Usefulness of Heart Rate at Rest as a Predictor of Mortality, Hospitalization for Heart Failure, Myocardial Infarction, and Stroke in Patients With Stable Coronary Heart Disease (Data from the Treating to New Targets [TNT] Trial)

The heart rate at rest (HR) is a predictor of cardiovascular (CV) mortality. However, its effect on nonfatal CV events is unknown. The aim of the present post hoc analysis of the Treating New Targets (TNT) trial was to assess the effect of the HR at rest on major CV events in patients with stable co...
