Association of anaemia and all-cause mortality in patients with ischaemic heart failure varies by renal function status.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The aims of the current study were to evaluate the association between anaemia and all-cause mortality according to chronic kidney disease (CKD) status and to explore at what level of haemoglobin concentration would the all-cause mortality risk increase prominently among CKD and non-CKD patients, respectively.

Methods and results

This is a prospective cohort study, and 1559 patients with ischaemic heart failure (IHF) were included (mean age of 63.5 ± 11.0 years, 85.8% men) from December 2015 to June 2019. Patients were divided into the CKD (n = 481) and non-CKD (n = 1078) groups based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate of 60 mL/min/1.73 m² . In the CKD group, the incidence rate of all-cause mortality in anaemic and non-anaemic patients was 15.4 per 1
