Key result
A joint prediction model incorporating demographic, clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic risk factors demonstrated high accuracy in predicting the occurrence of HFpEF in elderly hypertensive patients, with an AUC of 0.840.
Why the study?
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction poses a significant clinical challenge, especially in older patients with hypertension, prompting an investigation into factors influencing its occurrence.

What are the risk factors for the occurrence of HFpEF in elderly patients with hypertension?
A joint prediction model using clinical, biomarker, and echocardiographic parameters can accurately predict the occurrence of HFpEF in elderly hypertensive patients.
Chen et al. (2024) conducted a case-control in Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in hypertension (n=145). Clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic risk factors vs. Patients without HFpEF was evaluated on Occurrence of HFpEF. A joint prediction model incorporating demographic, clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic risk factors demonstrated high accuracy in predicting the occurrence of HFpEF in elderly hypertensive patients, with an AUC of 0.840.
