Motivation· Heart failure (HF) has a poor prognosis and is a
major cause of morbidity and mortality.· Unfortunately, the body of information on risk
information for HF among elderly patients is based to a large extent on older heart transplant patients with more severe conditions and more comorbidities.
· Therefore, data obtained from older cases are less amenable for non-biased studies of HF.

Objectives· The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of
four methods of propensity matching on the relative hazard of mortality among NYHA class III-IV heart failure patients vs. patients in NYHA class I-II.

I. M.Experiments· NG was based on M = 50 nodes. SOM was
based on a 7 x 7 square map, and thus M = 49. CKM was based on k = 50.

Conclusions· Overall, NG resulted in an increased HR for
mortality and explained considerably more variation in Martingale residuals when compared with logit-based propensity matching.
