Lower serum chloride (Cl) levels are strongly associated with increased long-term mortality
after admission for acute heart failure (AHF). However, the therapeutic implications of serum …

Background: Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) can be complicated by electrolyte
abnormalities, but the major focus has been concentrated on the clinical significance of …

Abstract Background Lower serum chloride (Cl) is associated with mortality in heart failure
patients and may be more prognostically relevant than sodium. However, the association of …

Background—The aim of this analysis was to determine the long-term prognostic value of
lower serum chloride in patients with stable chronic heart failure. Electrolyte abnormalities …

Background Serum chloride concentrations have clinical significance in the prognosis of
heart failure (HF). Little is known regarding the prognostic value of serum chloride in patients …

Aims The prognostic value of serum chloride level has been reported primarily in patients
with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, and hence, there is limited evidence in …

Background Hypochloremia is a risk factor for poor outcomes in patients with acute heart
failure (AHF). However, the changes in serum chloride levels during decongestion therapy …

Background—Serum chloride levels were recently found to be independently associated
with mortality in heart failure (HF). Methods and Results—We investigated the relationship …

Background—Chloride plays a role in renal salt sensing, neurohormonal activation, and
regulation of diuretic targets, and hypochloremia predicts mortality in acute heart failure …

Aims Prior cohorts demonstrating the importance of serum chloride levels in heart failure
either excluded or had partial representation of patients with heart failure with preserved …
