Markers of stage B heart failure The progression of HF is a continuum from haemodynamic disturbance to functional and structural remodelling that precede the onset of symptoms. The conventional non-valvular markers of SBHF are reduced LVEF and LVH,2 which have been found to be insensitive for ear...

Diabetic kidney disease is an established risk factor for heart failure. However, the impact of incident heart failure on the subsequent risk of renal failure has not been systematically assessed in diabetic population. We sought to study the risk of pro
