Abstract

Hypertension is a major comorbidity in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which remains an increasing global challenge. Cardiac remodelling and dysfunction as well as altered calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis are all characteristics of this disease1,2. However, existing models and evidence on the mechanisms driving this form of cardiomyopathy remain contradictory.
