Association between growth differentiation factor-15 and adverse outcomes among patients with heart failure: A systematic literature review.

ABSTRACT: Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is an emerging biomarker in several conditions. This SLR, conducted following PRISMA guidelines, examined the association between GDF-15 concentration and range of adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). Publications were identified from Embase® and Medline® bibliographic databases between January 1, 2014, and August 23, 2022 (congress abstracts: January 1, 2020, to August 23, 2022). Sixty-three publications met the eligibility criteria (55 manuscripts and 8 abstracts; 45 observational studies and 18 post hoc analyses of randomized controlled trials [RCTs]). Of the 19 outcomes identified, the most frequently reported longitudinal outcomes were mortality (n = 32 studies; all-cause [n = 27] or cardiovascular-related [n = 6]), composite
