Key result
In women hospitalized with systolic heart failure, a left ventricular mass index >125 g/m2 was a strong independent predictor of mortality (HR 7.4; 95% CI 1.5-35.5; p=0.01).

May aid risk stratification in women with systolic HF; leaves open whether LVMI reduction improves outcomes.
Cohort (n=158)
Hazard Ratio: 7.4 (95% CI 1.5–35.5)
p-value: p=0.01
Mejhert et al. (2008) conducted a cohort in Systolic heart failure (n=158). Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) >125 g/m2 vs. Lower LVMI was evaluated on Mortality (HR 7.4, 95% CI 1.5-35.5, p=0.01). In women hospitalized with systolic heart failure, a left ventricular mass index >125 g/m2 was a strong independent predictor of mortality (HR 7.4; 95% CI 1.5-35.5; p=0.01).
