The interplay between heart failure, metabolism and body composition

Christopher J McAloon et al. Br J Hosp Med (Lond). 2016 Jun.

Abstract

A complex interplay exists between heart failure, metabolic status and body composition. The idiosyncrasies of these relationships are poorly understood, but they offer prognostic value and potential clinical utility. Current understanding of this relationship and known clinical value are discussed in this article.
