Left atrial enlargement is associated with reactive pulmonary hypertension in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: an echocardiographic pilot study from Cameroon, Sub- Saharan Africa

2026-05-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Pulmonary hypertension (PH) frequently complicates heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Although PH associated with left heart disease is often considered passive, some patients develop a reactive component reflecting pulmonary vascular remodelling. Data on this phenotype remain scarce in sub-Saharan Africa. This pilot study aimed to assess the proportion and associat...
