Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction and Obesity

This report describes a case of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in a post-menopausal woman with obesity. The case highlights a metabolic phenotype of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction that commonly manifests in women, with the discussion focusing on pathophysiology, mecha...
