Combination of the Fibrosis 4 Index and Carbohydrate Antigen 125 to Predict Morbidity and Mortality in Acute Heart Failure

The FIB-4 index may be a useful indicator in AHF. Elevated values at admission for decompensation, in combination with high CA125 levels, can be used to identify a subgroup of patients with poor short- to medium-term outcomes, particularly in terms of worsening. Further studies are needed to determine the actual utility of the FIB-4 index in the context of AHF.

Abstract

The FIB-4 index may be a useful indicator in AHF. Elevated values at admission for decompensation, in combination with high CA125 levels, can be used to identify a subgroup of patients with poor short- to medium-term outcomes, particularly in terms of worsening. Further studies are needed to determine the actual utility of the FIB-4 index in the context of AHF.
