The present critical review was conducted to evaluate the clinimetric properties of the
Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), an assessment tool designed specifically to predict long …

The relationship between the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) and short-term readmission
is as yet unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the CCI was independently …

Aims The heart failure (HF) prognosis in older patients remains poor with a high 5‐years
mortality rate more frequently attributed to noncardiovascular causes. The complex interplay …

Background Patients admitted to hospital with acute heart failure (AHF) are at increased risk
of readmission and mortality post-discharge. The aim of the study was to examine health …

Aims This study aims to (1) define the characteristics of patients with a first admission for
heart failure (HF), stratified by type (reduced (HFrEF) vs preserved (HFpEF) ejection fraction) …

Aims Co‐morbidities are associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with chronic
heart failure, while cardiac iodine‐123 (I‐123) metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging …
