متن کاملPrevention of ventricular remodeling, cardiac dysfunction, and heart failure.
Heart failure (HF) is an all-too-frequent outcome of hypertension and arterial vascular disease, making it a major public health concern. Epidemiologic, clinical, and basic research have identified a number of antecedent conditions that predispose individuals to HF and its predecessors, left ventricular (LV) remodeling and dysfunction. Recognition that many of these risk factors can be modified...

Anemia is one of the most frequent co-morbidities in the patients with heart failure. Its prevalence increases from 4-7% in the subjects with asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction to >30% in the patients with severe heart failure. Renal insufficiency, activation of inflammatory mediators, and treatment with renin-angiotensin antagonists seem to be its main determinants. The results of many ...
