Implications of obesity on clinical outcomes in acute decompensated heart failure across the left ventricular ejection fraction spectrum and right ventricular dysfunction.

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The implications of obesity on phenotype presentation and outcomes in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) are relatively unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics and prognostic implications related to obesity in ADHF, according to left ventricular and right ventricular function. METHODS: Consecutive patients hospitalized for ADHF were retrospectively enrolled. Obesity...
