- Aims Little information is available on sex differences in coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We investigated sex-specific proteomic profiles associated with CMD in patients with HFpEF. Methods and results Using the prospective multinational PROMIS-HFpEF study (Prevalence of Microvascular Dysfunction in HFpEF; n = 182; 54.6% women), we compared clinical and biomarker correlates of CMD (defined as coronary flow reserve [CFR] <2.5) between men and women with HFpEF. We used lasso penalized regression to analyse 242 biomarkers from high-throughput proximity extension assays, adjusting for age, body mass index, creatinine, smoking and study site. The prevalence of CMD was similarly high in men and women with HFpEF (77% vs. 70%; p = 0.27). Proteomic correlates of CFR differed by sex, with 10 versus 16 non-overlapping biomarkers independently associated with CFR in men versus women, respectively. In men, proteomic correlates of CFR included chemokine ligand 20, brain natriuretic peptide, proteinase 3, transglutaminase 2, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A and tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 14. Among women, the strongest proteomic correlates with CFR were insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1, phage shock protein D, CUB domain-containing protein 1, prostasin, decorin, FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3, ligand growth differentiation factor 15, spondin-1, delta/notch-like epidermal growth factor-related receptor and tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13B. Pathway analyses suggested that CMD was related to the inflammation-mediated chemokine and cytokine signalling pathway among men with HFpEF, and the P13-kinase and transforming growth factor-beta signalling pathway among women with HFpEF. Conclusion While the prevalence of CMD among men and women with HFpEF is similar, the drivers of microvascular dysfunction may differ by sex. The current inflammatory paradigm of CMD in HFpEF potentially predominates in men, while derangement in ventricular remodelling and fibrosis may play a more important role in women.

- Background: Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the generalizability of the HFA-PEFF (Heart Failure Association Pre-test assessment, Echocardiography & natriuretic peptide, Functional testing, Final etiology) and weighted H2FPEF (Heavy, 2 or more Hypertensive drugs, atrial Fibrillation, Pulmonary hypertension, Elder age > 60, elevated Filling pressures) diagnostic algorithms and associations with HF severity, coronary microvascular dysfunction and proteomic biomarkers. Methods and Results: Diagnostic likelihood of HFpEF was calculated in the prospective, multinational PROMIS-HFpEF (Prevalence of microvascular dysfunction in HFpEF) cohort using current European Society of Cardiology recommendations, HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF algorithms. Associations between the 2 algorithms and left atrial function, Doppler-based coronary flow reserve, 6-minute walk test, quality of life, and proteomic biomarkers were investigated. Of 181 patients with an EF of >= 50%, 129 (71%) and 94 (52%) fulfilled criteria for high likelihood HFpEF as per HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF, and 28% and 46% were classified as intermediate likelihood, requiring additional hemodynamic testing. High likelihood HFpEF patients were older with higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation and lower global longitudinal strain and left atrial reservoir strain (P<.001 for all variables). left atrial reservoir strain and global longitudinal strain were inversely associated with both HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores (TauB = -0.35 and -0.46 and -0.21 and -0.31; P<.001 for all). There were no associations between scoring and 6-minute walk test, quality of life, and coronary flow reserve. Both scores were associated with biomarkers related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis. Conclusions: Although the HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores were associated with measures of HF severity and biomarkers related to HFpEF, they demonstrated a modest and differential ability to identify HFpEF noninvasively, necessitating additional functional testing to confirm the diagnosis.

