Abstract
Aims: Vitamin D status has been implicated in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF). The aims of this study were to determine whether a low vitamin D status is associated with prognosis in HF and whether activation of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) and inflammatory markers could explain this potential association.
