Association Between Endothelial Alterations, Cardiac Function, and Outcomes From Health to Heart Failure: Insight From the STANISLAS, MEDIA-DHF, and BIOSTAT-CHF Cohorts.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a multifaceted syndrome, likely stemming from comorbidity-induced inflammation resulting in endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial glycocalyx degradation's role in the development and prognosis of HFpEF remains largely unexplored. Our study aimed at exploring the association between glycocalyx degradation and diastolic dysfunction and determining whether glycocalyx degradation can predict clinical outcomes in patients with HFpEF.

Methods

Perlecan and thrombomodulin concentrations were assessed in individuals deemed healthy (STANISLAS [Suivi Temporaire Annuel Non-Invasif de la Santé des Lorrains Assurés Sociaux (Annual Noninvasive Temporary Monitoring of the Health of Insured Lorrainers)] cohort, n=1705) and p
