Relationship between Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Composite Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized with Takotsubo Syndrome: A Nationwide Analysis.

ABSTRACT: The association of traditional cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors with outcomes of Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is not well-defined. This study examined how modifiable CVD risk factors affect composite cardiovascular outcomes in TTS hospitalizations. TTS admissions were identified using ICD-10 codes and compared for demographics and comorbidities using the 2019 National Inpatient Sample. A multivariable regression examined the association of traditional CVD risk variables with adverse composite cardiovascular outcomes in TTS, controlling for confounders including sociodemographic or hospital-level characteristics and other relevant comorbidities. A total of 16,055 (38.1%) of the 41,855 adult TTS admissions had composite cardiovascular outcomes (TACCO). The TACCO cohort was 81.5% white,
