The Prognostic Value of Plasma Galectin-3 in Chronic Heart Failure Patients Is Maintained when Treated with Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists

OBJECTIVE: Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is considered as a myocardial fibrosis biomarker with prognostic value in heart failure (HF). Since aldosterone is a neurohormone with established fibrotic properties, we aimed to investigate if mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) would modulate the prognostic...
