Recently, liver fibrosis markers, such as the fibrosis‐4 index (FIB‐4), have been shown to be associated with prognosis in patients with heart failure. The fibrosis‐5 (FIB‐5) index, which assesses albumin, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate transaminase, alanine aminotransferase and platelet count, is a simple liver fibrosis marker that was reported to be superior to FIB‐4 for differentiation of liver fibrosis. This study aimed to compare the prognostic value of FIB‐4 and FIB‐5 in patients with heart failure.
