Mashup Score: 17Body mass index and survival in people with heart failure - 9 month(s) ago
Aims In people with heart failure (HF), a high body mass index (BMI) has been linked with better outcomes (‘obesity paradox’), but there is limited evidence in community populations across long-term follow-up. We aimed to examine the association between BMI and long-term survival in patients with HF in a large primary care cohort. Methods We included patients with incident HF aged ≥45 years from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (2000–2017).

Compared with healthy weight, people with overweight (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.75 to 0.81, risk difference (RD) −4.1%), obesity class I (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.73 to 0.80, RD −4.5%) and cl
