Impact of sarcopenia on prognosis in patients with heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection fraction
Aims Sarcopenia, one of the extracardiac factors for reduced functional capacity and poor outcome in heart failure (HF), may act differently between HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We sought to investigate the impact of sarcopenia on mortali...

Zusammenfassung: | Aims Sarcopenia, one of the extracardiac factors for reduced functional capacity and poor outcome in heart failure (HF), may act differently between HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We sought to investigate the impact of sarcopenia on mortality in HFpEF and HFrEF.
Methods and results We performed a post hoc analysis of a multicentre prospective cohort study, including 942 consecutive older (age >= 65 years) hospitalized patients: 475 with HFpEF (ejection fraction >= 45%, age 817 years, 48.8% men) and 467 with HFrEF (ejection fraction |
