Methods : A total of 512 patients with CRT between January 2010 and December 2015 were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into 2 groups based on serum HDL-C level (HDL-C ≥1.0mmol/L、<1.0mmol/L ). After the follow-up, re-hospitalization due to worsening heart failure (HF) or all-cause mortality (including heart transplantation) was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves and logrank test. Serum HDL-C level was evaluated in Cox proportional-hazards regression models as an independent prognostic factor.
