  • - This study aimed to explore how health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is linked to serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD).
  • - Researchers analyzed data from 51 studies involving over 134,000 participants and found that lower HRQoL scores are associated with a higher risk of MACCE and all-cause mortality.
  • - The findings suggest that regularly assessing HRQoL could improve patient care by helping to identify individuals with IHD who may need targeted interventions to reduce their risk of adverse outcomes.
