Objectives: We sought to explore the association between renal insufficiency and mortality
among women with heart failure (HF) and to evaluate this risk by the presence of preserved …

Objectives: This study was designed to examine the use of cardiovascular medications and
outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) and renal dysfunction. Background: Renal …

Background—The prevalence, prognostic import, and impact of renal insufficiency on the

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Most clinical trials that demonstrated the negative
impact of renal failure on survival in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) included a …

BACKGROUND: Although heart failure (HF) is frequent and causes significant morbidity and
mortality in women, data on the prognosis of women hospitalized for a first episode of HF are …

Background—Although heart failure is common among women with coronary disease, the
risk factors for developing heart failure have not been well studied. We determined the risk …
