Zusammenfassung: | Aim
Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) is a cytokine highly expressed in states of inflammatory stress. We aimed to study the clinical correlates and prognostic significance of plasma GDF15 in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) vs. reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF), compared with N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP), an indicator of haemodynamic wall stress.
Methods
Plasma GDF15 and NT‐proBNP were prospectively measured in 916 consecutive patients with HFrEF (EF |
