| dc.description | Heart failure is a major health problem that is increasing in scope. Despite recent therapeutic advances, morbidity and mortality after the onset of heart failure remain substantial. Consequently, prevention of heart failure through identification and management of risk factors and preclinical phases of the disease is a priority. In this context, several studies have evaluated body-mass index (the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) as a risk factor for left ventricular remodeling and overt heart failure. In these investigations, obesity has been consistently associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and dilatation, which are known precursors of heart failure. | uk_UK |
| dc.description.abstract | we investigated the relation of body-mass index with the risk of heart failure in a community-based sample and devoted to increasing of patients with chronic heart failure and obesity based on insulin-like growth factor -1, brain natriuretic peptide role on myocardial remodeling. | uk_UK |
