Pre-existing heart failure subtype and in-hospital mortality in liver transplantation: a nationwide analysis
Key takeaways
This study looked at records of people who had liver transplants. It checked if having heart failure changed the chance of dying in the hospital. It also looked at kidney injury. This is an observational study, so it shows a link, not proof of cause.
