Zusammenfassung: | NOABSTRACTCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death in the world. The dose of 60 g of alcohol / day has been estimated to significantly increase the risk of developing high blood pressure, arrhythmias, hemorrhagic stroke, and cardiomyopathy. The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of CDT when compared with gammaglutamyltransferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), N-terminal fragment brain natriuretic peptide (NT pro-BNP) and troponin T biomarkers in patients with heart failure.The study was conducted on 59 patients with advanced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (EF |
