Obesity in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: Insights from the REDUCE LAP?HF II trial

European Journal of Heart Failure

Increasing severity of obesity is associated with multiple characteristics that may contribute to the development or worsening of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). of patients had BMI ≥30 kg/m 2. Strain measurements in all four chambers were maintained as BMI increased. Overall, 60.9%

Machine learning approach to identify phenotypes in patients with ischaemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Aims Patients experiencing ischaemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) represent a diverse group. Association between clusters and the composite of (i) heart failure hospitalization or all-cause death, (ii) cardiovascular (CV) hospitalization or all-cause death, and (iii) major adverse CV events was assessed.

Abstract 4146852: Impact of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Outcomes

Circulation

Introduction:The demographics of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is shifting towards older age, increased comorbidity burden, and an increase in the risk of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction. Results:Overall, 140 participants were identified (age: 56±16 years; BMI: 30.04±8.04 2022 were included.

Abstract WP294: Racial Disparities among the risk of Stroke and other clinical outcomes post Infective Endocarditis: A Propensity Matched Analysis

Stroke Journal

Propensity score-matched analysis (PSM) (1:1) was performed on age, gender, BMI, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, hemoglobin level, LDL level, left ventricular ejection fraction and various drugs including beta blockers, ACEi and ARBi. The mean age of patients was comparable between both groups (59.8
