title: The many faces of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
abstract: By definition, patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction are characterized by a normal or near-normal left ventricular ejection fraction, but marked heterogeneity in the extent of other cardiac structural and functional abnormalities exists. Improved appreciation of this diversity might provide insights into prognosis and therapeutic interventions.
