Sympathetic Response to 1-Leg Cycling Exercise Predicts Exercise Capacity in Patients With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Circulation: Heart Failure

BACKGROUND:In heart failure, sympathetic excess and exercise intolerance impair quality of life. In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, exercise stimulates a reflex increase in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) that relates inversely to peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak).

Early Renal Denervation Attenuates Cardiac Dysfunction in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundThe renal sympathetic nervous system modulates systemic blood pressure, cardiac performance, and renal function. Pathological increases in renal sympathetic nerve activity contribute to the pathogenesis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).We

Obesity-Related Biomarkers Are Associated With Exercise Intolerance and HFpEF

Circulation: Heart Failure

BACKGROUND:Obesity and adiposity are associated with an increased risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF); yet, specific underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We defined HFpEF based on the presence of elevated left ventricular filling pressures at rest or during exercise. P<0.001).

Circulation

Intro:Drug Development for Heart failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) is a major challenge facing cardiovascular research due to its complex pathophysiology and existence of comorbidities, leading to recognize distinct HFpEF phenogroups. HFD/L-NAME mice showed altered exercise capacity (p<0.05

Association between locomotor muscle quality and cardiac function during exercise in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Muscle quality and cardiac function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) during exercise. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the relationship between locomotor MQ and cardiac function during exercise in HFpEF. MQ was calculated as peak watts divided by LL%. vs. 2.3 ± 0.6 W/%,
