In outpatients with new-onset symptoms of HF, LA dysfunction was observed. It might be the initial mechanism in the development of symptoms in HFPEF patients. These findings support the relationship of LA dysfunction with HFPEF, suggesting that the analysis of LA function may be useful in sinus rhythm patients with new-onset dyspnoea.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
