Trial summary

All consecutive patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with ADHF between January 2017 and December 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. All-cause mortality and MACE were assessed with respect to relationships with eosinophil indices, including neutrophil-to-eosinophil ratio (NER)… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Predictive Value of Eosinophil Indices for Major Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Acute Heart Failure

All consecutive patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with ADHF between January 2017 and December 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. All-cause mortality and MACE were assessed with respect to relationships with eosinophil indices, including neutrophil-to-eosinophil ratio (NER), leukocyte-to-eosinophil ratio (LER), eosinophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (ELR), and eosinophil-to-monocyte ratio (EMR).

Read the detailed description

All consecutive patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with ADHF and reduced EF between January 2017 and December 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. HFrEF was defined as having an LVEF of ≤40%. Demographic data were retrieved from patient charts and the institutional digital database. Patients with an LVEF >40%, NYHA Class I and II subjects, those with advanced liver, kidney diseases or malignancies, patients in whom life expectancy was extremely short and patients with autoimmune, allergic, or infectious diseases that affect the eosinophil indices were not included in the study. The study was approved by the local ethics committee.

Conventional guidelines had been followed for the in-hospital treatment of all patients with ADHF, including loop diuretics, vasodilators, inotropes/vasopressors [9]. Blood tests including complete blood count, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine, electrolytes, liver enzymes, and NT-pro BNP were ordered upon admission to the ICU. All patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography. LVEF was measured with 2-dimensional echocardiography via the modified Simpson method [10]. Data concerning 6-month all-cause mortality and MACE were retrieved from the institutional digital database. The definition of MACE was the composite of total death and re-hospitalization for HF within 6 months of initial hospitalization.

The primary outcome measure of this study was all-cause mortality within the first 6 months of index hospitalization and its relationship with eosinophil indices, including NER, LER, ELR and EMR. The secondary outcome measure of this study was the assessment of MACE within the first 6 months of index hospitalization and its association with eosinophil indices.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Heart Failure and Reduced Systolic Function, run by Giresun University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

mortality (time frame: within the first 6 months of index hospitalization). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
