Abstract Aims Elevated plasma branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs) are tightly linked to incident diabetes and its complications, while lower BCAAs are associated with adverse outcomes in the elderly and heart failure (HF) patients. The interplay between body compositions and plasma BCAAs, especially under the influence of co‐morbid diabetes in HF patients, is not well understood. Here, we examined the impact of diabetes on the prognostic value of plasma BCAA and its association with body compositions in HF patients. Methods and results We retrospectively examined 301 HF patients (70 ± 15 years old; 59% male), among which 36% had diabetes. Blood samples for plasma BCAA measurements were collected in a fasting state after stabilization of HF and analysed using ultraperformance liquid chromatography. A dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry scan assessed regional body compositions, and muscle wasting was defined as appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) |
