Approximately half of the patients with signs and symptoms of heart failure have a left
ventricular ejection fraction that is not markedly abnormal. Despite the historically initial …

Heart failure (HF) is the most rapidly growing cardiovascular health burden worldwide. HF
can be classified into three groups based on the percentage of the ejection fraction (EF) …

Making a firm diagnosis of chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
remains a challenge. We recommend a new stepwise diagnostic process, the 'HFA–PEFF …

Heart failure is considered an epidemic disease in the modern world affecting approximately
1% to 2% of adult population. It presents a multifactorial, systemic disease, in which—after …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of empagliflozin on
diastolic function in a nondiabetic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) …

Cardiac fibrosis is central to the pathology of heart failure, particularly heart failure with
preserved ejection fraction (HF p EF). Irrespective of the underlying profibrotic condition (eg …

Approximately half of all patients with heart failure have preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
and, as life expectancies continue to increase in western societies, the prevalence of HFpEF …

Objectives: This study sought to determine the frequency and magnitude of impaired systolic
deformation in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Background: Although …

Importance Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) with a
pacemaker may benefit from a higher, more physiologic backup heart rate than the nominal …

Ventricular pressure–volume (PV) analysis is the reference method for the study of cardiac
mechanics. Advances in calibration algorithms and measuring techniques brought new …
