Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: bronzeJournal of geriatric cardiology : JGC, 2013
Progressive aging of the population and prolongation of life expectancy have led to the rising prevalence of heart failure (HF). Despite the improvements in medical therapy, the mortality rate of this condition has remained unacceptably high, becoming the primary cause of death in the elderly population.

Sex differences and atrial fibrillation in heart failure with reduced versus preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Heart failure is a major public health problem. Patients with heart failure often experience dyspnoea, fatigue and/or have peripheral oedema. The prognosis of heart failure remains poor, with a severely impaired quality of life, frequent hospitalizations

Sex differences in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: From traditional risk factors to sex-specific risk factors

open access: yesWomen's Health, 2022
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has a higher prevalence in women versus men. There are several proposed mechanisms to explain this sex discrepancy including differences in cardiovascular adaptation to comorbidities and potential underlying

Is heart failure with preserved ejection fraction a ‘dementia’ of the heart?

open access: yesHeart Failure Reviews, 2021
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains an elusive entity, due to its heterogeneous clinical profile and an arbitrarily defined nosology. Several pathophysiological mechanisms recognized as central for the development of HFpEF appear to be in common with the process of physiological aging of the heart.

Heart failure with mid‐range ejection fraction: pro and cons of the new classification of Heart Failure by European Society of Cardiology guidelines

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Currently, the assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the cornerstone of the classification of patients with heart failure (HF). The mid‐range LVEF (HFmrEF) category was identified in an attempt to uncover specific characteristics of ...
