BACKGROUND Increased urinary excretion of albumin is an early sign of kidney damage and a risk factor for progressive cardiovascular and renal diseases and heart failure. There is, however, only limited information on the prevalence and prognostic role of urinary albumin excretion in patients with

While B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and hypoalbuminemia are both predictors of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), whether these markers are correlated is not known. We retrospectively analyzed data collected in 85 patients presenting with CHF, a

Objective: To assess the relationship between serum albumin level and clinical outcome in heart failure (HF) patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 357 consecutive chronic heart failure patients receiving CRT between January 2010 and

In collaboration with the Department of Cardiology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh this cross sectional study was performed in the Department of Biochemistry, Mymensingh Medical College from January 2018 to December 2018. The aim of the study was to explore the

Urinary excretion of albumin and beta 2-microglobulin were measured in 13 patients with congestive heart failure, NYHA class II-IV, before and after captopril treatment for 4 weeks, and in 13 healthy control subjects. The urinary excretion of albumin was enhanced in heart failure patients compared

OBJECTIVE To analyze the prognostic value of serum albumin for in-hospital mortality in patients with heart failure. METHODS A total of 2 430 consecutive heart failure patients aged at (68±14) years were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to serum albumin

Levels of blood pre-albumin (PA) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) in elderly patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and their clinical value in prognosis evaluation were explored. A total of 410 elderly patients aged ≥65 years hospitalized for CHF were enrolled. The

BACKGROUND Patients hospitalized for decompensated heart failure (DHF) frequently experience worsening of renal function (WRF), leading to volume overload and resistance to diuretics. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether albumin levels and whole-body impedance ratio, as an indicator of water

OBJECTIVE To identify baseline predictors of worsening renal function (WRF) in an acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patient population receiving continuous infusion loop diuretics. METHODS Retrospective observational analysis. METHODS Academic tertiary medical center. METHODS A total of 177

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of serum albumin on prognosis and the power of albumin adding information to NT-proBNP in a Chinese cohort of heart failure. METHODS 385 consecutive patients (male vs. female: 292 vs. 93; mean age: 54.89±14.41years; NYHA classes II-V) admitted for heart failure

Mechanical assist devices have emerged as an established therapeutic option for patients with end-stage heart failure. Because preimplant hypoalbuminemia is a known risk factor for adverse outcomes, we hypothesized that change in albumin may be a prognostic indicator in patients with continuous-flow

BACKGROUND Ischaemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a relatively new marker of ischaemia. IMA has not been studied previously in pleural effusions due to congestive heart failure (CHF). The aim of our study was to assess the diagnostic value of IMA in the pleural fluid (PF) and serum for the

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of levocarnitine on cardiac function, urinary albumin (ALB), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and troponin in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and heart failure (HF). METHODS In total, 246 patients with
