Effect of moderate or intensive disease management program on outcome in patients with heart failure: Coordinating Study Evaluating Outcomes of Advising and Counseling in Heart Failure (COACH).

TL;DR: The Coordinating Study Evaluating Outcomes of Advising and Counseling in Heart Failure (COACH) was a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial in which 1023 patients were enrolled after hospitalization because of heart failure as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of 1-year smoking cessation on airway inflammation in COPD and asymptomatic smokers

TL;DR: It is suggested that the observed persistent airway inflammation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is related to repair of tissue damage in the airways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quality of life and depressive symptoms in the elderly: a comparison between patients with heart failure and age- and gender-matched community controls.

TL;DR: HF has a large impact on QoL and depressive symptoms, especially in women with HF, and differences persist, even in the absence of common comorbidities, demonstrating the need for studies of representative HF patients with direct comparisons to age- and gender-matched controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quality of life and survival in patients with heart failure

TL;DR: To examine whether self‐rated disease‐specific and generic quality of life predicts long‐term mortality, independent of brain natriuretic peptide levels, and to explore factors related to lowquality of life in a well‐defined heart failure population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic Value of Serial ST2 Measurements in Patients With Acute Heart Failure.

TL;DR: Repeated ST2 measurements appeared to be a strong predictor of outcome in patients with acute HF, independent of repeatedly measured NT-proBNP, and may be helpful in clinical practice for prognostication and treatment monitoring.
