Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the association between body composition, lipid profiles, and clinical outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients, focusing on survival rates over 24 months.
- Findings showed that patients with better functional classifications (NYHA I/II) and those without chronic kidney disease (CKD) had significantly higher survival rates.
- Increased fat mass index and dyslipidemia were identified as predictors of better outcomes, highlighting the importance of monitoring these factors in HF management.
