Associations of body mass index with mortality in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction patients with ischemic versus non-ischemic etiology

Associations of body mass index with mortality in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction patients with ischemic versus non-ischemic etiology

BackgroundObesity could paradoxically improve prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF), termed the “obesity paradox.” Whether HF etiology could modify the “obesity paradox” is still controversial. In the present study, we aimed to assess the relationship between obesity and death in patients wi...
