Chronic heart failure is one of the most common reasons for hospitalization. Current risk stratification is based on ejection fraction, whereas many arrhythmic events occur in patients with relatively ...

In a 4.3-year follow-up study, few asymptomatic patients with preclinical left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) progressed to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), with a ...

Echocardiography remains the cornerstone for non-invasive evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function in patients with heart failure. By combining conventional Doppler‐derived transmitral flow ...

Objective: To provide an overview of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF), as well as its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and clinical evidence regarding its pharmacologic management.

Cardiomyopathy is the leading cause of mortality in patients with DMD. Compared with their healthy counterparts, patients with DMD — including those with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction ...
