متن کاملAldosterone antagonists and outcomes in real-world older patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical effectiveness of aldosterone antagonists in older patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF). BACKGROUND Aldosterone antagonists improve outcomes in HF and reduced EF. However, their role in HF-PEF remains unclear.

متن کاملHyponatremia as predictor of worse outcome in real world patients admitted with acute heart failure.
BACKGROUND Our aim was to determine if hyponatremia, defined as serum sodium level < 135 mmol/L, is a predictor of worse outcome in a cohort of real-world patients with heartfailure (HF). METHODS We used data of the National registry of HF (RICA) from Spain, an ongoing multicenter, prospective cohort study. The patients were assigned to two groups regarding sodium levels. Primary end-point wa...
