Fasting blood samples collected at the time of the cardiopulmonary exercise test were used to assay obesity-related biomarkers. Our findings suggest that among the obesity-related biomarkers studied, higher levels of leptin and CRP are independently associated with increased odds of HFpEF, with odds ratios of 1.36 (95% CI, 1.09–1.70)
