Effect of comorbidities on outcomes and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor effects in patients with predominantly left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure
Abstract
AIMS: Comorbidities are frequent in heart failure and impact outcomes. It is not known whether comorbidities are associated with outcomes in asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction compared to clinical heart failure and whether comorbidities interfere with treatment effects. Our objective was to assess comorbidities and their effects on outcomes in predominantly asymptomatic populations without previous heart failure treatment of the SOLVD …
