Incidence, outcomes, and predictors of new heart failure in syrian conflict-affected population following hospitalization for atrial fibrillation: A retrospective cohort study
Hospitalization for new CHF was common in Syrian patients discharged with AF. The clinical predictors of incident CHF emphasize the importance of integrated management of lifestyle risk factors and common comorbidities in AF patients to optimize outcomes in resource-depleted communities.
