To evaluate the effect of metabolic syndrome on cardiovascular outcomes in non-obese heart failure patients.
Assessment of ICD and CRT-D patients
Investigated outcomes related to heart failure and mortality
Focused on diabetes subgroup for heightened risk
Metabolic syndrome associated with higher risk of heart failure
Increased mortality observed in patients with diabetes
Early intervention is crucial for affected individuals
Resumen
Metabolic syndrome in non-obese ICD or CRT-D patients is associated with a higher risk of HF/Death, most prominent in those with diabetes, necessitating early intervention.
