Fibrosis‐4 index reflects right ventricular function and prognosis in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Fibrosis‐4 index reflects right ventricular function and prognosis in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Abstract Aims Fibrosis‐4 index (FIB‐4 index), calculated by age, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and platelet count, is a simple marker to evaluate liver fibrosis and is associated with right‐sided heart failure. However, the clinical relevance of FIB‐4 in patients with heart f...
