Comparative Study Clinical TrialCombined use of the novel biomarkers high-sensitivity troponin T and ST2 for heart failure risk stratification vs conventional assessment.
To assess an innovative multimarker strategy for risk stratification of death in a real-life ambulatory heart failure (HF) cohort. ⋯ A multimarker strategy seems useful for stratifying risk in chronic HF. However, NT-proBNP in addition to the new-generation biomarkers hs-cTnT and hs-ST2 had a limited effect on risk stratification.

Maximal estimated cardiorespiratory fitness, cardiometabolic risk factors, and metabolic syndrome in the aerobics center longitudinal study.
To examine the relationship between estimated maximal cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and metabolic syndrome (MetSyn). ⋯ Cardiorespiratory fitness demonstrated a strong inverse relationship with MetSyn in both sexes, with the strongest single associative component being waist circumference.

Multicenter StudyImpact of cardiorespiratory fitness on the obesity paradox in patients with heart failure.
To determine the impact of cardiorespiratory fitness (FIT) on survival in relation to the obesity paradox in patients with systolic heart failure (HF). ⋯ These results indicate that FIT modifies the relationship between BMI and survival. Thus, assessing the obesity paradox in systolic HF may be misleading unless FIT is considered.
