Article Synopsis
- Heart failure (HF) is a major health issue in Morocco, and researchers studied the characteristics and mortality predictors of patients with chronic HF to understand its impact better.
- Out of 1,344 patients, the 10-year survival rate was only 34%, with a high mortality rate of 65.9%, revealing that factors such as age, left ventricular ejection fraction, and the frequency of hospitalizations significantly predicted cardiovascular death.
- The findings emphasize the need for improved management strategies in Morocco regarding HF, considering the identified risk factors like male gender, advanced age, anemia, and previous hospitalizations for HF worsening.
Left ventricular non compaction (LVNC) is a rare congenital disease. It occurs due to an arrest of the myocardial fibers compaction during embryogenesis. Myocardial bridge (MB) is a coronary anomaly in which the myocardium.
