Deceased were older, more symptomatic, had more severe LV and right ventricular (RV) remodelling with worse LV and RV systolic function, more often had significant tricuspid regurgitation, anaemia and chronic kidney disease, higher levels of N-terminal pro-b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and they required higher loop diuretics dosages (Table 1). Here, NPPB is linked to anemia (phenotype).
