Benefits of peritoneal ultrafiltration in HFpEF and HFrEF patients [PDF]
Background Peritoneal ultrafiltration (pUF) in refractory heart failure (HF) reduces the incidence of decompensation episodes, which is of particular significance as each episode incrementally adds to mortality.

Can HFpEF and HFrEF Coexist? [PDF]
March 3, 2020 709 Gabriele G. Schiattarella, MD, PhD Dan Tong, MD, PhD Joseph A. Hill , MD, PhD Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is an unresolved enigma in cardiovascular science and a huge unmet clinical need.

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): heart failure with reduced EF (HFrEF), heart failure with mid-range—

Chest CT-based analysis of radiomic and volumetric differences in epicardial adipose tissue in HFrEF patients with and without AF [PDF]
Aims Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been implicated in atrial fibrillation (AF). While increased EAT volume (EATV) and EATV index (EATVI) are associated with AF, decreased values have been observed in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction ...

The Association of Obesity and Cardiometabolic Traits With Incident HFpEF and HFrEF.
This study evaluated the associations of obesity and cardiometabolic traits with incident heart failure with preserved versus reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF vs. HFrEF). Given known sex differences in HF subtype, we examined men and women separately.Recent studies suggest that obesity confers greater risk of HFpEF versus HFrEF.

Pulmonary Hypertension in HFpEF and HFrEF: JACC Review Topic of the Week.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with left heart disease, or Group 2 PH, includes heart failure, valvular heart diseases, and congenital heart diseases. Although it is axiomatic that in PH due to heart failure the increase in pulmonary pressure is directly related to an enhanced left atrial pressure, which is common to both heart failure with ...

Autonomic cardiovascular reflex control of hemodynamics during exercise in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and the effects of exercise training [PDF]
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is associated with increased exercise intolerance, morbidity, and mortality. Importantly, exercise intolerance in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is a key factor limiting patient quality of ...

Contemporary management of heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction: the role of implantable devices and catheter ablation [PDF]
Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome characterised by significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Evidence-based therapies for the management of HF include several well-established neurohormonal antagonists and antiarrhythmic drug ...
