The Change in Body Weight During Hospitalization Predicts Mortality in Patients With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
BACKGROUND In our experience, the change in body weight (BW) during hospitalization varies greatly in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (HF). Since the clinical significance of a change in BW is not clear, we investigated whether a change in BW could predict mortality. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 130 patients (72 males; aged 68 ± 10 years) who were hospitalized due to ac...

متن کاملPulmonary Hypertension Is Associated With a Higher Risk of Heart Failure Hospitalization and Mortality in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects >10% of all United States adults and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The role of pulmonary hypertension (PH) as a potential contributor to adverse events in CKD remains unclear. Furthermore, African Americans develop both CKD and PH independently at disproportionate rates compared with other ethnicities. However, data evaluating the relation...
