Summary

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) refers to a group of symptoms and signs of heart failure, normal or near-normal left ventricular systolic function (EF\>50%), and ventricular muscle diastolic dysfunction and A clinical syndrome characterized by decreased compliance and increased stiffness. The pathogenesis of HFpEF is related to impaired lipid metabolism and inflammation. Epicardial adipose tissue (Epicardial Adipose tissue, EAT) is a kind of visceral adipose tissue. Related studies have shown that extracardiac Membrane fat is related to inflammation markers, cardiometabolic risk and cardiovascular disease.However, there is still no research investigating the the relationship between epicardial fat thickness and Cardiac Function in HFpEF patients.
