Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a global health care problem,
with diagnostic difficulty, limited treatment options and high morbidity and mortality rates …

Owing to the overwhelming obesity epidemic, preserved ejection fraction heart failure
commonly ensues in patients with severe obesity and the obese phenotype of preserved …

Background Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) prevalence is
increasing, and large clinical trials have failed to reduce mortality. A major reason for this …

Background E/e′ ratio during exercise is the key parameter in identifying elevated
pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), and thus heart failure with preserved ejection …

Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous
syndrome requiring improved phenotypic classification. Previous studies have identified …

More than half of patients with heart failure have a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The
prevalence of HFpEF has been increasing worldwide and is expected to increase further …

Background Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have
multiple cardiac reserve limitations during exercise. However, no data are available …

Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a syndrome characterized by
multiple cardiac reserve limitations during exercise. Cardiac power output (CPO) is an index …

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) may potentially differentiate heart failure (HF) with
preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) from noncardiac causes of dyspnea (NCD). While …

Heart failure (HF) is a growing health-care problem worldwide, with an increasing
prevalence, high mortality and hospitalization rates, and high medical costs. 1 …
