However, plasma sTREM2 levels in patients with acute decompensated heart failure and their possible association with adverse clinical outcomes have not been fully characterized.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In this retrospective cohort study, we enrolled patients with acute decompensated heart failure between 2020 and 2023 and defined a composite endpoint comprising all-cause mortality and heart failure\u2013related readmission. Baseline plasma sTREM2 levels were compared across clinical categories and acute decompensated heart failure phenotypes using appropriate statistical tests. The prognostic value of sTREM2 was evaluated using Kaplan\u2013Meier survival curves, restricted cubic splines, and Cox proportional hazards regression models. Model calibration was validated using bootstrap-corrected plots with 1000 resamples. Furthermore, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, net reclassification improvement, and integrated discrimination improvement were used to assess the incremental predictive value of sTREM2 over N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. Finally, subgroup analyses were performed to assess the robustness of the findings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 128 patients (median age, 75.5 years) were enrolled, with 58 (45.3%) reaching the composite endpoint during follow-up. Plasma sTREM2 levels were significantly higher in patients with acute decompensated heart failure than in healthy controls (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P\u2009<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\u2009<\/jats:italic>\n                      0.001) and showed a progressive increase with worsening New York Heart Association functional class. Multivariable Cox regression analysis demonstrated that each 50\u2009pg\/mL increment in sTREM2 was independently associated with an increased risk of the composite endpoint (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.594; 95% confidence interval: 1.170\u20132.173) and heart failure\u2013related readmission (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.802; 95% confidence interval: 1.310\u20132.480).
