Background Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Serum uric acid (SUA), a product of purine metabolism, has been implicated in HF progression. However, the association between hyperuricaemia and the short-term readmission and mortality in patients with HF remains controversial. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, we analysed data from a HF database specific to the Chinese population.

The heart is one of the most critical organs in the human body, responsible for pumping blood throughout the system to supply oxygen and nutrients. While a healthy heart maintains its size relative to the individual, conditions can cause it to enlarge—a condition known as cardiomegaly or an enlarged heart. An enlarged heart is not a disease but rather a symptom of an underlying issue.
