TL;DR: HF and/or LVSD is common in the general contemporary MI population and precedes 80.3% of all in-hospital deaths after MI, and survivors of early MI-associated HF and or LVSD have more complications, longer hospitalisations, and are more likely to die during hospitalisation.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that at present there is no evidence for weight reduction in overweight/obese patients with heart failure, and the importance of prevention of cardiac cachexia is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Assessment of the benefit of allopurinol treatment in a large cohort of heart failure patients found it to be safe and effective to treat hyperuricemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Worse prognosis of real‐world patients with acute heart failure from the Czech AHEAD registry in comparison to patients from the RELAX‐AHF trial
Jindrich Spinar,Jiri Jarkovsky,Lenka Špinarová,Jiri Vitovec,Aleš Linhart,Petr Widimsky,Roman Miklík,Kamil Zeman,Jan Belohlavek,Filip Málek,Cestmir Cihalik,Jiri Spac,Marian Felsoci,Petr Ostadal,Ladislav Dušek,Jiri Kettner,Jan Václavík,Simona Littnerová,Zdeněk Monhart,Josef Malek,Jiri Parenica +20 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to compare clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients from the AHEAD registry who met criteria of the RELAX‐AHF trial (relax‐comparable group) with the same characteristics and outcome of patients who did not meet those criteria (Relax‐non‐com comparable group).
