Key result
Diuretics may be the common mechanism explaining the significant clinical benefits in heart failure mortality and hospitalizations across the SPRINT, EMPA-REG, ALLHAT, and HYVET trials.

The paper hypothesizes that the clinical benefits in heart failure mortality and hospitalizations seen in SPRINT, EMPA-REG, ALLHAT, and HYVET may be linked to diuretic effects.
What do the recently published SPRINT [1] and EMPA-REG Outcome [2] trials have in common with the ALLHAT [3] and the HYVET [4] trials? All four demonstrated significant clinical benefits in terms o...
