ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze gender differences for the long-term prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods:
A total of 925 consecutive CHF patients admitted in our hospital were enrolled those including 460 (49.7%) female. The mean follow-up time was 3.4 years and the end point event was all-cause mortality. Gender differences for the long-term prognosis in CHF patients were studied by Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis.Results:
The overall all-cause mortality was 27.9% during follow-up period, mortality in female was 25.2% and in male was 30.5%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis presented that the long-term death risk in male patients was higher than female (HR=1.309, 95% CI 1.002-1.708, P=0.048). Subgroup analysis showed that for patients age≥65 years, LVEF<45%and with NYHA grade III/IV, the long-term prognosis in female was much better than male.Conclusion:
Long-term prognosis of CHF in female patients was better than male; female at age≥65 years, LVEF<45%and NYHA grade III/IV had the better prognosis.
