Sex‐related differences in left ventricular diastolic function and arterial elastance during admission in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: The PURSUIT HFpEF study
Background We previously reported that an index of afterload‐related left ventricular diastolic function, operant diastolic elastance (Ed)/effective arterial elastance (Ea) = E/e’/(0.9 × systolic blood pressure), was significantly higher in elderly hypertensive women. We aimed to determine sex‐relat...

Zusammenfassung: | Background
We previously reported that an index of afterload‐related left ventricular diastolic function, operant diastolic elastance (Ed)/effective arterial elastance (Ea) = E/e’/(0.9 × systolic blood pressure), was significantly higher in elderly hypertensive women. We aimed to determine sex‐related differences in the E/e’‐related indices for left ventricular diastolic function and their related factors during admission in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Hypothesis
Elderly HFpEF women exhibit severe left ventricular diastolic dysfunction associated with different left atrioventricular volume ratio.
Methods
We divided 267 patients with HFpEF (men/women, 116/151) into two groups by age (≥75 years, n = 212; |
