Sep 16. [Online ahead of print]Arao Y, Kagiyama N, … Isobe MCJ
CONCLUSIONS: Additional morphological factors were associated with greater MR severity beyond LV size and with residual MR after TEER, supporting a phenotype-based interpretation of FMR disproportionality.

Endomyocardial Biopsy and Clinical Outcomes in Acute Myocarditis - Multicenter Cohort Study. [Journal Article]
Circ J. 2026 Sep 10. [Online ahead of print]Hyun J, Kim KH, … Yang JHCJ
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with AM, EMB was associated with lower in-hospital mortality and improved long-term outcomes, particularly among those with FM. Further well-designed prospective studies are warranted to evaluate the clinical impact of EMB and its potential role in improving outcomes.
