Abstract:
Objective To analyze the diagnostic values of H2FPEF and HFA-PEFF scores for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF)and HFpEF complicated with atrial fibrillation(HFpEF-AF)in Chinese patients and explore the related factors.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted.A total of 835 consecutive HFpEF patients treated in the Department of Geriatric Cardiology,the First Hospital of Lanzhou Uni-versity from 2009 to 2020 were selected and assigned to a HFpEF-AF group(n =267)and a HFpEF group(n = 568)according to the presence of AF or not.HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores were used for retrospective diagnosis and the diagnostic consistency of the two scores was assessed.One hundred and thirty-six healthy volunteers with age and sex matching the patients during the same period were selected as healthy controls.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were established for H2FPEF and HFA-PEFF scores in diagnosing HFpEF-AF and HFpEF,on the basis of which the diagnostic performance of the two scores was evaluated.Results There was no difference in the HFA-PEFF score between the two groups(P =0.070).However,the HFpEF-AF group had higher mean H2FPEF score and higher proportion of patients with the score no less than 6 than the HFpEF group(P<0.001).According to the ROC curves,HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores demonstrated high perform-ance in diagnosing all HFpEF patients,with the area under the curve(AUC)of 0.892 and 0.922 and the opti-mal cut-offs of 4 and 4,respectively.The HFA-PEFF score showed similar performance in diagnosing HFpEF and HFpEF-AF,with the AUC of 0.899 and 0.911,respectively.The H2FPEF score had higher performance in di-agnosing HFpEF-AF(AUC of approximately 1.000)and low performance in diagnosing HFpEF(AUC of 0.885).Conclusions The HFA-PEFF score is applicable in the diagnosis of both HFpEF and HFpEF-AF.The H2FPEF score may underestimate HFpEF in Chinese patients,and its applicability in the Chinese patients with HFpEF alone remains to be investigated.
