Difference between Cardiac fibrosis and Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Cardiac fibrosis vs. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Cardiac fibrosis may refer to an abnormal thickening of the heart valves due to inappropriate proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts but more commonly refers to the excess deposition of extracellular matrix in the cardiac muscle. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a form of congestive heart failure where in the amount of blood pumped from the heart's left ventricle with each beat (ejection fraction) is greater than 50%.

Similarities between Cardiac fibrosis and Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Cardiac fibrosis and Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Collagen, Extracellular matrix, Heart failure, Pulmonary hypertension, The New England Journal of Medicine, Tricuspid valve.

Collagen

Collagen is the main structural protein in the extracellular space in the various connective tissues in animal bodies.

Extracellular matrix

In biology, the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a collection of extracellular molecules secreted by support cells that provides structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells.

Heart failure

Heart failure (HF), often referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs.
