ABSTRACT: Aims
Malnutrition and inflammation are associated with poor outcomes with heart failure (HF). As a marker integrating inflammation and nutritional status, the advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI), calculated by body mass index × serum albumin level / neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, has been developed for the prognosis of several diseases including HF. The aim of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of ALI in elderly multimorbid HF patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).Methods
The study utilized data from the Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT-HFpEF). Patients with acute decompensated HF and left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50% were included. ALI lev