- Background: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is common in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We assessed the association of CMD with hospitalization and mortality in HFpEF. Methods and Results: We assessed the 1-year outcomes in patients from the PROMIS-HFpEF study, a prospective observational study of patients with chronic stable HFpEF undergoing coronary flow reserve measurements. Outcomes were (1) time to cardiovascular (CV) death/first HF hospitalization, (2) CV death/recurrent HF hospitalizations, (3) all-cause death/first HF hospitalization, and (4) first and (5) recurrent all-cause hospitalizations. CMD was defined as coronary flow reserve of <2.5. Time to CV death/first hospitalization was compared by log-rank test and recurrent HF and all-cause hospitalizations by Poisson test. Of 263 patients enrolled, 257 were evaluable at 1 year. Where the coronary flow reserve was interpretable (n = 201), CMD was present in 150 (75%). The median follow-up was 388 days (Q1, Q3 365, 418). The outcome of CV death/first HF hospitalization occurred in 15 patients (4 CV deaths). The incidence rate was in CMD 96 per 1000 person-years, 95% confidence interval 54-159, vs non-CMD 0 per1000 person-years, 95% confidence interval 0-68, P = .023, and remained significant after accounting for selected clinical variables. In patients with CMD, the incidence rates were significantly higher also for CV death/ recurrent HF hospitalizations, all-cause death/first HF, and recurrent but not first all-cause hospitalization. Conclusions: In this exploratory assessment of the prognostic role of CMD in HFpEF, CMD was independently associated with primarily CVand HF-specific events. The high prevalence of CMD and its CV and HF specific prognostic role suggest CMD may be a potential treatment target in HFpEF.

- Impaired left atrial (LA) function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is associated with adverse outcomes. A subgroup of HFpEF may have LA myopathy out of proportion to left ventricular (LV) dysfunction; therefore, we sought to characterize HFpEF patients with disproportionate LA myopathy. In the prospective, multicenter, Prevalence of Microvascular Dysfunction in HFpEF study, we defined disproportionate LA myopathy based on degree of LA reservoir strain abnormality in relation to LV myopathy (LV global longitudinal strain [GLS]) by calculating the residuals from a linear regression of LA reservoir strain and LV GLS. We evaluated associations of disproportionate LA myopathy with hemodynamics and performed a plasma proteomic analysis to identify proteins associated with disproportionate LA myopathy; proteins were validated in an independent sample. Disproportionate LA myopathy correlated with better LV diastolic function but was associated with lower stroke volume reserve after passive leg raise independent of atrial fibrillation (AF). Additionally, disproportionate LA myopathy was associated with higher pulmonary artery systolic pressure, higher pulmonary vascular resistance, and lower coronary flow reserve. Of 248 proteins, we identified and validated 5 proteins (involved in cardiomyocyte stretch, extracellular matrix remodeling, and inflammation) that were associated with disproportionate LA myopathy independent of AF. In HFpEF, LA myopathy may exist out of proportion to LV myopathy. Disproportionate LA myopathy is a distinct HFpEF subtype associated with worse hemodynamics and a distinct proteomic signature, independent of AF.

- Aims In heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), regional heterogeneity of clinical phenotypes is increasingly recognized, with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) potentially being a common shared feature. We sought to determine the regional differences in clinical characteristics and prevalence of CMD in HFpEF.Methods and results We analysed clinical characteristics and CMD in 202 patients with stable HFpEF (left ventricular ejection fraction >= 40%) in Finland, Singapore, Sweden, and United States in the multicentre PROMIS-HFpEF study. Patients with unrevascularized macrovascular coronary artery disease were excluded. CMD was assessed using Doppler echocardiography and defined as coronary flow reserve (adenosine-induced vs. resting flow) < 2.5. Patients from Singapore had the lowest body mass index yet highest prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and diabetes; patients from Finland and Sweden were oldest, with the most atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease, and high smoking rates; and those from United States were youngest and most obese. The prevalence of CMD was 88% in Finland, 80% in Singapore, 77% in Sweden, and 59% in the United States; however, non-significant after adjustment for age, sex, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, smoking, left atrial reservoir strain, and atrial fibrillation. Associations between CMD and clinical characteristics did not differ based on region (interaction analysis).Conclusions Despite regional differences in clinical characteristics, CMD was present in the majority of patients with HFpEF across different regions of the world with the lowest prevalence in the United States. This difference was explained by differences in patient characteristics. CMD could be a common therapeutic target across regions.
