In heart failure with mildly reduced (HFmrEF) or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a smaller left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) has been associated with lower stroke volume and functional capacity. However, its association with clinical outcomes remains unexplored. We evaluated the prognostic impact of small LV in patients hospitalized with acute HFpEF. We performed a single-center retrospective...
