BackgroundHeart failure (HF) and dementia frequently co-exist with shared pathological mechanisms risk factors. Our study aims to investigate the association between statin therapy risks of its subtypes among patients HF.MethodsThe Hong Kong Clinical Data Analysis Reporting System database was interrogated identify incident HF diagnosis from 2004 2018, using ICD 9/ICD 10 codes. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) used balance baseline covariates users (N = 54,004) non-users...
Heart failure (HF) may increase the risk of dementia via shared factors.The authors investigated incidence, types, clinical correlates, and prognostic impact in a population-based cohort patients with index HF.The previously territory-wide database was interrogated to identify eligible HF (N = 202,121) from 1995 2018. Clinical correlates incident their associations all-cause mortality were assessed using multivariable Cox/competing regression models where appropriate.Among total aged ≥18...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between prediabetes and heart failure (HF) of HF with changes in glycemic status. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Patients newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) 2015 2018 were divided into three groups (normoglycemia, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes) according to their baseline The primary outcome was incident HF. Fine Gray competing risks model applied, death defined as event. RESULTS Among 17,943 patients AF (mean age 75.5 years, 47% female), 3,711 (20.7%)...
Whether statin use can reduce the risk of heart failure (HF) remains controversial. The present study evaluates association between and HF in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Abstract Aim To investigate the interplay of incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) and/or heart failure (HF) and their associations with prognosis in a large, population‐based cohort type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Methods Patients aged ≥18 years new‐onset T2DM, without renal or HF at baseline, were identified from territory‐wide Clinical Data Analysis Reporting System between 2000 2015. followed up until December 31, 2020 for CKD all‐cause mortality. Results Among 102 488 patients (median age 66...
