Sympathetic Neural Control at Rest and During the Cold Pressor Test in Patients With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Hypertension Journal

Hypertension, Ahead of Print. Background:We tested the hypothesis that patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) would have greater muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) at rest and sympathetic reactivity during a cold pressor test compared with non–heart failure controls.

PO-04-036 REAL-TIME CLOSED-LOOP REGULATION OF PERMANENT PACING RATE USING EXTERNAL HOME BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS IN PATIENTS WITH HFPEF AND HYPERTENSION: A FIRST-IN-MAN REPORT

HeartRhythm

Introduction: Patients with ‘heart failure with preserved ejection fraction’ (HFpEF) frequently manifest chronotropic incompetence as well as hypertension (HTN). Cardiac pacing may improve clinical outcomes in these patients. To date, pacing has not been regulated by an external hemodynamic input.

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. l) for 8 weeks. in HFD/L-NAME vs E/A=1.4 ± 0.02

Dapagliflozin and Apparent Treatment-Resistant Hypertension in Heart Failure With Mildly Reduced or Preserved Ejection Fraction: The DELIVER Trial

Circulation

BACKGROUND:Apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (aTRH) is prevalent and associated with adverse outcomes in heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Nonresistant hypertension was defined as BP above threshold but not meeting aTRH criteria. Rates of the primary outcome were 8.7

Semaglutide Leads to Greater Weight Loss in Women than Men with HF, Improves HF Symptoms in Both Sexes

DAIC

The analysis sought to determine whether phenotypic features and treatment effects of semaglutide vary by sex in obesity-related heart failure ( HF ) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It also lowered their systolic blood pressure and waist circumference. vs -7.2%.

Association Between Cardiometabolic Comorbidity Burden and Outcomes in Heart Failure

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundCardiometabolic comorbidities such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension are highly prevalent in heart failure (HF). Severely uncontrolled comorbidities were defined as systolic blood pressure 160 mm Hg, hemoglobin A1c 8%, and body mass index 35 kg/m2. Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print.
