The impact of insulin resistance on long-term outcomes in heart failure: a systematic review by Soumya Sri Pichuka

“…However, many were retrospective rather than prospective, limiting the ability to establish causality in long-term outcomes. More high-quality prospective studies are needed because they better establish disease progression over time.Long-term outcomes were evaluated through measures such as hospitalisation rates, mortality, disease severity and functional decline. …”
