This study aimed to evaluate the impact of FPG changes surrounding HF diagnosis on all-cause mortality to inform individualized HF management strategies. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted using data...

.... Methods: Patients aged >18 years with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) receiving either bumetanide or torsemide were included from the TriNetX research network. Patients with end-stage renal disease were excluded from this study. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality, and secondary...

...Pernille Palm; Helle Wallach-Kildemoes; Lia Evi Bang; Selina Kikkenborg Berg Introduction: While Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is less common in men, their mortality rates surpass those of women. The influence of socioeconomic factors and psychological distress remains unexplored. This study aimed...

... (MIMIC)-IV database. For developing a model that can predict 28-day all-cause mortality in HF patients with CDI, the Recursive Feature Elimination with Cross-Validation (RFE-CV) method was used for feature selection. And nine machine learning (ML) algorithms, including logistic regression (LR), decision...

... controlled trials and observational studies on comprehensive nursing care treatments for heart failure patients. Data on readmission rates, mortality rates, and quality of life were obtained and examined. Results: A total of 693 studies satisfied the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis found...

... Cox regression models, applying continuous log e -transformed values, were fitted for the biomarker with all-cause mortality and cardiac death within 2 years or all-cause mortality within the median 7 years as dependent variables. An analysis of MI and stroke, and combined endpoints, respectively...

... regressions with restricted cubic splines, we examined the association between BMI and in-hospital mortality after adjusting for potential confounders. Results: Mean BMI was 21.1 kg/m 2 , classifying patients into severe underweight (<16.0 kg/m 2 , 7.1%), mild/moderate underweight (16.0–18.4 kg/m 2 , 18.3...

... treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (frail: 56.5%, vulnerable: 53.2%, and robust: 68.6%, p = 0.014). 12-month mortality was higher among frail patients (frail: 24.6%, vulnerable: 21.8%, and robust: 6.2%, p < 0.001). Frailty was associated with a higher mortality after adjustment for age...

... without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) or any other cardiac pathological characteristics. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, and the secondary endpoint was a major adverse cardiac event (MACE). Pooled effects were calculated using random effects models. Results: A total of 27 studies...

It is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Western countries and constitutes the main cause...

..., the all-cause mortality and composite endpoint (all-cause mortality, heart transplant – HTX, left ventricle assist device implantation – LVAD) were assessed. Results: There were 617 (79%) patients with LV dilatation. Patients with “classic” DCM differed from HNDC in terms of clinically relevant parameters...
