Sex differences in cardiovascular diseases can be classified as those which are specific to
one sex and those that differ in incidence, prevalence, etiology, symptomatology, response …

As specialized compartments of the heart, the atria feature unique mechanical and structural
properties that differ considerably from those of the ventricular myocardium. Beyond their …

Aim We aimed to evaluate clinical characteristics and 1‐year outcomes in hospitalized
patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) from China. Factors …

Importance Lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) levels are associated with poor outcomes
in patients with heart failure. Less is known about this association in heart failure with …

Background Heart failure (HF) is a major source of morbidity and mortality. Fluid retention
and shortness of breath are its cardinal manifestations for which loop diuretics are used …

Background: National guidelines recommend that systolic blood pressure (SBP) in patients
with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and hypertension be maintained …

Aims To assess the association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and mortality, and also the
association between resting heart rate (HR) and mortality in both sinus rhythm (SR) and AF …

Background Digoxin reduces the risk of heart failure hospitalization but has no effect on
mortality in patients with heart failure without atrial fibrillation in the randomized controlled …

Background Beta-blockers in high target doses are recommended for heart failure with
reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) but not for preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Treatment …

Background Heart rate and systolic blood pressure (SBP) are prognostic markers in heart
failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Their combination in rate pressure …
