Arch Med Sci. 2010 Oct;6(5):686-8. doi: 10.5114/aoms.2010.17081. Epub 2010 Oct 26.

INTRODUCTION: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a predictor of incident heart failure (HF). However, baseline LVEF is often unavailable in population studies of HF. METERIAL AND METHODS: Of the 5324 Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) participants free of baseline...

Relationship of Physical Activity and Healthy Eating with Mortality and Incident Heart Failure among Community-Dwelling Older Adults with Normal Body Mass Index.

AIMS: Normal body mass index (BMI) is associated with lower mortality and may be achieved by physical activity (PA), healthy eating (HE), or both. We examined the association of PA and HE with mortality and incident heart failure (HF)...
