摘要
目的:探讨左室扩张对心力衰竭伴轻度射血分数降低(HFmrEF)患者的预后价值。背景:不良的心脏重构可导致左室扩张和心力衰竭伴射血分数降低(HFrEF)的预后受损。其在HFmrEF中的意义尚不清楚。方法:纳入住院的HFmrEF患者(2016-2022),并根据是否存在左室扩张进行分层(男性:左室舒张末期直径(LVEDD) >58 mm;雌:>52毫米)。Kaplan-Meier和多变量Cox回归分析评估了30个月的全因死亡率和hf相关的再住院。结果:在2154例患者(中位LVEDD 49.0 mm)中,290例(13.5%)发生左室扩张。这些患者较年轻(73岁对76岁,p = 0.001),男性较少(42.2%对67.2%,p = 0.001),更可能患有非缺血性心肌病(10.0%对6.3%,p = 0.019)。左室扩张与30个月全因死亡率无关(29.7% vs. 31.4%; HR = 0.933; 95% CI 0.744-1.171; p = 0.548),但与hf相关的再住院风险较高相关(19.1% vs. 12.5%; HR = 1.606; 95% CI 1.193-2.161; p = 0.003),即使在多变量调整后也是如此(HR = 1.613; 95% CI 1.163-2.238; p = 0.004)。结论:在HFmrEF中,左室扩张独立预测hf相关的再住院,但不能预测全因死亡率。
Prognostic impact of left ventricular dilatation in heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction.
Objective: This study investigated the prognostic value of left ventricular (LV) dilatation in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF).
Background: Adverse cardiac remodeling may lead to LV dilatation and impaired prognosis in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Its significance in HFmrEF remains unclear.
Methods: Patients hospitalized with HFmrEF (2016-2022) were included and stratified by the presence or absence LV dilatation (males: LV end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) >58 mm; females: >52 mm). Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox regression analyses assessed 30-month all-cause mortality and HF-related rehospitalization.
Results: Among 2154 patients (median LVEDD 49.0 mm), 290 (13.5 %) had LV dilatation. These patients were younger (73 vs. 76 years; p = 0.001), less often males (42.2 % vs. 67.2 %; p = 0.001), and more likely to have non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (10.0 % vs. 6.3 %; p = 0.019). LV dilatation was not associated with 30-month all-cause mortality (29.7 % vs. 31.4 %; HR = 0.933; 95 % CI 0.744-1.171; p = 0.548) but was linked to higher HF-related rehospitalization risk (19.1 % vs. 12.5 %; HR = 1.606; 95 % CI 1.193-2.161; p = 0.003), even after multivariable adjustment (HR = 1.613; 95 % CI 1.163-2.238; p = 0.004).
Conclusion: In HFmrEF, LV dilatation independently predicts HF-related rehospitalization but not all-cause mortality.
