European Heart Journal - Quality of Care and Clinical Outcomes, 20-36. https://doi.org/10.1093/ehjqcco/qcw025

Aims: We sought to investigate the prognostic impact of co-morbid burden as defined by the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) in patients with a range of prevalent cardiovascular diseases. Methods & Results: We searched MEDLINE and EMBASE to identify s...
