Impact of nutritional indices on mortality in patients with heart failure

BackgroundMalnutrition is a common condition that is associated with adverse prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and controlling nutritional status (CONUT) have all been used as objective indices for evaluatin...

Description
Summary:BackgroundMalnutrition is a common condition that is associated with adverse prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and controlling nutritional status (CONUT) have all been used as objective indices for evaluating nutritional status. We aimed to clarify the relationship between these nutritional indices and the parameters of inflammatory markers, cardiac function and exercise capacity, as well as to compare the ability of these indexes for predicting mortality.MethodsWe evaluated PNI, GNRI and CONUT in consecutive 1307 patients with HF.ResultsFirst, there were significant correlations between nutritional indices and the following: C reactive protein; tumour necrosis factor-α; adiponectin; B-type natriuretic peptide; troponin I; inferior vena cava diameter and peak VO2 (P
