Journal: European heart journal PubMed Link: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40891153 Summary: The abstract highlights that while central adiposity is common in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction patients, obesity was not a prominent feature in older Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction trials. The study investigates whether expanded adipose tissue mass significantly contributes to the progression of Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction. Transcript Today’s date is September 03, 2025. Welcome to Cardiology Today. Here are the latest research findings. Article number one. Do obesity and visceral adiposity promote heart failure with reduced ejection fraction? This article discusses the unclear role of obesity and visceral adiposity in the development of Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction, contrasting it with their established role in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction. The abstract highlights that while central adiposity is common in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction patients, obesity was not a prominent feature in older Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction trials. The study investigates whether expanded adipose tissue mass significantly contributes to the progression of Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction. Thank you for listening.
