Prognostic value of fibrosis-5 index combined with C-reactive protein in patients with acute decompensated heart failure.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Fibrosis-5 (FIB-5) index is a marker of liver fibrosis and has been shown to have a good prognostic value for patients with acute heart failure (AHF), and C-reactive protein (CRP) has inflammatory properties and predicts adverse prognosis in patients with HF. However, the long-term prognostic value of FIB-5 index combined with CRP in patients with acute decompensated HF (ADHF) is yet unclear.

Methods

This retrospective study included 1153 patients with ADHF hospitalized from January 2018 to May 2022.The FIB-5 index was calculated as (albumin [g/L]×0.3 + PLT count [10⁹/L]×0.05)-(ALP [U/L]×0.014 + AST to ALT ratio×6 + 14). Patients were stratified into the following four groups according to the median value of FIB-5 index (=-2.11) and CRP (= 4.5): Group 1
