Article Synopsis
- Scientists found a special peptide called CTP that can deliver medicine directly to heart cells quickly after being injected.
- CTP has been tested to see if it's safe for use in humans and other animals, looking at how it affects heart health and other organs.
- The tests showed that CTP doesn't hurt heart cells, and scientists found no major problems with using it, making it a promising way to treat heart issues.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents ∼50% of all cases of congestive heart failure (CHF) with prevalence expected to increase with aging of the population. We performed an observational study of all patients admitted to 3 hospitals in the ExcelaHealth care system, Greensburg, PA, with a primary diagnosis of HFpEF heart failure exacerbation between January 2014 and January 2017. Demographic data, laboratory results, and echocardiograms performed closest to index hospitalization were collected.
