Analysis reveals the Human Activity Profile associates with systolic dysfunction in Chagas cardiomyopathy patients, indicating its potential screening utility.
Key Points
HAP score is correlated with key functional parameters, indicating its role in assessing patient health.
Among 126 evaluated patients, 18.9% exhibited LV systolic dysfunction, highlighting the relevance of early screening.
Binary logistic regression confirmed that HAP score is the only functional metric linked to systolic dysfunction.
The study shows HAP score can effectively identify LV systolic dysfunction in Chagas patients with an AUC of 0.713.
