Trajectories of Waist-to-Hip Ratio and Adverse Outcomes in Heart Failure with Mid-Range Ejection Fraction [PDF]
Background: Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is a strong predictor of mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). However, common WHR trajectories are not well established in HF with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) persons, and their relationship to ...

Is heart failure with mid range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) a distinct clinical entity or an overlap group? [PDF]
Background: The new category of heart failure (HF), Heart Failure with mid range Ejection Fraction (HFmrEF) has recently been proposed with recent publications reporting that HFmrEF represents a transitional phase.

Heart failure with mid‐range ejection fraction: characterization of patients from the PINNACLE Registry® [PDF]
Aims Guidelines for management of patients with heart failure with mid‐range ejection fraction [HFmrEF; left ventricular EF (LVEF) 41–49%] do not exist. Disagreement exists whether HFmrEF should be considered a distinct group. The aim of this study is to

Тhe uncharted middle ground – when the patient asks, but the guideliness don’t answer [PDF]
Heart failure takes up an increasing portion of everyday cardiology practice. The accumulation of knowledge about the range of phenotypes and the therapeutic responses across the spectrum of heart failure leads to dynamic reconsideration of the best ...

Heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction: emerging frontiers in clinical characteristics, prognosis, and treatment [PDF]
Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome resulting from the impairment of ventricular filling or ejection of blood or both, leading to considerable morbidity and mortality. Based on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), the 2016 European

Heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction. Where are we today? [PDF]
Bulgarian Society of Cardiology adhere to the European Guidelines on Heart Failure (HF). The fi nalized studies and many debates and analyses after 2016 are prerequisite to creation of a new guideline for diagnosis and management on these patients.

Biomarker profiles of acute heart failure patients with a mid-range ejection fraction [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: In this study, the authors used biomarker profiles to characterize differences between patients with acute heart failure with a midrange ejection fraction (HFmrEF) and compare them with patients with a reduced (heart failure with a ...

Similarities and Differences Between HFmrEF and HFpEF
The new guidelines classify heart failure (HF) into three subgroups based on the ejection fraction (EF): HF with reduced EF (HFrEF), HF with mid-range EF (HFmrEF), and HF with preserved EF (HFpEF).

Heart Failure with Mid-range Ejection Fraction——a Comprehension of the Disease [PDF]
Heart failure is the final main battlefield of various cardiovascular diseases with huge harm, which can cause all kinds of arrhythmias and even sudden cardiac death. The 2016 ESC guidelines formally define heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction (
