Beta‐blockers in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and concomitant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: Cardiovascular and respiratory outcomes

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
In total, 5084 patients from Swedish registries with both heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were included. Confounding was handled by overlap weighting based on propensity scores for beta‐blocker use. Patients were followed up for 5 years, or until death, emigration from Sweden or
