Distinguishing Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction from Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Phenomics Approach

Eur J Heart FailPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

We identified pathophysiological mechanisms related to increased cardiac wall thickness parameters and potentially druggable inflammatory markers from the TNFRSF in HFpEF.
