Increased ratio of sST2/LVMI predicted cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction patients: a prospective cohort study.

In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, the relationship between the sST2/LVMI ratio and the composite outcome was linear. A higher baseline ratio of sST2/LVMI was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization in the short-term follow-up.
