Abstract excerpt
Heart failure (HF) is frequently associated with iron deficiency and anemia, negatively impacting patient outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the contribution of genetic variation in iron metabolism-related genes to biochemical and hematological phenotypes in HF. An HF population of 182 patients with functional iron deficiency (ID) and anemia was stratified by sex and heart failure subtype, including HF...
