abstract = {Arterial stiffness has been suspected as a cause of left
ventricular diastolic dysfunction and may thereby contribute
to the development of heart failure with preserved ejection
fraction (HFpEF). However, this association is derived from
a small number of studies and application of outdated
criteria to diagnose HFpEF. This study aimed to investigate
the association of arterial stiffness measured by the
augmentation index (AIx) and criteria for diagnosing HFpEF
according to the recommended HFA-PEFF score. Our analysis
based on data from the first follow-up of the CARdiovascular
Disease, Living and Ageing in Halle study. The current
analysis included participants with available information
about comorbidities and risk factors for HFpEF, parameters
for calculation of the HFA-PEFF and noninvasive AIx
estimated by applanation tonometry. The association of AIx
and HFA-PEFF was investigated through descriptive and
inductive statistics. A total of 767 participants were
included in the analysis. AIx was associated with E/e', left
ventricular wall thickness (LVWT), relative wall thickness,
left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and NT-proBNP but not
with e' or left atrial volume index. However, after
adjustment for confounders, only LVMI and LVWT remained
associated with AIx. Males with a high AIx had a 3.2-fold
higher likelihood of HFpEF than those with a low AIx. In
contrast, that association was not present in females. In
summary, AIx is associated with the morphological domain of
the HFA-PEFF score represented by LVMI and LVWT. Higher
values of AIx are associated with a higher likelihood for
HFpEF in elderly males but not in females.},
