Plasma sCD14 was independently associated with incident heart failure, particularly stronger for HFpEF compared to other inflammatory markers.
Is plasma sCD14 associated with incident heart failure and its subtypes in older adults?
Elevated plasma sCD14 is independently associated with an increased risk of incident HF, specifically HFpEF, in older adults.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Plasma sCD14 was associated with incident HF independently and numerically more strongly than other major inflammatory markers. This association was only observed with HFpEF in the subset with classifiable HF subtypes. Pending replication, these findings have potentially important therapeutic implications.
