Iron deficiency in a multi‐ethnic Asian population with and without heart failure: prevalence, clinical correlates, functional significance and prognosis

Current heart failure (HF) guidelines highlight the importance of iron deficiency (ID) in HF. Whether HF itself or age‐related comorbidities contribute to ID is uncertain, and previous data were limited to Western populations. We aimed to study the prevalence, clinical correlates, functional significance and prognosis of ID in HF patients, compared with community‐based controls in a multi‐ethnic Southeast Asian population.
